Partial String Match
Create Table
-- Create table called adventurers
CREATE TABLE adventurers (
-- string variable
name varchar(255),
-- integer variable
age int,
-- string variable
race varchar(255),
-- string variable
weapon varchar(255)
)
Insert Rows
-- Insert into the table adventurers
INSERT INTO adventurers (name, age, race, weapon)
VALUES ('Fjoak Doom-Wife', 28, 'Human', 'Axe'),
('Alooneric Cortte', 29, 'Elf', 'Bow'),
('Piperel Ramsay', 35, 'Elf', 'Sword'),
('Casimir Yardley', 14, 'Elf', 'Magic')
Retrieve Rows
%o%
indicates we are matching any string that contains an o
. If we wanted to only match strings that beging with Alo
we would use Alo%
-- Retrieve all rows from table
SELECT * FROM adventurers
-- Where the value of weapon contains an 'o'
WHERE weapon LIKE '%o%'
name | age | race | weapon |
---|---|---|---|
Alooneric Cortte | 29 | Elf | Bow |
Piperel Ramsay | 35 | Elf | Sword |
