MySQL Operations Summary and Definitions

Summary of MySQL Operations

1. **Table Creation and Description**


- Created a table `emp1` with columns `empID`, `empname`, and `empadd`.
- Used `DESC emp1;` to view table structure.

2. **Data Insertion**
- Inserted multiple records into `emp1` and `don` tables.
- Attempted duplicate insertion in `don`, resulting in a PRIMARY KEY violation.

3. **Data Update**
- Updated `empname` for `empID = 113` in `emp1`.

4. **Data Retrieval**
- Retrieved all records using `SELECT * FROM emp1;`.
- Used `LIKE` for pattern-based searches.

5. **Data Constraints**
- Added a `CHECK` constraint to the `addr` column in `don` (only allowing ‘lko’ and ‘knp’).
- Violated the constraint while inserting ‘gkp’, resulting in an error.

6. **Errors Encountered**
- Syntax errors (`craete` instead of `CREATE`).
- Using incorrect column names in queries.
- Violating constraints like PRIMARY KEY and CHECK.

Definitions of Key MySQL Concepts

1. **CREATE TABLE**: Used to create a new table.


```sql
CREATE TABLE emp1 (empID INT, empname VARCHAR(10), empadd VARCHAR(10));
```

2. **DESC (DESCRIBE) Statement**: Shows table structure.


```sql
DESC emp1;
```

3. **INSERT INTO**: Adds new records.


```sql
INSERT INTO emp1 VALUES (102, 'aman', 'lko1');
```

4. **Primary Key Constraint**: Ensures uniqueness.


```sql
CREATE TABLE don (id INT PRIMARY KEY, name VARCHAR(45));
```

5. **CHECK Constraint**: Limits allowed values.


```sql
ALTER TABLE don ADD addr VARCHAR(50) CHECK (addr IN ('lko', 'knp'));
```

6. **UPDATE Statement**: Modifies existing records.


```sql
UPDATE emp1 SET empname = 'alok kumar' WHERE empID = 113;
```

7. **DELETE Statement**: Removes records.


```sql
DELETE FROM emp1 WHERE empID = 101;
```

8. **SELECT Statement**: Retrieves data.


```sql
SELECT * FROM emp1;
```

9. **LIKE Operator**: Searches with patterns.


```sql
SELECT * FROM emp1 WHERE empname LIKE 'a%';
```

10. **Error Handling**: Common errors include syntax mistakes, incorrect column names,
and constraint violations.
