Operador de comparação SQL

O Operador de Comparação compara dados diferentes da tabela Linguagem de Consulta Estruturada e verifica se os dados são iguais, menores que, maiores que, menores que ou maiores que iguais. A consulta de comparação SQL é usada com a cláusula where para executar as consultas.

Podemos usar um operador de comparação com a cláusula WHERE usando a instrução SELECT, a instrução UPDATE e a instrução DELETE na linguagem de consulta estruturada.

Existem vários operadores de comparação que são usados para executar nos registros armazenados na tabela SQL:

Operador de igualdade SQL (=)
Operador SQL Diferente (! =)
Operador menor que SQL (<)
SQL Maior que Operador (>)
SQL menor que igual ao operador (<=)
SQL maior que igual ao operador (>=)

Vamos mergulhar fundo no SQL COMPARISON OPERATOR

Operador igual de SQL

O operador Equal é uma consulta mais usada em consultas SQL. Este operador exibe apenas os dados que correspondem a critérios específicos na consulta.

Sintaxe para acessar dados da tabela usando o operador EQUAL

SELECT * FROM TABLENAME WHERE column-name = value;

Sintaxe para atualizar dados da tabela usando o operador EQUAL

UPDATE TABLENAME SET column_name = value WHERE column_name = value;

Sintaxe para excluir dados da tabela usando o operador EQUAL

DELETE FROM TABLENAME WHERE column_name = value;

Vamos entender o exemplo abaixo, que explica como executar o Equal Operator na consulta SQL:

Considere as tabelas existentes, que possuem os seguintes registros:

Tabela:Funcionários

EMPLOYEEID	FIRST_NAME	LAST_NAME	SALÁRIO	CIDADE	DEPARTAMENTO	GERENTEID
1001	VAIBHAVI	MISHRA	65500	PUNE	ORACLE	1

Exemplo 1: Escreva uma consulta para exibir os registros de funcionários da tabela de funcionários cujo departamento de funcionários seja 'Oracle'.

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE DEPARTMENT = 'ORACLE';

A partir da consulta acima, estamos buscando os dados de funcionários da tabela de funcionários onde o departamento de funcionários é igual ao departamento de oráculo.

Saída:

EMPLOYEEID	FIRST_NAME	LAST_NAME	SALÁRIO	CIDADE	DEPARTAMENTO	GERENTEID
1001	VAIBHAVI	MISHRA	65500	PUNE	ORACLE	1
2001	PRACHI	SHARMA	55500	CHANDIGARH	ORACLE	1
4003	RUCHIKA	AGARWAL	60000	DELHI	ORACLE	1

As we can see in the output, only oracle department employees’ records are displayed.

Exemplo 2: Write a query to display the employee records from the employees' table whose employee department is 'Oracle' or City is 'Pune'.

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE DEPARTMENT = 'ORACLE' OR CITY = 'PUNE';

From the above query, we are fetching the employee data from the employees' table where the employee department is equal to the oracle department or City is equal to Pune city. The first search will go for the Oracle department as records are done with the Oracle department, then the query will go for Pune city. Here we used multiple Equal operators using OR operator.

Saída:

EMPLOYEEID	FIRST_NAME	LAST_NAME	SALARY	CITY	DEPARTMENT	MANAGERID
1001	VAIBHAVI	MISHRA	65500	PUNE	ORACLE	1

3001	PRANOTI	SHENDE	55500	PUNE	JAVA	3
4003	RUCHIKA	AGARWAL	60000	DELHI	ORACLE	1

As we can see in the output, only oracle department employees' or Pune city records are displayed.

Exemplo 3: Write a query to display the employee records from the employees' table whose City is 'Pune' and Salary is 65500.

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE CITY ='PUNE'AND SALARY =65500;

From the above query, we are fetching the employee data from the employees' table where employee city is equal to Pune city, and employee salary is 65500. Here we used multiple Equal operators using AND operator. AND the operator will return only those records whose both conditions are true.

Output:

EMPLOYEEID	FIRST_NAME	LAST_NAME	SALARY	CITY	DEPARTMENT	MANAGERID
1001	VAIBHAVI	MISHRA	65500	PUNE	ORACLE	1
2002	BHAVESH	JAIN	65500	PUNE	FMW	2

As we can see in the output, only Pune city and 65500 salary records are displayed.

Exemplo 4: Write a query to update the employee records from the employees’ table whose employee department is ‘FMW’.

UPDATE EMPLOYEES SET SALARY = 55500 WHERE DEPARTMENT = 'FMW';

We update the employee records from the above query from the employees' table whose department is FMW.

To cross-check whether the records are updated or not, we will run the SELECT statement.

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE DEPARTMENT = 'FMW';

EMPLOYEEID	FIRST_NAME	LAST_NAME	SALARY	CITY	DEPARTMENT	MANAGERID
1003	NIKHIL	VANI	55500	JAIPUR	FMW	2
2002	BHAVESH	JAIN	55500	PUNE	FMW	2

As we can see, the records are updated successfully; whose department name is FMW.

Exemplo 5: Write a query to update the employee records from the employees' table whose employee city is 'Pune' and the department is 'Java'.

UPDATE EMPLOYEES SET SALARY = 60000 WHERE CITY = 'PUNE' AND DEPARTMENT = 'JAVA';

From the above query, we update the employee records from the employees' table whose CityCity is Pune and department is Java.

To cross-check whether the records are updated or not, we will run the SELECT statement.

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE CITY = 'PUNE' AND DEPARTMENT = 'JAVA';

EMPLOYEEID	FIRST_NAME	LAST_NAME	SALARY	CITY	DEPARTMENT			MANAGERID
3001	PRANOTI	SHENDE	60000	PUNE	JAVA			3

Exemplo 6: Write a query to delete the employee records from the employees’ table whose employee id is 5001.

DELETE FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE EMPLOYEEID = 5001;

From the above query, we are deleting the employee records from the employees’ table whose employee id is 5001.

To cross-check whether the record is deleted or not, we will run the SELECT statement.

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES;

EMPLOYEEID	FIRST_NAME	LAST_NAME	SALARY	CITY	DEPARTMENT	MANAGERID
1001	VAIBHAVI	MISHRA	65500	PUNE	ORACLE	1

As we can see, the record of employee id 5001 is deleted successfully.

SQL Not Equal Operator

The Equal Not Operator displays only those records whose values are not similar to the query's specified value.

SQL Not Equal operator returns those data from the table if the value doesn’t meet the criteria in the given query.

Syntax to access data from the table using the NOT EQUAL operator

SELECT * FROM TABLENAME WHERE column_name != value;

Syntax to update data from the table using the NOT EQUAL operator

UPDATE TABLENAME SET column_name = value WHERE column_name != value;

Syntax to delete data from the table using the NOT EQUAL operator

DELETE FROM TABLENAME WHERE column_name != value;

Let's understand the below example, which explains how to execute NOT Equal Operator in SQL query:

SQL Less Than Operator

This operator query displays only those records from the table which are less than from the right side of the SQL query.

The Less Than comparison operator checks in the query if the left-side value is lesser than the right-side value. If the condition meets the satisfied criteria, this operator displays the right side values.

Syntax to access data from the table using the LESS THAN operator

SELECT * FROM TABLENAME WHERE column_name < value;

Syntax to update data from the table using the LESS THAN operator

UPDATE TABLENAME SET column_name = value WHERE column_name < value;

Syntax to delete data from the table using the LESS THAN operator
