SQL Beginner to Advanced in One Hour | CareerFoundry Webinar

[@jayjya0613]

An easier way to explain indexing is to compare it to a book. A book has an index page that shows where to find the topics in a book. So, instead of you going through the entire book to find the topic you're looking for; the index page helps you know where exactly that topic is. Saving you time. Therefore, same thing with SQL queries.

[@MM-jr5sr]

This was a really good comparison,👌🏽

[@TuanNguyen-ed9rb]

I have to disagree with you, your example is intuitive, but it doesn't explain how and why index is fast. Although index has fewer pages than actual table, but what if your table is huge, and index from this table has a lot of pages? it is still slow (of course faster than scan the whole table) to scan all the pages in the index. And in SQL Server, there is a type of index called clustered index, which stores the whole table data in it instead of a seoarate structure beside table data, so it is basically your book with all the pages and no index section. Other point is indexes are stored on disk just like table data, so no hardware advantage. What make index fast is how the data is stored, data is stored in B+ tree structure, which make seek operators fast.

Hello Alex, I just found out about your channel, and I am impressed with what I have seen thus far. I’m currently studying: CompTia A+, Network +, and Security +, in hopes of changing careers from elementary education to the IT industry. Thanks for all the great information! Jalapeños!😊

This is, by far, the greatest Content Creator I've ever found. I'm not exactly a techie, but to avoid ending up on a soup line, I've been learning marketable skills. It's not so common for an individual to be both well-versed in dense techie topics & able to explain it in a brief, understandable, and practical way, but damn, Alex the Analyst... *Thank you*. (No, I wasn't given anything to write this, but am compelled to do so after viewing ATA's content versus those of others, which can be laughably unclear).

Hi! So happy to be joining. Yemi from Nigeria. I decided to make a 360 degree shift from a completely different field to tech so I get to know more and grow in the data analytics. Hoping to have a substantial amount of knowledge of SQL as a beginner.

I started programming around 12 years old. I've been a software engineer for 20 years (C# and SQL mainly). In college I had to take Calculus and Statistics to get my CS degree. Waste of time! I've worked and major Banks and Insurance companies. I don't think I've did much above basic algebra. As long as you know the logic the computer will do it for you.

13:23 What was the purpose of the 'AS salary' statement here? I don't quite understand the meaning of 'naming' an output as it is being used here, since 'AVG(salary)' could do the job, maybe? Awesome work you're doing here, Alex! Thanks!

[@MapleSyrup473]

You don’t have to include the “AS salary”, but it’s good practice to explicitly define the column name when you use a function with “group by”. If you remove “AS salary” from the query it will still give you the same output, BUT the second column wouldn’t have a name (in SQL Server it would display “No Column Name” for the second column). Just a side note: In his example, it would’ve improved readability if he used “AS avg_salary” instead.
