SQL Basics
LIKE filtering
Sometimes you need to filter by some non-numeric column, but not by exact value, but some pattern.
One of the clearest examples is filtering emails so only emails hosted on google will be left (@gmail.com). In SQL it can be done by using LIKE
statement and pattern built by using some wildcards. The most common wildcards are:
%
- represents zero, one or more symbols_
- represents one, and only one symbol.
For example, pattern a%
will match everything starting with a (even single symbol a), pattern _B
will match only two-letters strings ending with B.
To solve the task above we can use pattern %@gmail.com
, as there is usually more than one symbol before @
symbol, but we don't know the exact number.
SELECT * FROM visitors WHERE email LIKE '%@gmail.com'
Please note, that you need to place your pattern within single quotes!
