UPDATE and DELETE

It's time to get back to writing queries and consider two more statements.

You already know how to clear a table, add a column, insert data, etc. But for proper interaction with the database, we need to understand how to update and delete individual rows.

For this, there are two statements and types of queries: the UPDATE and the DELETE queries.

Let's look at an example with the medications table:

Let's imagine we need to update the price for a specific type of medication. For example, currently, there's a 50% discount on ibuprofen, and we need to change the price for this product.

Our UPDATE query will look like this:

1234567
UPDATE medications SET price = 4 WHERE id = 2; SELECT * FROM medications ORDER BY id;
copy

ELIMINAR

La operación de la sentencia DELETE es casi idéntica en principio. No obstante, aquí no utilizamos la palabra clave SET porque no estamos cambiando nada; simplemente estamos eliminando filas.

La sintaxis para eliminar se verá así:

Pero te recordaré que eliminar filas debe hacerse con cautela, ya que no podrás recuperarlas fácilmente.

Nota

Si no incluyes una condición WHERE, los datos se actualizarán o eliminarán para todas las filas.

¡Pasemos a la práctica!

But I'll remind you that deleting rows should be done with caution, as you won't be able to simply recover them.

Note

If you don't include a WHERE condition, the data will be updated or deleted for all rows.

In the pharmaceutical market, there's inflation!

The supplier company informed us that we must urgently establish a minimum price of 10 units for the product. So your task will be to update the table so that the price, which was previously less than 10, becomes 10. You can do this using the UPDATE statement.

Brief Instructions

  • Use the UPDATE statement to modify the medications table.
  • Use SET to assign a new value of 10 to the price column.
  • Use the WHERE clause with the condition price < 10 so that the update only applies to rows meeting this requirement.
