Using the LIKE Condition
- Use the LIKE condition to perform wildcard searches of valid search string values.
- Search conditions can contain either literal character or numbers:
- % denotes zero or many characrters.
- _ denotes one character
- You can combine pattern-matching characters
SELECT last_name FROM employees WHERE last_name LIKE '_o%';
- You can use the ESCAPE identifier to search for the actual % and _ symbols.
SELECT employee_id,last_name,job_id FROM employees WHERE job_id LIKE '%SA\_%' ESCAPE '\';
Using the NULL Conditions
null value的比较只能使用IS NULL或者IS NOT NULL而不能使用=,<>符号进行比较.
