Question

How do i perform a query to obtain data from a row such that the column “name” has names that starts with alphabet ‘A’?

This is what I have done so far:

SELECT id, title, name, year,FROM table WHERE ?
Thanks

Answer 1

MySQL example:

SELECT id, title, name, year FROM table ORDER BY name

ORDER BY can be used to sort.

If you only want to have names beginning with A, use LIKE:

SELECT id, title, name, year FROM table WHERE name LIKE 'A%'
