I have “SELECT … WHERE column LIKE ‘i12.3%’ OR column LIKE ‘i4.5%’ OR column LIKE ‘i16.7%’ OR …
I’m looking for something like
column in ('i12.3%', 'i4.5%', 'i6,7%')
but “in” doesn’t work with wildcards
I do not think there is an alternative, and I understand that since your query has multiple ORs, it will be slow. You might be able to optimize things a bit by nesting inside it another query which first selects only those rows that match
LIKE 'i%'.
