In a database that has over 1 million entries, occasionally we need to find all rows that have a column name that starts with a number.
This is what currently is being used, but it just seems like there may be a more efficient manner in doing this.
SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE name LIKE '0%' OR name LIKE '1%' OR name ...
etc…
Any suggestions?
select * from table where your_field regexp ‘^[0-9]’
