This course went over the basics of SQL queries. It started off as navigating through a database and basic queries. Then it went over everything from filtering data, joining tables, using subqueries, and grouping your data. It used a MySQL database that the Davis Technical College has access to for the students to use.
I think the biggest challenge that I faced in this course was using subqueries. I originally struggled with making sure that I’m calling a table inside the subquery, but once I got that to actually sink in I was able to understand later assignments much easier. I will be the first to admit that I am far from perfect at SQL queries now, because I know I still have a lot to learn about it. But I also am going to be taking a database development class that will give me experience with both building databases and querying through them.
