SQL Databases CPDD Computer Education Unit Version: Mar 2018 2 Structured Query Language Structured Query Language (SQL) is a standard computer language for the operation and management of relational databases. It is a language used to query, insert, update and modify data. For an introduction to relational databases and SQL, watch the following video: Khan Academy (2018, March 23). Intro to SQL: Querying and managing data. Retrieved from https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/sql/sql- basics/v/welcome-to-sql SQLite There are many types of SQL database engines. A database engine is the software that a database management system (DBMS) uses to create, read, update and delete (CRUD) data from a database. SQLite is a widely used database engine. Python’s IDLE comes with a built-in module for SQLite3. History of SQL In 1970, Dr. E.F. Codd published "A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks," an article that outlined a model for storing and manipulating data using tables. Using the article as a premise , Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce of IBM began developing a relational database. By 1986, SQL had become the defacto data query language used in such databases. SQL became a standard of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1986, and of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in 1987. Since then, the standard was updated several times. Most major relational databases support this standard but would have their own proprietary extensions. SQL

Type affinity refers to the preferred type for data stored in a column. This means that you can store any type of data in a column with the recommended types, but they are not enforced. Each column in a SQLite table is assigned one of the following type a
