Modifying Rows Using the UPDATE Statement
UPDATE statement changes rows in a table.
The typical UPDATE statement specifies the following information:
- The to be changed table name
- A WHERE clause that filters the to be changed rows
- A list of column names, along with their new values, specified using the SET clause
- You can change one or more rows using the same UPDATE statement.
- If more than one row is specified, the same change will be implemented for all of those rows.
The Syntax for the UPDATE Command
<source lang="sql">
UPDATE table_name set (column_name = value) WHERE statement</source>
Set clause with math expression
