- 1 A check constraint can also be created or added as a table constraint.
- 2 add constraint for a column: check (gender in ("MALE", "FEMALE"))
- 3 Add constraint for date type column
- 4 Add constraint to ensure that value from one column is bigger than that from another
- 5 Add two conditions for one column
- 6 alter table dept add emp_count number, constraint must_be_between_3_8, check(emp_count between 3 and 8 OR emp_count = 0), deferrable initially deferred
- 7 Check date type column for nullable and value range
- 8 Check nullable and value range for one single column data
- 9 Constraint check with in function
- 10 Constraint check with "upper" function
- 11 Constriant: check value between 0 and 100
- 12 Could only contain three values
- 13 Follow the contraint
- 14 Must be upper case
- 15 Setting CHECK constraint for number type field
- 16 Setting the Check constraint for int value field during declaration
- 17 State a check constraint that check relation between two columns
- 18 Syntax for adding check constraint to a column
- 19 Use decode() function in check constraints
- 20 Violate a check constraint
- 21 Violate constraints
A check constraint can also be created or added as a table constraint.
