Certainly! If you want to insert some NULL
values into your database, you can modify the INSERT
statement to include NULL
in place of the actual values for any column that allows NULL
values. Here's an example based on your current Books
table structure:
INSERT INTO Books (BookID, Title, Author, ISBN, Price, InStock)
VALUES (6, 'The Hobbit', 'J.R.R. Tolkien', NULL, 8.99, TRUE),
(7, NULL, 'Agatha Christie', '9780007136834', 12.99, FALSE),
(8, 'War and Peace', NULL, '9781400079988', NULL, TRUE);
In this example:
- For the book with
BookID
6, theISBN
is set toNULL
. - For the book with
BookID
7, theTitle
is set toNULL
. - For the book with
BookID
8, theAuthor
andPrice
are set toNULL
.
Remember, you can only insert NULL
values into columns that are defined to accept NULL
values in the database schema. If a column is defined as NOT NULL
, attempting to insert a NULL
value will result in an error.
DON'T allow to create database with NULL values
Certainly! Based on the SQL code you've provided, which creates a Customer
table with customer_id
and customer_name
columns, here's a simple practical example of how to insert data into this table:
INSERT INTO Customer (customer_id, customer_name)
VALUES (1, 'Alice Smith'),
(2, 'Bob Johnson'),
(3, 'Charlie Davis');
This SQL statement inserts three rows into the Customer
table. Each row includes a unique customer_id
and a customer_name
. Remember that since both columns are marked as NOT NULL
, you must provide a value for each column when inserting a new row.
Also, please note that in your CREATE TABLE
statement, the NOT NULL
constraints should be written as NOT NULL
without spaces within the keywords. Here's the corrected CREATE TABLE
statement:
CREATE TABLE Customer (
customer_id INT NOT NULL,
customer_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL
);
With this corrected table structure, the INSERT
statement I provided above will work correctly to add new customers to your database.
