LIKE, BETWEEN and IN Operators

LIKE — Pattern Matching

LIKE searches text patterns using wildcards: % (any characters) and _ (one character).

SELECT * FROM students WHERE name LIKE 'A%';   -- starts with A
SELECT * FROM students WHERE name LIKE '%kumar'; -- ends with kumar
SELECT * FROM students WHERE name LIKE '_a%';    -- 2nd letter a

BETWEEN — Range

SELECT * FROM students WHERE marks BETWEEN 60 AND 80;
Includes both 60 and 80 (inclusive range).

IN — Match a List

SELECT * FROM students WHERE class IN ('9', '10', '11');

Shorter than writing many OR conditions.

Summary

  • LIKE = pattern match (% many, _ one).
  • BETWEEN = inclusive range; IN = match any value in a list.
