How can we use CHAR_LENGTH() function with MySQL WHERE clause?
When CHAR_LENGTH() or CHARACTER_LENGTH() string function is used with WHERE clause, the output returns by it will depend upon the condition given in WHERE clause. For example, suppose we have a table named ‘Student’ and we want to get only those names having number of characters less than 6, then we can write following query −
mysql> Select * from Student; +------+---------+---------+-----------+ | Id | Name | Address | Subject | +------+---------+---------+-----------+ | 1 | Gaurav | Delhi | Computers | | 2 | Aarav | Mumbai | History | | 15 | Harshit | Delhi | Commerce | | 20 | Gaurav | Jaipur | Computers | +------+---------+---------+-----------+ 4 rows in set (0.10 sec) mysql> Select Name, CHAR_LENGTH(Name) from student WHERE CHAR_LENGTH(Name)<6; +-------+-------------------+ | Name | CHAR_LENGTH(Name) | +-------+-------------------+ | Aarav | 5 | +-------+-------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
