What kind of string comparison, case-sensitive or not, can be performed by MySQL?
MySQL cannot perform a case-sensitive comparison when comparing characters. It can be illustrated with the following example from table ‘Employee’ having the following data −
mysql> Select * from Employee; +----+--------+--------+ | ID | Name | Salary | +----+--------+--------+ | 1 | Gaurav | 50000 | | 2 | Rahul | 20000 | | 3 | Advik | 25000 | | 4 | Aarav | 65000 | | 5 | Ram | 20000 | | 6 | Mohan | 30000 | | 7 | Aryan | NULL | | 8 | Vinay | NULL | +----+--------+--------+ 8 rows in set (0.09 sec)
The result set of the following query shows that MySQL is not case sensitive when comparing characters.
mysql> Select * from Employee WHERE Name IN ('gaurav','RAM'); +----+--------+--------+ | ID | Name | Salary | +----+--------+--------+ | 1 | Gaurav | 50000 | | 5 | Ram | 20000 | +----+--------+--------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
