It can be illustrated with the help of an example given below −ExampleSuppose we have a table named ‘car’ which can have the fix syntax registration number like two letters, a dash, three digits, a dash, two letters as follows −mysql> Create table car (number char(9)); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.32 sec) mysql> Insert into car values('AB-235-YZ'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.10 sec)The above value is a valid one but what ...
Read MoreHow to disable MySQL foreign key checks and what are the benefits of\\ndisabling it?
We can disable foreign key checks with the help of the following statement −mysql> Set foreign_key_checks = 0; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)And we can enable it with the help of the following statement −mysql> Set foreign_key_checks = 1; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)Some benefits of disabling foreign key checks are as follows −After disabling foreign key checks we can load data into parent and child table in any order. Otherwise, we must have to load the data first in the parent table and then in the child table.Without disabling foreign key checks we cannot drop ...

Following program shows how to remove negative numbers from an array.Exampleimport java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Iterator; import java.util.List; public class Tester { public static void main(String[] args) { List objArray = new ArrayList(); objArray.clear(); objArray.add(2); objArray.add(-3); objArray.add(4); System.out.println("Array before removing an element "+objArray); Iterator iterator = objArray.iterator(); while(iterator.hasNext()) { Integer next = iterator.next(); if(next < 0) { iterator.remove(); } } System.out.println("Array after removing an element"+objArray); } }OutputArray before removing an element [ 2, -3, 4 ] Array after removing an element [ 2, 4 ]
Read MoreWhat happens if the substring is there for more than one time in the string given as the arguments of LOCATE() function?
In case if the substring is there for more than one time in the string then MySQL LOCATE() function will return the position of the first occurrence of the substring.Examplemysql> Select LOCATE('good','Ram is a good boy. Is Ram a good boy?')As Result; +--------+ | Result | +--------+ | 10 | +--------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)As we can see that the substring ‘good’ is in the string for two times. The first occurrence is at position 10 and another occurrence is at position 29. MySQL returns the position of the first occurrence.

For example, suppose in the ‘employee’ table we want to change the ‘name’ and ‘doj’ of the employee whose id is 1 then it can be done with the following query −mysql> UPDATE employee SET name = 'Gaurav', doj = '2010-02-01' WHERE id = 1; Query OK, 1 row affected (0.06 sec) Rows matched: 1 Changed: 1 Warnings: 0 mysql> select * from employee ...
