How to select records beginning with certain numbers in MySQL?
The optimal solution to select records beginning with certain numbers, use MySQL LIKE operator. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable ( ClientId bigint, ClientName varchar(40) ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.82 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values(23568777,'Chris Brown'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(9085544,'John Doe'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(9178432,'John Doe'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(9078482,'David Miller'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.17 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+----------+--------------+ | ClientId | ClientName | +----------+--------------+ | 23568777 | Chris Brown | | 9085544 | John Doe | | 9178432 | John Doe | | 9078482 | David Miller | +----------+--------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to select records beginning with certain numbers in MySQL −
mysql> select *from DemoTable where ClientId LIKE '90%';
This will produce the following output −
+----------+--------------+ | ClientId | ClientName | +----------+--------------+ | 9085544 | John Doe | | 9078482 | David Miller | +----------+--------------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
