Chapter 6. Data Manipulation Statements and Functions
This chapter explains SQL statements in MySQL related to data manipulation: adding, changing, and deleting data, as well as retrieving selected data. Statements that create and alter databases and tables are covered in the previous chapter. In essence, this chapter covers SQL statements used when manipulating the data itself, not when developing a database. The two modes involve fairly distinct mindsets and are sometimes conducted by different people.
