Select statement in MySQL 8

The Select statement is used to retrieve data from single or multiple tables:

SELECT field 1, field 2, field 3 from table_name [WHERE Clause] [GROUPBY {col_name }] [HAVINGwhere_condition] [ORDERBY {col_name}  {ASC|DESC}, ...] [LIMIT{OFFSET M}{LIMIT N}]

This is the common syntax used to retrieve data from a single table:

• Fields one and two are the column names of the table. To fetch all columns from the table, the * expression can be used.
• table_name indicates the table name from where data needs to be retrieved.
• The WHERE clause can be used to specify any condition in a single and multiple column.
• The Group BY function is used with aggregate functions to group the result sets.
• The HAVING clause is needed after GROUP BY to filter based on conditions for a group of rows or aggregates. If we use the HAVING clause without GROUP BY, it would act similarly to the WHERE clause.
• The ORDER BY clause is used to sort the table result sets in ascending or descending order.
• LIMIT...
