SQL Homework
The DataCamp course Introduction to SQL provides a baseline knowledge of the structured query language. Complete the DataCamp course. Follow the directions posted to Week 6 to install MySQL Workbench and to import the stda database.
Complete the following prompts and submit a PDF or word document with your responses. Some of the prompts require commands not covered in the DataCamp course, but are readily found online. I will be testing your ability to self teach several commands. I recommend using www.w3schools.com as your primary resource, although you may prefer others.
