- [Bill] Hi, I am Bill Weinman.
In this course, my goal was to provide you
with the basic knowledge that you'll need
to use MySQL effectively for your database applications.
I've covered the basic syntax of SQL as implemented
by MySQL, so you may be well prepared to construct
your own database queries.
The specific data types used by MySQL
and how those data types work, so you may create
effective database schemas for your applications.
The operators and functions specific to MySQL,
including string and math functions.
And I've covered the major differences between MySQL
and standard SQL, so you can more readily convert SQL
from other environments.
MySQL is one of the most widely deployed database systems
in the world, and knowing how it works will serve you well
for creating your own database applications.
I hope you've enjoyed this course as much as I've enjoyed
creating it for you.
So have fun and create something wonderful
with your new MySQL skills.
