I kept the minimal price so that everyone can afford but many people are misusing it by selling the same resources at higher cost.
Please stop doing that guys. It's for everyone's benefit 👍❤️

CRUD operations in SQL

1.Create (INSERT): Adds new records to a table
2.Read (SELECT): Retrieves data from a table.
3.Update (UPDATE): Modifies existing records in a table.
4. Delete (DELETE): Removes records from a table.

Quick Recap of SQL Concepts

1️⃣ FROM clause: Specifies the tables from which data will be retrieved.
2️⃣ WHERE clause: Filters rows based on specified conditions.
3️⃣ GROUP BY clause: Groups rows that have the same values into summary rows.
4️⃣ HAVING clause: Filters groups based on specified conditions.
5️⃣ SELECT clause: Specifies the columns to be retrieved.
6️⃣ WINDOW functions: Functions that perform calculations across a set of table rows.
7️⃣ AGGREGATE functions: Functions like COUNT, SUM, AVG that perform calculations on a set of values.
8️⃣ UNION / UNION ALL: Combines the result sets of multiple SELECT statements.
9️⃣ ORDER BY clause: Sorts the result set based on specified columns.
🔟 LIMIT / OFFSET (or FETCH / OFFSET in some databases): Controls the number of rows returned and starting point for retrieval.
