SELECT STATEMENT

SELECT "column_name" FROM "table_name"
To illustrate the above example, assume that we have the following table:
Table Store_Information

store_name Sales Date
Los Angeles $1500 Jan-05-1999
San Diego $250 Jan-07-1999
Los Angeles $300 Jan-08-1999
Boston $700 Jan-08-1999

We shall use this table as an example throughout the tutorial (this table will appear in all sections). To select all the stores in this table, we key in,
SELECT store_name FROM Store_Information

Result:

store_name
Los Angeles
San Diego
Los Angeles
Boston
Multiple column names can be selected, as well as multiple table names.
