SQL, how to update data
How to update data stored in a SQL database table
The data stored in a table can be updated using the UPDATE
command:
UPDATE people SET age=2 WHERE name='Roger'
It’s important to add the WHERE
clause, otherwise this instruction:
UPDATE people SET age=2
would update all rows in the table.
