This module will cover some of the fundamental aspects of SQL.
This includes what SQL is, why we use it, and how it is different from programming. You will also set up your database and propagate it with the PUBS data so that you can use it for the rest of this course.

SQL commonly expanded as Structured Query Language, is a computer language designed for the retrieval and management of data in relational database management systems, database schema creation and modification, and database object access control management.
SQL has been standardized by both ANSI and ISO.
