SQL Wildcard
A wildcard character is used to substitute one or more characters in a string. Wildcard characters are used with the LIKE operator. The LIKE operator is used in a WHERE clause to search for a specified pattern in a column.
Example:
SELECT column_Name1, column_Name2 …., column_NameN FROM table_Name WHERE column_name LIKE pattern:
Let’s take the following Employee table:
Return all customers starting with either “b”, “s”, or “p”:
SELECT * FROM Employee WHERE Name LIKE ‘[rsv]%’;
The [] wildcard returns a result if any of the characters inside gets a match.
Output:
Let’s take the following Student table:
Return all customers starting with “a”, “b”, “c”, “d”, “e”, “f”, “g”, “h”, “i”, “j” or “k”:
SELECT * FROM Name WHERE Name LIKE ‘[a-k]%’;
Output:
The – wildcard allows you to specify a range of characters inside the [] wildcard.
