What is the WHERE clause?

Rating:

The WHERE clause is used to determine the values that will be returned in the resultset. It specifies a condition, and the records that satisfy the given condition are returned in the resultset. In other words, the WHERE clause restricts the number of rows retrieved from the table. For example:

SELECT *
FROM Table
WHERE Empage>50


Here, all the records where Empage is greater than 50 will be extracted from the table named Table.
