Program Plan Intro

WHERE Statement:

“WHERE” statement is used limit the number of rows. For example:Consider a table “FTable” that has two columns named “FruitName” and “Color”. “WHERE” clause is used when there is a need to display the entire FruitName whose color is Red.

SELECT * FROM FTable WHERE color = 'red';

When the above statement is executed, red colored fruits get displayed.

ORDER BY Clause:

SQL contains “ORDER BY” clause in order to sort rows. The values get sorted in ascending as well as descending order. The keyword used to sort values in ascending order is “ASC” and for descending order is “DESC”. By default, it sorts values by ascending order.

Syntax:

SELECT column_Name1, column_Name2 FROM table_Name ORDER BY column_Name2;

Display a list of all book titles and the percentage of markup for each book. The percentage of markup should be displayed as a whole number (that is, multiplied by 100) with no decimal position, followed by a percent sign (for example, .2793 = 28%). (The percentage of markup should reflect the difference between the retail and cost amounts as a percent of the cost. (refer to the tables in the JustLee Books database.)
You will be using the Colonial Adventure Tours database. List the trip IDs and trip names for each pair of trips that have the same start location.(You will need to assign an alias). The first trip id should be the major sort key, and the second trip id  should be the minor sort key.
calculate_new_balance Given a starting balance (a number), and a list of transaction tuples, calculate the final balance for an account. Transaction tuples are of the shape ("description", amount, "withdrawal")  , or ("description", amount, "deposit").  The last entry in the tuple will be either "withdrawal" or "deposit". Every withdrawal decreases the balance of the account by the specified amount, and every deposit increases the balance. The return value is the new account balance, as a number. (which could be negative) Sample calls should look like: >>> calculate_new_balance(100, [("payday", 20, "deposit"), ("new shoes", 50, "withdrawal"), ("illicit winnings", 200, "deposit")])270>>> calculate_new_balance(100, [])100
