NULL Keyword
The NULL
keyword represents a missing or undefined value in a database. It is not the same as zero or an empty string.
Example: Checking for NULL Values
SELECT Name
FROM FreedomFighters
WHERE Contribution IS NULL;
Output:
Returns the names of freedom fighters whose contributions are not specified.
Notes
- Use
IS NULL
orIS NOT NULL
to check for NULL values. - Remember that NULL represents the absence of a value, not an empty or zero value.
