Summary

In this chapter, we had a look at the different types of data and how data is stored in relational databases. We also had a brief look at the different commands available in SQL. We specifically focused on creating databases and tables within the databases, as well as how we can easily insert values into tables.

In the next chapter, we will look at how we can modify the data, the properties of tables, and databases, and build complex tables.
