In this article, we would like to show you how to use AND
, OR

operators in MySQL.
To show how the mentioned operators work, we will use the following table:

Note:
At the end of this article you can find database preparation SQL queries.
Syntax:
xxxxxxxxxx
1
SELECT `column1`, `column2`, ...
2
FROM `table_name`
3
WHERE condition1 AND condition2 AND condition3 ...;
In this example, we will display information about users with specified department_id
AND
salary
greater than 1400$.
Query:
xxxxxxxxxx
1
SELECT * FROM `users`
2
WHERE `department_id` = 2 AND `salary` > 1400;
Output:

Syntax:
xxxxxxxxxx
1
SELECT `column1`, `column2`, ...
2
FROM `table_name`
3
WHERE condition1 OR condition2 OR condition3 ...;
In this example, we will display information about users whose name
is Kate OR
Simon.
Query:
xxxxxxxxxx
1
SELECT * FROM `users`
2
WHERE `name` = 'Kate' OR `name` = 'Simon';
Output:

Syntax:
xxxxxxxxxx
1
SELECT `column1`, `column2`, ...
2
FROM `table_name`
3
WHERE NOT condition;
In this example, we will display information about users whose department_id
is NOT
2.
Query:
xxxxxxxxxx
1
SELECT * FROM `users`
2
WHERE NOT `department_id` = 2;
Output:
