What this example teaches

WHERE

Output

The query returns only the rows needed for a reporting query.

Line-by-line explanation

  • Line 1 sets up the WHERE example: SELECT customer, total, status.
  • Line 2 adds one required part of the working pattern: FROM orders.
  • Line 3 adds the decision or filter that controls the result: WHERE total >= 112.
  • Line 4 adds one required part of the working pattern: ORDER BY total DESC;.

Why this example is useful

This example is useful because it isolates where without surrounding noise, so you can see the idea clearly.

Where it is used in real projects

WHERE appears in real SQL work when a feature needs a clear pattern that can be reviewed and changed safely.
