Day 5 of our PostgreSQL Complete Course is here 🚀

In this video, we dive deep into the most important SQL command — SELECT, the Read (R) operation from CRUD. You'll learn how to fetch data from tables, select specific columns, rename output using aliases, remove duplicate values with DISTINCT, apply filtering using WHERE, and even perform mathematical operations directly inside SELECT statements.

If you want to become a strong SQL and PostgreSQL developer, mastering SELECT is mandatory because almost every database application depends on it.

🔥 What you'll learn:
✔ SELECT basics
✔ Fetch all records using *
✔ Select specific columns
✔ Format output with AS Alias
✔ Find unique values with DISTINCT
✔ Filter records using WHERE
✔ Mathematical operations in SELECT
✔ Real practical examples in pgAdmin 4

Perfect for beginners starting PostgreSQL from scratch.
