SQL LCASE Function
The LCASE function converts the fields value into the lowercase.
Understand with Example
The Tutorial illustrate an example from SQL L CASE Function. In order to understand the concept of SQL L CASE Function, we create a table name Stu_Table. The create statement helps you to create a table Stu_Table.
Create Table Stu_Table
SQL statement to create table:
create table Stu_Table(Stu_Id varchar(2), Stu_Name varchar(15), Stu_Class varchar(10),sub_id varchar(2),marks varchar(3)); |
Insert Data into Stu_Table
The insert into insert records, rows to the Table' Stu_Table'.
SQL statement to insert data into table:
insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,1,45); insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,1,56); insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,1,67); insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,2,47); insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,2,53); insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,2,57); insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,3,45); insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,3,56); insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,3,67); insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,4,65); insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,4,56); insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,4,37); insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,5,65); insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,5,46); insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,5,63); |
Stu_Table
Records in the table:
+--------+----------+-----------+--------+-------+ | Stu_Id | Stu_Name | Stu_Class | sub_id | marks | +--------+----------+-----------+--------+-------+ | 1 | Komal | 10 | 1 | 45 | | 2 | Ajay | 10 | 1 | 56 | | 3 | Rakesh | 10 | 1 | 67 | | 1 | Komal | 10 | 2 | 47 | | 2 | Ajay | 10 | 2 | 53 | | 3 | Rakesh | 10 | 2 | 57 | | 1 | Komal | 10 | 3 | 45 | | 2 | Ajay | 10 | 3 | 56 | | 3 | Rakesh | 10 | 3 | 67 | | 1 | Komal | 10 | 4 | 65 | | 2 | Ajay | 10 | 4 | 56 | | 3 | Rakesh | 10 | 4 | 37 | | 1 | Komal | 10 | 5 | 65 | | 2 | Ajay | 10 | 5 | 46 | | 3 | Rakesh | 10 | 5 | 63 | +--------+----------+-----------+--------+-------+ |
Query
The SQL Query want to select the content of the "stu_id" and "stu_name", column above ,and convert the "stu_name" column to lowercase.
select stu_id, lcase(stu_name) from stu_table group by stu_id; |
Result
+--------+----------+ | stu_id | stu_name | +--------+----------+ | 1 | komal | | 2 | ajay | | 3 | rakesh | +--------+----------+ |
