Absolute SQL/DB basics you need to know before asking AI to do it

When you ask AI, “Give me the top 10 by sales,” it can instantly whip up a plausible-looking query. But to judge whether that query is correct, whether the result of joining three tables is accurate, or whether it’s doing a full scan of 500,000 rows without an index —you ultimately need a solid grasp of database fundamentals. This course doesn’t cover anything difficult. In just two hours, you’ll type along and learn the full flow of SQL, covering only what you need to know before asking AI to do it for you. By the end of the course, you won’t feel uneasy anymore when faced with a query written by AI.

This is a great course if you just want to quickly grasp the basics of databases and SQL statements to the point of saying, "Ah, so that's what this is." While you'll need to study the fine details on your own, this course shows you exactly what and how to study. (For example, it helps beginners identify things they don't understand even after using various commands, or figure out what a "procedure" is... it helps you find your own path for further study.) It packs more information than expected into a short, intensive format. Considering the Notion summary materials and the fact that it's free, I think it's a truly excellent course!

Just nine months after starting to create courses, I was featured as one of Inflearn’s top-earning instructors. An Inflearn interview also features the story of a 60-year-old non-developer who completed a website.

We explain everything clearly, from why it is needed to how it is used on actual screens. Starting where beginners typically get stuck, we show you the process of building, clicking through, and fixing things yourself. In this challenge as well, leave the code and illustrations to Codex, and focus on judging the game's rules and results.

      I'm so glad you've built a solid foundation in databases. I hope the groundwork you laid today serves as a strong support whenever you use SQL in the future.

      You hit the nail on the head regarding the purpose of this lecture with the expression 'setting a direction for what to study,' thank you. I will be rooting for your continued growth as you keep finding topics to dive into on your own, just like you did with procedures!
