What is the difference between NULL and an empty string in SQL?
In SQL, NULL represents a lack of value, while an empty string is a string with zero characters. They are not the same.
Can you give me an example of how they behave in a query?
Sure! If you query a column with NULL, it won't return that row unless you specifically check for NULL. An empty string will return the row.
How do I check for NULL values in SQL?
You can use the IS NULL condition in your SQL query. For example: SELECT * FROM table WHERE column IS NULL;
What about checking for empty strings?
To check for empty strings, you can use: SELECT * FROM table WHERE column = '';
This will return rows where the column is an empty string.
