01:30 Summary and Key Points
Today, we'll discuss the CONCAT function, which combines two or more strings into a single string. For example, if we have columns for the first name and last name, we can use the CONCAT function to create a single column for the full name.
To demonstrate, let's take a table with columns for Sales Name, Region, and State. We want an output where the Region name is followed by a space and then the State name. Using the CONCAT function, we can achieve this by specifying the Region, adding a space, and then the State.
This method is useful for data cleaning, such as combining first and last names into a full name. Thank you for watching Educate Cube. Please like, share, and subscribe. See you in the next video!
