SQL with Oracle 10g XE - Using the COUNT and SUM Functions
In this video I use the COUNT and SUM functions available to the SQL language. I used the COUNT function to add up the number of records in my query. This function works well with all data types and will just count the number or records that result from the conditions of your query. The SUM function will add up the numeric values and produce a total amount of a column. When using a function be sure to use parenthesis around the column you are performing the function on. This video is part of a series of videos with the purpose of learning the SQL language. For more information visit Lecture Snippets at http://lecturesnippets.com.
