Inserting data into an SQL table
Now that we have a table structure, we need to insert some data.
The syntax for inserting multiple records is:
INSERT INTO table_name (field_name) VALUES (record1), (record2), (record3)
Insert "Anthropology", "Biology", and "Linguistics" into the table we just created.
Remember:
- Highlight this code before clicking the triangle to execute!
- Comment your code with
--
INSERT INTO programs (program_name) VALUES
("Anthropology"),
("Biology"),
("Linguistics");
Click on "Data" to view the data that you just inserted into the "programs" table.
