Create table in PostgreSQL.

In this Section we are going to learn that how are tables created in PostgreSQL.

First of all you need the PostgreSQL software installed on your computer. If you don't have no problem you can download from the following link. Choose your platform and you are ready to download.

Download :  PostgreSQL

OK after you download and install the software then run it from the command prompt as mentioned in the read me manual.

A screen will appear in front of you when you run the program by filling in the appropriate login or authentication information.

Then simple write the following lines on the screen and run it.

Type the two paragraphs A) and B) on your screen and run it.

A) Item Table

     create table item
      (item_no integer primary key,
      item_name text,
      qty float);

B) Supplier table.

     create table supplier
     (supp_no integer primary key,
     supp_name text,
     address text,
     city text,
     phoneno integer);

When you run these two codes in your command prompt two tables named Item  and Supplier will be created in your database.

Now we will insert data in these two tables. now Run the Following statements on your command prompt and data will be inserted in both tables.

C) Inserting Data in Item Table.

     insert into item values(1,'cdrom',1200);
     insert into item values(2,'cd writer',1500);
     insert into item values(3,'fdd',800);
     insert into item values(4,'hdd',3200);
     insert into item values(5,'speaker',1200);
     insert into item values(6,'usb',500);
     insert into item values(7,'mouse',500);
     insert into item values(8,'monitor',1200);





D) Inserting Data in Supplier table.


     insert into supplier values(1,'singh0','ozar0','nasik0',5602077);
     insert into supplier values(2,'singh1','ozar1','nasik1',5602076);
     insert into supplier values(3,'singh2','ozar2','nasik2',5602075);
     insert into supplier values(4,'singh3','ozar3','nasik3',5602074);
     insert into supplier values(5,'singh4','ozar4','nasik4',5602073);
     insert into supplier values(6,'singh5','ozar5','nasik5',5602072);
     insert into supplier values(7,'singh6','ozar6','nasik6',5602071);
     insert into supplier values(8,'singh7','ozar7','nasik7',5602070);*/
     insert into supplier values(9,'singh8','ozar8','nasik0',2775411);

PL/pgSql

The Full Form of PL/pg Sql is  Procedural language/Postgre Sql.
It is a Structured Query language. It is Almost Similar to Sql Queries but it is more structured and more easy than the Sql Commands and functions.

Specifications of the Pl/pg Sql is as Follows:

1) Database created has no Size Limit ie it can be unlimited.
2) The table created in it can have a maximum size of  32 TB and not more than that.
3) The maximum Row Size can be maximum  upto 1.6 TB and not more than that.
4) There can be any number of rows per tables .
5) It is Highly Customizable.

Postgres Sql is available under the liberal open source license(LOSL) to download and modify,distribute and use for development. It is a powerful tool that can be used for home applications, web development, ecommerce and at places where softwares or products of high RDBMS is required.

Below is a Simple example of Postgres sql function.



 
create table Doctor
    (
        doc_no        integer        primary key    ,
        doc_name     text        not null    ,
        address        text        not null    ,
        city        text        not null   
    );

create table Hospital
    (
        hosp_no        integer        primary key    ,
        hosp_name    text        not null    ,
        hosp_city    text        not null   
    );   

create table Doc_Hosp
    (
        doc_no        integer        references Doctor    ,
        hosp_no        integer        references Hospital   
    );

insert into Doctor values(1,'Mr. Chandan','Ram krishna Nagar','Nasik');
insert into Doctor values(2,'Mr. Rahul','Gagapur road','Pune');
insert into Doctor values(3,'Mr. Amit','Ojhar','Mumbai');
insert into Doctor values(4,'Mr. Prasanna','Trimurti','Nagpur');
insert into Doctor values(5,'Mr. Atul','Colony','Kanpur');

insert into Hospital values(1,'Grand Hospital','Nasik');
insert into Hospital values(2,'Charity Hospital','Pune');
insert into Hospital values(3,'Perfect Hospital','Nagpur');
insert into Hospital values(4,'Maya Hospital','Kanpur');
insert into Hospital values(5,'Hayat Hospital','Mumbai');

insert into Doc_Hosp values(1,2);
insert into Doc_Hosp values(1,3);
insert into Doc_Hosp values(1,4);
insert into Doc_Hosp values(1,5);
insert into Doc_Hosp values(2,3);
insert into Doc_Hosp values(2,4);

insert into Doc_Hosp values(5,3);
insert into Doc_Hosp values(5,1);
