SQL LCASE Function

     

The LCASE function converts the fields value into the lowercase.

Understand with Example

The Tutorial illustrate an example from SQL L CASE Function. In order to understand the concept of SQL L CASE Function, we create a table name Stu_Table. The create statement helps you to create a table Stu_Table.

Create Table Stu_Table

SQL statement to create table:

 

 

create table Stu_Table(Stu_Id varchar(2), Stu_Name varchar(15), 
Stu_Class  varchar(10),sub_id varchar(2),marks varchar(3));

Insert Data into Stu_Table

The insert into insert records, rows to the Table' Stu_Table'.

SQL statement to insert data into table:

insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,1,45);
insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,1,56);
insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,1,67);

insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,2,47);
insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,2,53);
insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,2,57);

insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,3,45);
insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,3,56);
insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,3,67);

insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,4,65);
insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,4,56);
insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,4,37);

insert into Stu_Table values(1,'Komal',10,5,65);
insert into Stu_Table values(2,'Ajay',10,5,46);
insert into Stu_Table values(3,'Rakesh',10,5,63);

Stu_Table

Records in the table:

+--------+----------+-----------+--------+-------+
| Stu_Id | Stu_Name | Stu_Class | sub_id | marks |
+--------+----------+-----------+--------+-------+
| 1      | Komal    | 10        | 1      | 45    |
