Query Languages

Query languages are specialized tools used to communicate with databases, allowing users to retrieve, update, or manipulate data. They use a specific syntax to perform tasks, like asking questions about the information stored in a database. The most common query language is SQL (Structured Query Language), which lets users request specific data, such as finding all customers from a certain city or calculating totals. By using query languages, individuals can efficiently extract meaningful insights from large amounts of data, making it easier to manage and analyze information in various applications, including websites, apps, and business software.
