Instruction

Good. Now, if you want to find users whose age is between 13 and 70, you can of course use the previous example:

SELECT id, name
FROM user
WHERE age <= 70
  AND age >= 13;

But there is also another way of writing the example above. Take a look:

SELECT
  id,
  name
FROM user
WHERE age BETWEEN 13 AND 70;

We introduced a new keyword BETWEEN which simply means that we look for rows with the age column set to be anything between 13 and 70, including these values.

Note, however, that some database systems can produce different results – in some of them, the values 13 and 70 are not included in the results. Always check how BETWEEN works in your database.

Exercise

Select vin, brand, and model of all cars which were produced between 1995 and 2005.

Stuck? Here's a hint!

Type:

SELECT
  vin,
  brand,
  model
FROM car
WHERE production_year BETWEEN 1995 AND 2005;
