  2. MultiDimensional eXpressions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MultiDimensional_eXpressions

    The MultiDimensional eXpressions (MDX) language provides a specialized syntax for querying and manipulating the multidimensional data stored in OLAP cubes. [1] While it is possible to translate some of these into traditional SQL, it would frequently require the synthesis of clumsy SQL expressions even for very simple MDX expressions.

  3. Query by Example - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_by_Example

    Query by Example (QBE) is a database query language for relational databases. It was devised by Moshé M. Zloof at IBM Research during the mid-1970s, in parallel to the development of SQL . [ 1 ] It is the first graphical query language, using visual tables where the user would enter commands, example elements and conditions.

  4. Cypher (query language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cypher_(query_language)

    The Cypher's data type system includes many of the common data types used in other programming and query languages. Supported data types include scalar value types such as boolean, string, number, integer, and floating-point numbers. It also supports temporal types like datetime, localdatetime, date, time, localtime

  5. Tuple relational calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuple_relational_calculus

    To determine whether a query expression is safe we will derive two types of information from a query. The first is whether a variable-column pair t . a is bound to the column of a relation or a constant, and the second is whether two variable-column pairs are directly or indirectly equated (denoted t . v == s . w ).

  6. SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL

    SQL was initially developed at IBM by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce after learning about the relational model from Edgar F. Codd [12] in the early 1970s. [13] This version, initially called SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language), was designed to manipulate and retrieve data stored in IBM's original quasirelational database management system, System R, which a group at IBM San ...

  7. PL/SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PL/SQL

    The time may be left out, but there is no way to define a variable that only contains the time. There is no DATETIME type. And there is a TIME type. But there is no TIMESTAMP type that can contain fine-grained timestamp up to millisecond or nanosecond. The TO_DATE function can be used to convert strings to date values. The function converts the ...

  8. Prepared statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prepared_statement

    Major DBMSs, including SQLite, [5] MySQL, [6] Oracle, [7] IBM Db2, [8] Microsoft SQL Server [9] and PostgreSQL [10] support prepared statements. Prepared statements are normally executed through a non-SQL binary protocol for efficiency and protection from SQL injection, but with some DBMSs such as MySQL prepared statements are also available using a SQL syntax for debugging purposes.

  9. Unix time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time

    The Unix time_t data type that represents a point in time is, on many platforms, a signed integer, traditionally of 32 bits (but see below), directly encoding the Unix time number as described in the preceding section. A signed 32-bit value covers about 68 years before and after the 1970-01-01 epoch.
