The SQL WHERE clause is used to specify a condition while fetching the data
from single table or joining with multiple tables.
If the given condition is satisfied, then only it returns specific value from the table. You would use WHERE clause to filter the records and fetching only necessary records.
The WHERE clause is not only used in SELECT statement, but it is also used in UPDATE, DELETE statement, etc., which we would examine in subsequent chapters.

Syntax:
The basic syntax of SELECT statement with WHERE clause is as
follows:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME1, COLUMN_NAME2, .., Column_NameN
FROM TABLE_NAME Where [Condition]
You can specify a condition using comparison or
logical operators like >, <, =, LIKE, NOT, etc. Below examples
would make this concept clear.
Example:
Consider the TechnoCratEmployee table having the following
records:
SELECT * From TechnoCratEmployee
Following is an example which would fetch ID,
Name and Salary fields from the CUSTOMERS table where salary is greater than or
Equal to 5000:
SELECT Id, Name, salary, Email from TechnoCratEmployee
Where Salary >=5000
Here we got the result whose salary is
greater than or equal to 5000.
