Open the case file. The evidence is in the database. Learn SQL for free through 100 authored leads and 10 complete investigations. Read the brief, inspect the schema, write a real query, and use the returned rows to prove what happened. Each lead gives you a question and a working dataset. Run your SQL, study the result, revise your approach, then verify the finding when the evidence fits. Every investigation is authored, so the clues, datasets, and conclusions belong to a complete case. WORK 100 AUTHORED LEADS Ten investigations take you from the foundations to advanced analysis: • SELECT, WHERE, ORDER BY, and LIMIT • COUNT, SUM, AVG, GROUP BY, and HAVING • INNER JOIN and LEFT JOIN • Subqueries and CASE expressions • Window functions and common table expressions BUILD PRACTICAL SQL JUDGEMENT • Turn a case objective into a query • Explore tables and relationships through the schema • Read returned rows instead of guessing from syntax • Use clear feedback to correct a failed investigation • Reopen filed leads and improve your solution START WHERE YOUR SKILLS FIT New to SQL?
