My name is Femi from Nigeria. I love data analysis because it's enables organizations/businesses get better understanding of its data and make informed decisions with it.
An easier way to explain indexing is to compare it to a book. A book has an index page that shows where to find the topics in a book. So, instead of you going through the entire book to find the topic you're looking for; the index page helps you know where exactly that topic is. Saving you time. Therefore, same thing with SQL queries.
I have to disagree with you, your example is intuitive, but it doesn't explain how and why index is fast. Although index has fewer pages than actual table, but what if your table is huge, and index from this table has a lot of pages? it is still slow (of course faster than scan the whole table) to scan all the pages in the index. And in SQL Server, there is a type of index called clustered index, which stores the whole table data in it instead of a seoarate structure beside table data, so it is basically your book with all the pages and no index section. Other point is indexes are stored on disk just like table data, so no hardware advantage. What make index fast is how the data is stored, data is stored in B+ tree structure, which make seek operators fast.
Dude, you’re here to save the day, you don’t even need someone to ask for something you upload the most awesome content, was in the bank the other day and the banker asked me about DataAnalysis content i was just about to recommend your channel but the guy already knew your channel had the best content, Greeting from Egypt 🇪🇬, God bless you and your family Alex ♥️✨
My name is Angela from Nigeria. watching your video has really helped me a lot in my career as a data analyst. Though am taking courses on coursera yet i come to watch your video for more clarity. Thanks Alex.
This is, by far, the greatest Content Creator I've ever found. I'm not exactly a techie, but to avoid ending up on a soup line, I've been learning marketable skills. It's not so common for an individual to be both well-versed in dense techie topics & able to explain it in a brief, understandable, and practical way, but damn, Alex the Analyst... *Thank you*. (No, I wasn't given anything to write this, but am compelled to do so after viewing ATA's content versus those of others, which can be laughably unclear).
Even if i have any difficulty understanding what our tutor says, I'm always running to Alex videos, funny enough, he recommended his video for us some days ago😊
I wish I could spend some time with this guy. I would put myself at probably an intermediate skill level with SQL which is one of my main functions in my job... but I have a lot to learn.
21:55 was such a helpful explanation to better understand what a join does when connecting IDs! love the video! and 53:30 is also super important and good to know for understanding employer expectations!
Hi! So happy to be joining. Yemi from Nigeria. I decided to make a 360 degree shift from a completely different field to tech so I get to know more and grow in the data analytics. Hoping to have a substantial amount of knowledge of SQL as a beginner.
Hi Femi, i just came across this video today and going through the comments i saw yours and chibuike’s. I wouldnt mind going the team as i making shift too from a totally different career. Hope you dont mind?
Hello Alex, I just found out about your channel, and I am impressed with what I have seen thus far. I’m currently studying: CompTia A+, Network +, and Security +, in hopes of changing careers from elementary education to the IT industry. Thanks for all the great information! Jalapeños!😊
Easy as you like it..sleek yet most effective...even slides are designed and curated in a way that explain almost everything related to the topic at first glance...you are the champ bro...
I honestly don't why the sudden fascination with data analytics. All I know is, it's getting crazier by the day. But with Alex I'm getting better and better!
I am in the middle of the Data Analysis course with Coursera. This video has been a great way for me to further review the SQL portion of the course. Thanks for uploading.
13:23 What was the purpose of the 'AS salary' statement here? I don't quite understand the meaning of 'naming' an output as it is being used here, since 'AVG(salary)' could do the job, maybe? Awesome work you're doing here, Alex! Thanks!
You don’t have to include the “AS salary”, but it’s good practice to explicitly define the column name when you use a function with “group by”. If you remove “AS salary” from the query it will still give you the same output, BUT the second column wouldn’t have a name (in SQL Server it would display “No Column Name” for the second column). Just a side note: In his example, it would’ve improved readability if he used “AS avg_salary” instead.
my name is jaiyeola aminat i love data analysis because anaything can happeng will be abale to solve problem easily eg problem like customer behavior analysis, product performance, financial analyst. etc
I started programming around 12 years old. I've been a software engineer for 20 years (C# and SQL mainly). In college I had to take Calculus and Statistics to get my CS degree. Waste of time! I've worked and major Banks and Insurance companies. I don't think I've did much above basic algebra. As long as you know the logic the computer will do it for you.
Hello Alex, the content is amazing. Congratulations! 31:13 Could you please recommend some tools to help me to identify the bottlenecks to optimize my queries? Thank you so much
I really appreciate this video but it has a title that’s not quite right. The only thing that is advanced is window function and there is a very short mention about it.
I really wanted to complete the course. But I use Mac M2. I think I am not having proper guideline about how to setup. I tried through docker and terminal command. It was going okay until my azure studio is not able to find my localhost and could not get connected. I wish I could get a solution of the pretty unknown problem.. :(

Hi Yemi can we connect I'm also starting a data analysis career....so we could learn together...
@@MinChibuikeOkoli Sure, it would be a pleasure.

How do we go about connecting? Awaiting Chibuike's reply also.

from Myanmar, Thank you very much for the channel!!!
Thank yu so much for having this up. I love data and facts, it makes the world go round.
Man this is amazing and compared to some of the things i did in c++ i can confidently do this! thank you for the reassurance!!!
HOLY SHIET! This is PHENOMENAAL

This was so informative, thank you CarreerFoundry and Alex!
thank you for the video
good work alex work on SQL
Thank you Alex!
Didnt know Frodo Baggins was born in 2001.

Super awesome. Thank you.
Thanks for the video Alex! Where can I download the dataset to follow the steps? Did I miss this part?
thank you, Alex , for clearing most of my questions before jumping into the job market. Really enjoyed the whole video.
Keep it Up.
Amazing. Thank you
Looking forward to learn SQL
Learning in South Sudan 🇸🇸
Why no time stamps ?
Please update if possible
Thanks for this wonderful tutorial ❤
Great job ❤❤❤ thank you

Nothing can compete Microsoft Excel. It may look not fancy, but superb functionality
Thanks Alex.
I really appreciate this video but it has a title that’s not quite right. The only thing that is advanced is window function and there is a very short mention about it.
thanks
Please can I run all these code on PopSQL
Is this video enough for data analyst ???!
Is this enough for a fresher to enter data analyst field
That's all. I think its more than that.
good.from africa
from where can i get this data set
Interesting
Once we got to join and sbqueries I was sweating. When we got to window functions, I started crying T-T
Love from Pakistan 🙂🙂

what of statistics?
I really I am Alex videos fun.
I am Azeez Wahab Oloyede from Nigeria. Want to be a data analyst.
is he using SQL Server Managment Studio?
Please can I get the sheet to practice as I watch the video
❤
part about windows functions is just bad. better skip it
🇳🇬
This SQL video is a waste of time. If any beginner like me in sql has came here to learn sql then please find something else.
Terrible examples, never ever ever ever use subqueries in WHERE clause
Why are there no fucking captions!!!! 😭
Now, there are closed captions and a transcript. Maybe they just hadn't had time to generate at the time you watched?
could you do something like this for python too? I'm struggling so much with python...
