What is SQL?
SQL stands for Structured Query Language. It is a language used to work with databases. Instead of building websites or apps directly, SQL is used to store, organize, and retrieve data. For example, when information like usernames, passwords, or product details need to be saved somewhere, SQL helps manage that data inside a database.
How is SQL used in real life?
SQL is used anytime data needs to be stored and accessed in an organized way. Businesses use it to manage customer information, track sales, and store important records. When you log into a website and your information loads correctly, that data is usually being pulled from a database using SQL. It plays a big role behind the scenes in many websites and applications.
