Miscellaneous notes

Here's an alternative diagram to using venn diagrams to understand SQL joins: https://www.reddit.com/r/SQL/comments/1bv88ht/please_use_these_instead_of_those_abominable_venn/

UDF (user-defined function):

• https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/standard-sql/user-defined-functions:

temporary UDF:

CREATE TEMP FUNCTION AddFourAndDivideTemporary(x INT64, y INT64)
RETURNS FLOAT64
AS (
  (x + 4) / y
);

SELECT
  val, AddFourAndDivideTemporary(val, 2)
FROM
  UNNEST([2,3,5,8]) AS val;

persistent UDF: (requires a dataset like "mydataset." specified for the function)

CREATE FUNCTION mydataset.AddFourAndDividePersistent(x INT64, y INT64)
RETURNS FLOAT64
AS (
  (x + 4) / y
);

SELECT
  val, mydataset.AddFourAndDividePersistent(val, 2)
FROM
  UNNEST([2,3,5,8,12]) AS val;

• GO = end of scope = came from telling CLI that it can now send the server the batch of multiline SQL code
• ; separates lines in a batch and does not separate scope

• DELETE FROM table_name WHERE condition; --OK
  

• DELETE FROM table_name; --likely BAD: will delete entire table
