SQLBolt<\/a> is by far the best SQL tutorial that I’ve ever seen!\u00a0 Yes, I know, it’s a very bold statement.\u00a0 But I promise that it’s true.<\/p>\n

With hundreds of books, videos, and other tutorials around, the problem of delivering the understanding of data management, databases, and SQL to regular people still hasn’t been sold.\u00a0 But SQLBolt provides a giant leap forward in this area.<\/p>\n

The tutorial starts from the very basics and gets progressively more and more advanced.\u00a0 But this progression is divided into small, very focused chapters.\u00a0 Each chapter provides a brief description of the concept, an example query for the concept, and a set of exercises.\u00a0 The exercises are all interactive, so that you don’t have to install a database or get access to a real one, and you don’t have to trust yourself on correctly solving the tasks.\u00a0 The interactive exercises system marks the problem as solved the moment you type in the correct query.<\/p>\n

If you get stuck at any point with any particular exercises, just click on the Solution link nearby, and the tutorial will show you the correct answer.\u00a0 I found this to be a perfect balance between forcing the reader to try things out, but without the annoying delays for those of us who like to skip ahead.<\/p>\n

There is really no reason now for anybody at all to learn SQL.\u00a0 SQLBolt is brilliant!<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
