[Blindmath] SQL

[Trevor Attenberg]

Hi there.
Thanks again for this old message. I just got back into the business of trying to learn SQL. I wanted to mention that I had a very difficult time trying to download postgres. It seems it does not let you select the Windows option or any operating system option in the pull down menu on the website I used. I downloaded psql separately however. Do I need some entire installer package and such, or is this good enough for a data server--note I have practically no experience with this jazz what so ever. I've had separate difficulties though. It seems when I click on this psql, as well as my sql, which I think I successfully downloaded, what appears to my eyes to be a DOS window briefly opens, then closes after a second or two. Does this issue sound familiar? That's all that happens. 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated of course!
Best,
Trevor

Hello,
Postgres is the easiest to use and is a full DB system. If you don't want to download anything, Google sheets has the query command that is a subset of sql. It sorts quite well.
You download PSQL which is a part of the windows installation package for postgres and you can use it on the command line.
Otherwise I would just use the Google sheets query language.

Note that in Google Sheets query function, the column names need to be capital letter like:
SELECT A, B, F WHERE ...
Thanks,
