Sample Solution:
-- Selecting the substring of product names up to 30 characters and the list price
SELECT SUBSTRING(Name, 1, 30) AS ProductName, ListPrice
-- From the Production schema's Product table
FROM Production.Product
-- Filtering the results to include only rows where the list price starts with '33'
WHERE CAST(ListPrice AS char(2)) LIKE '33%';
Explanation:
- The SQL query retrieves data from the Product table within the Production schema.
- It selects the substring of product names up to the first 30 characters and the list price.
- The SUBSTRING() function is used to extract the first 30 characters of the product name to ensure it doesn't exceed the specified length.
- The LIKE operator is used in combination with the CAST() function to filter the results based on the list price.
- The CAST() function converts the 'ListPrice' column to a character data type (specifically, to the first 2 characters) for pattern matching.
- The WHERE clause filters the rows to include only those where the list price starts with '33'.
