query language
Last modified: Monday, December 10, 2001
A specialized language for requesting information from a database. For example, the query
SELECT ALL WHERE age > 30 AND name = "Smith"
requests all records in which the name-field is "Smith" and the Age field has a value greater than 30. The de facto standard for query languages is SQL.
