Syntax error Display records with conditions set using if statement in UPDATE statement with MySQL

Display records with conditions set using if statement in UPDATE statement with MySQL



Let us first create a table −

mysql> create table DemoTable
   -> (
   -> StudentId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
   -> StudentName varchar(20),
   -> StudentMarks int,
   -> Status varchar(20)
   -> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.97 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert command −

mysql> insert into DemoTable(StudentName,StudentMarks) values('Chris',79);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.17 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable(StudentName,StudentMarks) values('David',59);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable(StudentName,StudentMarks) values('Bob',60);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.23 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable(StudentName,StudentMarks) values('Mike',45);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec)

Display all records from the table using select statement −

mysql> select *from DemoTable;

This will produce the following output −

+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+
| StudentId | StudentName | StudentMarks | Status |
+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+
|        1 | Chris        |           79 | NULL   |
|        2 | David        |           59 | NULL   |
|        3 | Bob          |           60 | NULL   |
|        4 | Mike         |           45 | NULL   |
+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Following is the query to set conditions while updating −

mysql> update DemoTable
   -> set Status=if(StudentMarks > 60 ,'PASS','FAIL');
Query OK, 4 rows affected (0.40 sec)
Rows matched: 4 Changed: 4 Warnings: 0

Let us check the table records once again −

mysql> select *from DemoTable;

This will produce the following output −

+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+
| StudentId | StudentName | StudentMarks | Status |
+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+
|         1 | Chris       |           79 | PASS   |
|         2 | David       |           59 | FAIL   |
|         3 | Bob         |           60 | FAIL   |
|          4 | Mike       |           45 | FAIL   |
+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
