SQL BETWEEN and NOT BETWEEN Operators
The SQL BETWEEN operator retrieves values within a specified range of SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE or INSERT commands and can be numbers, dates or text values. Here we will see examples for BETWEEN and NOT BETWEEN operators.
Syntax
SELECT column1, column2…, columnN
FROM TableName
WHERE column BETWEEN value1 AND value2
Here we will see how we can use BETWEEN operator from Student table.
Examples
Let’s find RollNumber between 1002 and 1006 from Student table.
SELECT *FROM Student WHERE RollNumber BETWEEN 1002 AND 1006
As you can observe, both lower and upper values are inclusive and returns the specified range.
We will see one more example where we will consider values between two characters. Here we will take character ‘A’ and ‘L’ for student middle name.
SELECT *FROM Student WHERE MiddleName BETWEEN 'A' AND 'L'
There are seven records for middle name between characters ‘A’ and ‘L’. In the same manner you can also find records between two date range.
If you don’t want records between two specific values then you can use NOT BETWEEN operator. Here we will see one example.
SELECT *FROM Student WHERE RollNumber NOT BETWEEN 1003 AND 1011
