4,471 PointsHow should i count it then?
Hello, i'm bit annoyed and confused for the first time on TTH.
It want's me to count the amount of books that are in the SciFi genre.
SELECT COUNT(title) FROM books AS "scifi_book_count" WHERE genre="Science Fiction";
I also look back on the video few times and i don't understand this! What am i doing wrong?
??? I checked "Attach my code" and it didn't? Okayyy...

SELECT COUNT(*) as scifi_book_count FROM books WHERE genre = "Science Fiction"
