Having trouble with new functions and then aliasing. Did I use the REPLACE function correctly? Thanks!

Here is what I have tried, wanting to pull all emails from a table and replace "@" with "<at>" and alias it. Thanks!

231,184 PointsYou're using the function correctly, but there are some query syntax issues. The item being selected comes first (in this case, only the modified email), then the alias, and the table after the "FROM" keyword:
SELECT REPLACE(email, "@", "<at>") AS obfuscated_email FROM customers;
You don't need WHERE since you are returning data from every row.
