For your penultimate practice problem,
we'd like you to generate a list of
0:00
all of the teachers sorted
alphabetically by last name.
0:04
Also, we'd like to only see the first and
last names of each teacher.
0:07
For this question,
0:13
we wanna get a list of all the teachers
sorted alphabetically by last name.
0:14
And we only wanna show the first and
last names.
0:18
So first, let's check out the teacher's
table to see what those columns are named.
0:21
Okay, it looks like,
just like the student's table,
0:26
it's named first name, and last name.
0:29
So, back in the query,
let's select FIRST_NAME and
0:32
LAST_NAME from the teachers table.
0:38
And then, to sort them alphabetically,
let's add an order by.
0:42
Then we need to say what we wanna
sort them alphabetically by, so
0:45
the last name column, and
what order we'd like to use.
0:50
So let's use ASC to represent ascending,
which will give us from A to Z.
0:55
Then if we run the query, there we go.
1:01
All the teachers ordered
alphabetically by last name.
