ISO SQL TRIGGER syntax by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
TODO what is the standard compliant syntax?
SQLite does not support SQL stored procedures at all, so maybe that's why they can't be standard compliant here: stackoverflow.com/questions/3335162/creating-stored-procedure-in-sqlite
SQL:1999 11.38 covers "Trigger definition". The Abstract syntax tree starts with the CREATE TRIGGER and ends in:
<triggered SQL statement> ::=
  <SQL procedure statement>
This is defined at 13.5 "SQL procedure statement", but that is humongous and I'm not sure what it is at all.
One of the most nerve wrecking movies ever made. Until they decide to rescue their colleague from jail, then it just becomes too surreal.

"The Capital" is what now is Kaifeng in Shandong, and it used to be the capital during the (Northern) Song dynasty.
In the novel it is simply often simply called as 东京 (capital of the East), which is now highly ambiguous term that can indicate several different historical capitals! Notably it is the name of modern tokyo.
In this example we cache track the number of posts per user on a cache column.
SQL 2D histogram by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
Let's try it on SQLite 3.40.1, Ubuntu 23.04. Data setup:
sqlite3 tmp.sqlite 'create table t(x integer, y integer)'
sqlite3 tmp.sqlite <<EOF
insert into t values
  (0, 0),
  (1, 1),
  (2, 2),
  (3, 3),
  (4, 4),
  (5, 5),
  (6, 6),
  (7, 7),
  (8, 8),
  (9, 9),
  (10, 10),
  (11, 11),
  (12, 12),
  (13, 13),
  (14, 14),
  (15, 15),
  (16, 16),
  (17, 17),
  (18, 18),
  (19, 19),

  (2, 18)
EOF
sqlite3 tmp.sqlite 'create index txy on t(x, y)'
For a bin size of 5 ignoring empty ranges we can:
sqlite3 tmp.sqlite <<EOF
select
  floor(x/5)*5 as x,
  floor(y/5)*5 as y,
  count(*) as cnt
from t
group by 1, 2
order by 1, 2
EOF
which produces the desired:
0|0|5
0|15|1
5|5|5
10|10|5
15|15|5
And to consider empty ranges we can use SQL genenerate_series + as per stackoverflow.com/questions/72367652/populating-empty-bins-in-a-histogram-generated-using-sql:
sqlite3 tmp.sqlite <<EOF
select x, y, sum(cnt) from (
  select
      floor(x/5)*5 as x,
      floor(y/5)*5 as y,
      count(*) as cnt
    from t
    group by 1, 2
  union
  select *, 0 as cnt from generate_series(0, 15, 5) inner join (select * from generate_series(0, 15, 5))
)
group by x, y
EOF
which outputs the desired:
0|0|5
0|5|0
0|10|0
0|15|1
5|0|0
5|5|5
5|10|0
5|15|0
10|0|0
10|5|0
10|10|5
10|15|0
15|0|0
15|5|0
15|10|0
15|15|5

CTE insert values by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
sqlite3 :memory: 'WITH t (i, j) AS (VALUES (1, -1), (2, -2)) SELECT * FROM t'
nodejs/sequelize/raw/parallel_create_delete_empty_tag.js is an example which experimentally seems to be solved by REAPEATABLE READ, although we are not sure that this is truly the case and why. What is clear is that that example is not solved by the SQL READ COMMITTED isolation level.
In PostgreSQL, this is the first isolation level which can lead to postgreSQL serialization failures, this does not happen to SQL READ COMMITTED isolation level in that DBMS. You then have to retry the transaction.
This ISA basically completely dominated the smartphone market of the 2010s and beyond, but it started appearing in other areas as the end of Moore's law made it more economical logical for large companies to start developing their own semiconductor, e.g. Google custom silicon, Amazon custom silicon.
It is exciting to see ARM entering the server, desktop and supercomputer market circa 2020, beyond its dominant mobile position and roots.
Ciro Santilli likes to see the underdogs rise, and bite off dominant ones.
The excitement also applies to RISC-V possibly over ARM mobile market one day conversely however.
Basically, as long as were a huge company seeking to develop a CPU and able to control your own ecosystem independently of Windows' desktop domination (held by the need for backward compatibility with a billion end user programs), ARM would be a possibility on your mind.
Determines what can or cannot happen when multiple queries are running in parallel.
See Section "SQL transaction isolation level" for the most common context under which this is discussed: SQL.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
    Figure 5. . You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally.

  4. Infinitely deep tables of contents:
