MySQL Insert Statement

The INSERT statement is used to insert data into a table in MySQL. The syntax for the INSERT statement is:

INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2, ...)

VALUES (value1, value2, ...);

The table_name is the name of the table that you want to insert data into. The column1, column2, ... are the names of the columns that you want to insert data into. The value1, value2, ... are the values that you want to insert into the columns.

You can also use the INSERT statement to insert multiple rows of data into a table. To do this, you use the VALUES clause multiple times. For example:

INSERT INTO customers (customer_id, customer_name, customer_email)

VALUES (1, 'John Doe', 'johndoe@example.com'),

       (2, 'Jane Doe', 'janedoe@example.com');

This statement inserts two rows of data into the customers table.

For more information on the INSERT statement, please see the MySQL documentation.

Here are some tips for using the INSERT statement:

Make sure that the number of values in the VALUES clause matches the number of columns in the table.

If you are inserting a string value, make sure to enclose it in single or double quotes.

If you are inserting a date or time value, make sure to use the correct format.

If you are inserting a NULL value, use the keyword NULL.

The INSERT statement is a powerful tool that can be used to insert data into tables in MySQL. By using it carefully, you can ensure that your data is inserted correctly.
