Task 1: SQL Queries
(i) Display the full details for all members - the name details (given and family) should be shown in one column called 'Member Name' and the address details (street, city, state and postcode) in one column called 'Member Address'
(ii) Display the full details for all members who live in a particular postcode selected by the user at query execution time (this may be achieved using a substitution variable for the postcode). You should display the data in member number order. A substitution variable may be used in SQL Developer to prompt the user for a value at query execution time by using a place holder such as &myvalue.
select * from product where prod_no=&myvalue
or
select * from product where prod_name = '&myvalue'
(in the first example prod_no is numeric, in the second prod_name is character). The user entered value is then substituted for the placeholder and the query executed with this value.
