MySQL SQL Syntax

MySQL uses standard SQL (Structured Query Language).

However, there are some differences between standard SQL and MySQL SQL.

Most of the actions you need to perform on a database are done with SQL statements.

Semicolon after SQL Statements?

Some database systems require a semicolon at the end of each SQL statement.

Semicolon is the standard way to separate each SQL statement in database systems that allow more than one SQL statement to be executed in the same call to the server.

MySQL supports semicolon.

Example

SELECT * FROM Customers;
