Nobel Quiz

1. Pick the code which shows the name of winner's names beginning with C and ending in n

SELECT name FROM nobel WHERE winner LIKE '%C%' AND winner LIKE '%n%'
SELECT name FROM nobel WHERE winner LIKE '%C' AND winner LIKE 'n%'
SELECT name FROM nobel WHERE winner LIKE 'C%' AND winner LIKE '%n'
SELECT winner FROM nobel WHERE winner LIKE '%C' AND winner LIKE 'n%'
SELECT winner FROM nobel WHERE winner LIKE 'C%' AND winner LIKE '%n'

2. Select the code that shows how many Chemistry awards were given between 1950 and 1960

SELECT COUNT(subject) FROM nobel WHERE subject = 'Chemistry' AND BETWEEN 1950 and 1960
SELECT COUNT(subject) FROM nobel WHERE subject = 'Chemistry' AND yr BETWEEN (1950, 1960)
SELECT COUNT(subject) FROM nobel WHERE subject = 'Chemistry' AND yr BETWEEN 1950 and 1960
SELECT subject FROM nobel WHERE subject = 'Chemistry' AND yr BETWEEN 1950 and 1960
SELECT subject FROM nobel WHERE subject = 'Chemistry' AND yr BETWEEN (1950, 1960)

3. Pick the code that shows the amount of years where no Medicine awards were given

SELECT COUNT(yr) FROM nobel WHERE subject NOT IN 'Medicine'
SELECT COUNT(yr) FROM nobel WHERE subject NOT LIKE 'Medicine'
SELECT COUNT(yr) FROM nobel WHERE subject NOT 'Medicine'
SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject <> 'Medicine'
SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject NOT LIKE 'Medicine'

4. Select the code which would show the year when neither a Physics or Chemistry award was given

SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject IN ('Chemistry','Physics'))
SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject NOT IN(SELECT subject from nobel WHERE subject IN ('Chemistry','Physics'))
SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE yr NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject IN ('Chemistry','Physics'))
SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE yr NOT IN(SELECT subject from nobel WHERE subject IN ('Chemistry','Physics'))
SELECT yr FROM subject WHERE yr NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject IN ('Chemistry','Physics'))

5. Select the code which shows the years when a Medicine award was given but no Peace or Literature award was

SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject='Medicine' and subject NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject='Literature') and yr NOT IN (SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject='Peace')
SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject='Medicine' and yr NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject='Literature' AND subject='Peace')
SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject='Medicine' and yr NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject='Literature') and yr NOT IN (SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject='Peace')
SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM subject WHERE subject='Medicine' and yr NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject='Literature' and subject='Peace')
SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM subject WHERE subject='Medicine' and yr NOT IN(SELECT yr from nobel WHERE subject='Literature') and yr NOT IN (SELECT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject='Peace')
