Het huidige databasemodel

Sla alleen DISTINCT-gegevens op in de nieuwe tabellen

SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM university_professors;

 count
 -----
 1377

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT organization) 
FROM university_professors;

 count
 -----
 1287

Voeg DISTINCT-records toe aan de nieuwe tabellen

INSERT INTO organizations 
SELECT DISTINCT organization, 
    organization_sector
FROM university_professors;

Output: INSERT 0 1287

INSERT INTO organizations 
SELECT organization, 
    organization_sector
FROM university_professors;

Output: INSERT 0 1377

De INSERT INTO-instructie

INSERT INTO table_name (column_a, column_b)
VALUES ("value_a", "value_b");

 university_shortname text,
 function text,

);

ALTER TABLE table_name
RENAME COLUMN old_name TO new_name;

Verwijder een kolom in affiliations

CREATE TABLE affiliations (
 firstname text,
 lastname text,
 university_shortname text,
 function text,
 organization text
);

ALTER TABLE table_name
DROP COLUMN column_name;

SELECT DISTINCT firstname, lastname, 
    university_shortname 
FROM university_professors
ORDER BY lastname;

-[ RECORD 1 ]--------+-------------
firstname            | Karl
lastname             | Aberer
university_shortname | EPF
-[ RECORD 2 ]--------+-------------
firstname            | Reza Shokrollah
