Postgres ilike any

Query:

postgres ilike any

Explanation:
The query “postgres ilike any” is not a valid PostgreSQL query. “ilike” is a comparison operator in PostgreSQL that allows pattern matching using the “LIKE” operator with case-insensitive matching. However, it should be used with a specific pattern and a specific column or value for comparison.

Let’s consider an example to understand how “ilike” works in PostgreSQL.

Example:
Suppose we have a table named “employees” with the following data:

ID Name Department
1 John Doe IT
2 Jane Smith HR
3 Mark Johnson Sales

To find all the employees with a name containing “ohn”, we can use the “ilike” operator as follows:

  SELECT *
  FROM employees
  WHERE name ilike '%ohn%';
  

This query will return the following result:

ID Name Department
1 John Doe IT
3 Mark Johnson Sales

In this example, the “ilike” operator with the pattern ‘%ohn%’ matches any name that contains the sequence “ohn” regardless of the case (due to case-insensitive matching). It will return both “John Doe” and “Mark Johnson”.
