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”.
