Antigravity Agent e9cbf23ab5 docs(10_Wiki): Dev 폴더 누락분 반영 — Topic_Programming으로 통합
이전 재구성 작업에서 Dev/ 폴더가 누락되었던 것을 반영.

- Dev/Topic_Programming(중첩 폴더, 78개)은 Dev 자체 최상위 폴더들
  (Architecture/Conventions/Engineering_Intelligence 등)과 완전 중복이라 제거.
- Dev 최상위 엔지니어링 지식 폴더(Architecture/Conventions/Engineering_Intelligence/
  Failure_Library/Generalized_Principles/Language/Pattern_Catalog/Platform_Guides/
  Subsystems, 77개)는 이미 Topic_Programming/Topic_Programming에 더 최신 버전이
  존재해 중복 제거(고유 콘텐츠 1개는 예외 처리하여 이동 보존).
- Dev의 W3Schools 언어 튜토리얼 폴더(Topic_C/CPP/CSS/CSharp/HOWTO/HTML/Java/
  JavaScript/PHP/Python/SQL/W3CSS, 1201개)는 전부 Topic_Programming 하위로 이동.
- 에이전트 운영 상태(.astra/docs)는 그대로 유지, 콘텐츠 폴더만 정리.
- Topic_Programming 최종 문서 수: 2784 → 3985.

SQL Not Null

🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)

NOT NULL forces a column to always hold a value — columns are nullable by default — and can be added to or removed from an existing table via vendor-specific ALTER TABLE syntax. [S1]

🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)

  • NOT NULL constraint — enforces a column to not accept NULL values; you cannot insert/update a record without a value for that field. [S1]
  • Default is nullable — columns accept NULL by default unless NOT NULL is specified. [S1]
  • On CREATE TABLE — add NOT NULL after the column's data type. [S1]
  • On ALTER TABLE — vendor-specific: SQL Server/MS Access use ALTER COLUMN, MySQL uses MODIFY COLUMN, Oracle 10G+ uses MODIFY. [S1]
  • Removing NOT NULL — same vendor-specific ALTER syntax, but specifying NULL instead of NOT NULL. [S1]

📖 세부 내용 (Details)

  • On table creation: CREATE TABLE Persons (ID int NOT NULL, LastName varchar(255) NOT NULL, FirstName varchar(255) NOT NULL, Age int);. [S1]
  • Add NOT NULL after creation (SQL Server/Access): ALTER TABLE Persons ALTER COLUMN Age int NOT NULL;. [S1]
  • Add NOT NULL after creation (MySQL): ALTER TABLE Persons MODIFY COLUMN Age int NOT NULL;. [S1]
  • Remove NOT NULL (SQL Server/Access): ALTER TABLE Persons ALTER COLUMN Age int NULL;. [S1]

⚖️ 모순 및 업데이트 (Contradictions & updates)

  • 벤더별 ALTER 문법 차이: SQL Server/Access(ALTER COLUMN) vs. MySQL(MODIFY COLUMN) vs. Oracle(MODIFY)가 서로 다름. [S1]

🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)

현재 발견된 실제 적용 사례가 없습니다 — PRIMARY KEY의 구성 요소(UNIQUE + NOT NULL) 중 하나로 재사용된다. [S1]

💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)

NOT NULL on table creation (SQL):

CREATE TABLE Persons (
    ID int NOT NULL,
    LastName varchar(255) NOT NULL,
    FirstName varchar(255) NOT NULL,
    Age int
);
