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 Where

🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)

The WHERE clause filters records to only those that fulfill a specific condition, and works not just in SELECT but also in UPDATE and DELETE statements. [S1]

🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)

  • WHERE clause — extracts only records that satisfy a given condition; usable in SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE. [S1]
  • WHERE syntaxSELECT column1, column2, ... FROM table_name WHERE condition;. [S1]
  • Text vs. numeric fields — text values must be wrapped in single quotes ('Mexico'), while numeric fields should NOT be quoted. [S1]
  • Comparison operators in WHERE=, >, <, >=, <=, <> (or != in some SQL dialects), plus BETWEEN, LIKE, IN. [S1]

🧩 추출된 패턴 (Extracted patterns)

  • Quote-by-type rule — quote text values, never quote numeric values, when writing WHERE conditions. [S1]
  • WHERE is statement-agnostic — the same filtering syntax generalizes across SELECT/UPDATE/DELETE rather than being SELECT-specific. [S1]

⚖️ 비교 및 선택 기준 (Comparison & decision criteria)

항목 (Option) 장점 단점 언제 선택
= 단일 값 비교 가장 단순하고 명확함 범위·패턴 조건 표현 불가 정확히 일치하는 값 하나를 찾을 때
BETWEEN / IN / LIKE 범위·목록·패턴 조건을 간결하게 표현 단순 비교보다 읽기/성능 비용이 더 들 수 있음 범위 필터, 다중 후보값, 부분 문자열 매칭이 필요할 때

📖 세부 내용 (Details)

  • Select all customers from Mexico: [S1]
SELECT * FROM Customers
WHERE Country = 'Mexico';
  • Numeric fields are not quoted: [S1]
SELECT * FROM Customers
WHERE CustomerID = 1;
  • Operators other than = can filter the search, e.g. greater-than: [S1]
SELECT * FROM Customers
WHERE CustomerID > 80;
  • Operators available in the WHERE clause: = (equal), > (greater than), < (less than), >= (greater than or equal), <= (less than or equal), <> (not equal — written != in some SQL versions), BETWEEN (range), LIKE (pattern search), IN (multiple possible values). [S1]

⚖️ 모순 및 업데이트 (Contradictions & updates)

  • <> vs !=: 소스 자체가 "일부 SQL 버전에서는 <>!=로 쓰일 수 있다"고 명시 — 표준 표기(<>)와 방언별 표기(!=)가 공존함을 알려줌. [S1]

🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)

현재 발견된 실제 적용 사례가 없습니다 — WHERE 절은 이후 AND/OR/NOT, JOIN, GROUP BY 등 조건부 쿼리 전반에서 반복적으로 재사용되는 핵심 문법이다. [S1]

💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)

Filter by text value (SQL):

SELECT * FROM Customers
WHERE Country = 'Mexico';

Filter by numeric comparison (SQL):

SELECT * FROM Customers
WHERE CustomerID > 80;
