What’s a book you think deserves a sequel?

I used to write programs against large Oracle databases. The language was SQL which means structured query language. PLSQL was the programming language.

The Old Testement

I had all these user manuals on a shelf on my desk. One day we were moving offices and I was asked to put all my books on a cart for moving. I attempted to kill two stones with one bird and put them in it trashcan, which was under my desk which had to be moved anyways.

The next day, all the books were gone.

I don’t think I ever use a hard bound programming book ever again. At this point, everything was online.

I did teach courses in the same subject, and there was always one student who always wanted a hard copy.

I was never good at using a copy machine, but I guess that one copy for that student was the Sql sequel.

      Either way

      SQL stands for Structured Query Language. It is the standard programming language used to communicate, manage, and manipulate relational databases.
