- What is a NULL value?arrow_forward10. Sometimes logic for a query can be quite complex. It is possible to produce the desired outcomes through the use of subqueries, inline views, and UNION-type statements. For those methods, the transitional results are not saved in the database but are directly used within the query. This can lead to achievement issues, particularly when the transitional results have a huge number of Explain. a. columns b. rows c. reports d. databasesarrow_forwardBy using this table answer this question: Write ONE SQL statement which uses the SUBSTR function (as many times as you need to) to extract the following three words: ‘I’, ‘am’, ‘here’ from the string ‘Where am I?’ and put the three words together using a combination of the CONCAT function and the ||. E.g. The starting string used in the SQL statement is: ‘Where am I?’ The output of the SQL statement after we run it will be: TRANS ---------- I am herearrow_forward
