SQL is easy to write. Correct SQL takes judgment. SQL Puzzles & Brain Teasers is a hands-on collection of more than 150 challenges designed to strengthen the way you reason about queries—not merely the syntax you remember. Work through realistic scenarios involving missing rows, misleading aggregates, NULL logic, joins, dates, ranking, window functions, recursive CTEs, set operations, gaps and islands, relational division, and more. Each puzzle invites you to predict the result, find the flaw, improve the query, or discover a cleaner solution before turning to the detailed explanation. Inside you’ll find: • Progressive challenges from warm-ups to advanced “brain melters” Whether you are learning SQL, preparing for an interview, sharpening your code-review instincts, or simply enjoy solving technical puzzles, this book will help you recognize the patterns behind reliable queries. Don’t just memorize more SQL. Build the judgment to know what your query will actually do.
