1.14.1. What is the SQLite operator?

Operator is a reserved word or character that is used primarily for SQLite Statement of WHERE Clause, such as comparisons and arithmetic operations.

Operator is used to specify SQLite Statement and join multiple conditions in the statement.

  • Arithmetic operator

  • Comparison operator

  • Logical operator

  • Bit operator

1.14.2. SQLite arithmetic operator

Suppose the variable axi10 and the variable baked 20, then:

Operator

Description

Example

Addition-adds the values on both sides of the operator

A + b will get 30

Subtraction-left Operand minus right Operand

A-b will get-10

*

Multiplication-multiplies the values on both sides of the operator

A* b will get 200

/

Division-left Operand divided by right Operand

B / a will get 2.

%

The remainder obtained by dividing the left Operand by the right Operand.

B a will give 0

1.14.3. Example

Here is a simple example of the SQLite arithmetic operator:

sqlite> .mode line
sqlite> select 10 + 20;
10 + 20 = 30


sqlite> select 10 - 20;
10 - 20 = -10


sqlite> select 10 * 20;
10 * 20 = 200


sqlite> select 10 / 5;
10 / 5 = 2


sqlite> select 12 %  5;
12 %  5 = 2

1.14.4. SQLite comparison operator

Suppose the variable axi10 and the variable baked 20, then:

Operator

Description

Example

==

Check whether the values of the two operands are equal, and if so, the condition is true.

(a = = b) is not true.

=

Check whether the values of the two operands are equal, and if so, the condition is true.

(a = b) is not true.

! =

Check whether the values of the two operands are equal, and if not, the condition is true.

(a! = b) true.

< >

Check whether the values of the two operands are equal, and if not, the condition is true.

(a < > b) is true.

>

Check whether the value of the left Operand is greater than that of the right Operand, and if so, the condition is true.

(a > b) not true.

<

Check whether the value of the left Operand is less than the value of the right Operand, and if so, the condition is true.

(a < b) is true.

> =

Check whether the value of the left Operand is greater than or equal to the value of the right Operand, and if so, the condition is true.

(a > = b) not true.

< =

Check whether the value of the left Operand is less than or equal to the value of the right Operand, and if so, the condition is true.

(a < = b) is true.

! <

Check that the value of the left Operand is not less than that of the right Operand, and if so, the condition is true.

(a! < b) is false.

! >

Check that the value of the left Operand is not greater than that of the right Operand, and if so, the condition is true.

(a! > b) true.

1.14.5. Example

Hypothetical COMPANY The table has the following records:

ID          NAME        AGE         ADDRESS     SALARY
----------  ----------  ----------  ----------  ----------
1           Paul        32          California  20000.0
2           Allen       25          Texas       15000.0
3           Teddy       23          Norway      20000.0
4           Mark        25          Rich-Mond   65000.0
5           David       27          Texas       85000.0
6           Kim         22          South-Hall  45000.0
7           James       24          Houston     10000.0

The following examples demonstrate a variety of SQLite Compare the use of operators.

Here, we use the WHERE Clause, which will be explained in a separate chapter later, but now you need to understand WHERE Clause is used to set the SELECT The conditional statement of the statement.

1.14.6. SQLite logical operator

The following is SQLite A list of all logical operators in the

Operator

Description

AND

The AND operator allows the existence of multiple conditions in the WHERE clause of a SQL statement.

BETWEEN

The BETWEEN operator is used to search for values among a series of values within a given range of minimum and maximum values.

EXISTS

The EXISTS operator is used to search for the existence of rows in a specified table that meets certain conditions.

IN

The IN operator is used to compare a value with a series of values in a specified list.

NOT IN

The opposite of the IN operator that compares a value with values that are not in a specified list.

LIKE

The LIKE operator is used to compare a value with a similar value using a wildcard operator.

GLOB

The GLOB operator is used to compare a value with a similar value using a wildcard operator. GLOB differs from LIKE in that it is case-sensitive.

NOT

The NOT operator is the opposite of the logical operator used. Such as NOT EXISTS, NOT BETWEEN, NOT IN, and so on. It is the negative operator.

OR

The OR operator is used to combine multiple conditions in the WHERE clause of a SQL statement.

IS NULL

The NULL operator is used to compare a value with a NULL value.

IS

The IS operator is similar to =.

IS NOT

The IS NOT operator is similar to! =.

||

Concatenate two different strings to get a new string.

UNIQUE

The UNIQUE operator searches each row in the specified table to ensure uniqueness (no repetition).

Suppose that if A = 60 and B = 13, now in binary format, they are as follows:

A = 0011 1100
B = 0000 1101
-----------------
A&B = 0000 1100
A|B = 0011 1101
~A  = 1100 0011

Listed in the following table SQLite The bit operator supported by the language. Suppose the variable Aban 60 and the variable Bamboo 13, then:

Operator

Description

Example

&

If it exists in both operands, the binary AND operator copies a bit to the result.

(a & B) will get 12, that is, 0000 1100


If it exists in any Operand, the binary OR operator copies a bit into the result.

(a | B) will get 61, that is, 0011 1101

~

The binary complement operator is a unary operator with a “flip” bit effect, that is, 0 becomes 1, 1 becomes 0.

(~ A) will get-61, that is, 1100 0011, a complement of signed binary numbers.

< <

Binary left shift operator. The value of the left Operand moves the number of digits specified by the right Operand to the left.

A < < 2 will get 240, that is, 1111 0000

> >

Binary right shift operator. The value of the left Operand moves the number of digits specified by the right Operand to the right.

A > > 2 will get 15, that is 0000 1111

1.14.9. Example

The following example demonstrates SQLite The use of bit operators:

sqlite> .mode line
sqlite> select 60 | 13;
60 | 13 = 61

sqlite> select 60 & 13;
60 & 13 = 12

sqlite>  select  (~60);
(~60) = -61

sqlite>  select  (60 << 2);
(60 << 2) = 240

sqlite>  select  (60 >> 2);
(60 >> 2) = 15
Principles, Technologies, and Methods of Geographic Information Systems  102

In recent years, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have undergone rapid development in both theoretical and practical dimensions. GIS has been widely applied for modeling and decision-making support across various fields such as urban management, regional planning, and environmental remediation, establishing geographic information as a vital component of the information era. The introduction of the “Digital Earth” concept has further accelerated the advancement of GIS, which serves as its technical foundation. Concurrently, scholars have been dedicated to theoretical research in areas like spatial cognition, spatial data uncertainty, and the formalization of spatial relationships. This reflects the dual nature of GIS as both an applied technology and an academic discipline, with the two aspects forming a mutually reinforcing cycle of progress.
