Line 1:
Data Query Language (DQL) is part of the base grouping of [[SQL]] sub-languages. These sub-languages are mainly categorized into four categories, [[DDL]], DQL, [[DML]] and [[DCL]]. Sometimes [[TCL]] is argued to be part of the sub-language set as well.
DQL statements are used for performing queries on the data within schema objects. The purpose of DQL commands is to get the schema relation based on the query passed to it.
Although often considered part of [[DML]], the [[SQL]] [[SELECT]] statement is strictly speaking an example of DQL. When adding FROM or WHERE data manipulators to the SELECT statement the statement is then considered part of the DML.
