How can where puts a limitation on column it can only check for the conditions and display rows accordingly. The columns can only be specified with select clause.

Can we write the syntax as:

select 'ename' from records where salary>260000;

Where records is table name and ename is employee name why not?

Where basically used to filter Records(Rows).

select * from emp where ename='smith';

So, Here we are putting Restriction on the rows only.

Where clause is used to limit the row. If I want to display only those student name who achieve greater than 80 then we limit the row.

The SQL WHERE clause limits the row data that are returned. We limit column data only in the first select clause.

Because in where clause we use the condition on the row tuple and not on the coloum. So b is correct ans.

Where Clause comes under selection.

In selection we can select rows only.
