Usage
First, check that a file named sqlite_shell.py
exists alongside the assignment files.
If you don't see it, or if you encounter problems with it, scroll down to the Troubleshooting
section to see how to download an official precompiled SQLite binary before proceeding.
You can start an interactive SQLite session in your Terminal or Git Bash with the following command:
python3 sqlite_shell.py
While the interpreter is running, you can type .help
to see some of the
commands you can run.
To exit out of the SQLite interpreter, type .exit
or .quit
or press
Ctrl-C
. Remember that if you see ...>
after pressing enter, you probably
forgot a ;
.
You can also run all the statements in a .sql
file by doing the following:
-
Runs your code and then exits SQLite immediately afterwards.
python3 sqlite_shell.py < lab12.sql
-
Runs your code and then opens an interactive SQLite session, which is similar to running Python code with the interactive
-i
flag.python3 sqlite_shell.py --init lab12.sql
To complete this homework assignment, you will need to use SQLite version 3.8.3 or greater.
To check your progress, you can run sqlite3
directly by running:
python3 sqlite_shell.py --init hw09.sql
You should also check your work using ok
:
python3 ok
Questions
Assignment Hint Video
This video provides some helpful direction for tackling problems on this assignment.
SQL
Dog Data
In each question below, you will define a new table based on the following tables.
CREATE TABLE parents AS
SELECT "abraham" AS parent, "barack" AS child UNION
SELECT "abraham" , "clinton" UNION
SELECT "delano" , "herbert" UNION
SELECT "fillmore" , "abraham" UNION
SELECT "fillmore" , "delano" UNION
SELECT "fillmore" , "grover" UNION
SELECT "eisenhower" , "fillmore";
CREATE TABLE dogs AS
SELECT "abraham" AS name, "long" AS fur, 26 AS height UNION
SELECT "barack" , "short" , 52 UNION
SELECT "clinton" , "long" , 47 UNION
SELECT "delano" , "long" , 46 UNION
SELECT "eisenhower" , "short" , 35 UNION
SELECT "fillmore" , "curly" , 32 UNION
SELECT "grover" , "short" , 28 UNION
SELECT "herbert" , "curly" , 31;
CREATE TABLE sizes AS
SELECT "toy" AS size, 24 AS min, 28 AS max UNION
SELECT "mini" , 28 , 35 UNION
SELECT "medium" , 35 , 45 UNION
SELECT "standard" , 45 , 60;
Your tables should still perform correctly even if the values in these tables change. For example, if you are asked to list all dogs with a name that starts with h, you should write:
SELECT name FROM dogs WHERE "h" <= name AND name < "i";
Instead of assuming that the dogs
table has only the data above and writing
SELECT "herbert";
The former query would still be correct if the name grover
were changed to
hoover
or a row was added with the name harry
.
Q1: Size of Dogs
The Fédération Cynologique Internationale classifies a standard poodle as over 45 cm and up to 60 cm. Thesizes
table describes this and other such
classifications, where a dog must be over the min
and less than or equal to
the max
in height
to qualify as a size
.
Create a size_of_dogs
table with two columns, one for each dog's name
and
another for its size
.
-- The size of each dog
CREATE TABLE size_of_dogs AS
SELECT "REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR SOLUTION";
The output should look like the following:
sqlite> select * from size_of_dogs;
abraham|toy
barack|standard
clinton|standard
delano|standard
eisenhower|mini
fillmore|mini
grover|toy
herbert|mini
使用 Ok 来测试你的代码:
python3 ok -q size_of_dogs
Q2: By Parent Height
Create a tableby_parent_height
that has a column of the names of all dogs that have
a parent
, ordered by the height of the parent from tallest parent to shortest
parent.
-- All dogs with parents ordered by decreasing height of their parent
CREATE TABLE by_parent_height AS
SELECT "REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR SOLUTION";
For example, fillmore
has a parent (eisenhower
) with height 35, and so
should appear before grover
who has a parent (fillmore
) with height 32.
The names of dogs with parents of the same height should appear together in any
order. For example, barack
and clinton
should both appear at the end, but
either one can come before the other.
sqlite> select * from by_parent_height;
herbert
fillmore
abraham
delano
grover
barack
clinton
使用 Ok 来测试你的代码:
python3 ok -q by_parent_height
Q3: Sentences
There are two pairs of siblings that have the same size. Create a table that contains a row with a string for each of these pairs. Each string should be a sentence describing the siblings by their size.-- Filling out this helper table is optional
CREATE TABLE siblings AS
SELECT "REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR SOLUTION";
-- Sentences about siblings that are the same size
CREATE TABLE sentences AS
SELECT "REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR SOLUTION";
Each sibling pair should appear only once in the output, and siblings should be
listed in alphabetical order (e.g. "barack plus clinton..."
instead of
"clinton plus barack..."
), as follows:
sqlite> select * from sentences;
The two siblings, barack plus clinton have the same size: standard
The two siblings, abraham plus grover have the same size: toy
Hint: First, create a helper table containing each pair of siblings. This will make comparing the sizes of siblings when constructing the main table easier.
Hint: If you join a table with itself, use
AS
within theFROM
clause to give each table an alias.Hint: In order to concatenate two strings into one, use the
||
operator.

python3 ok -q sentences

Troubleshooting/Advanced SQLite
Troubleshooting
Python already comes with a built-in SQLite database engine to process SQL. However, it doesn't come with a "shell" to let you interact with it from the terminal. Because of this, until now, you have been using a simplified SQLite shell written by us. However, you may find the shell is old, buggy, or lacking in features. In that case, you may want to download and use the official SQLite executable.
If running python3 sqlite_shell.py
didn't work, you can download a precompiled sqlite directly
by following the following instructions and then use sqlite3
and ./sqlite3
instead
of python3 sqlite_shell.py
based on which is specified for your platform.
However, before proceeding, please remove (or rename) any SQLite executables
(sqlite3
, sqlite_shell.py
, and the like)
from the current folder, or they may conflict with the official one you download below.
Similarly, if you wish to switch back later,
please remove or rename the one you downloaded and restore the files you removed.
Windows
- Visit the download page linked above and navigate to the section Precompiled Binaries for Windows. Click on the link sqlite-tools-win32-x86-*.zip to download the binary.
- Unzip the file. There should be a
sqlite3.exe
file in the directory after extraction. -
Navigate to the folder containing the
sqlite3.exe
file and check that the version is at least 3.8.3:$ cd path/to/sqlite $ ./sqlite3 --version 3.12.1 2016-04-08 15:09:49 fe7d3b75fe1bde41511b323925af8ae1b910bc4d
macOS Yosemite (10.10) or newer
SQLite comes pre-installed. Check that you have a version that's greater than 3.8.3:
$ sqlite3
SQLite version 3.8.10.2
Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9) or older
SQLite comes pre-installed, but it is the wrong version.
- Visit the download page linked above and navigate to the section Precompiled Binaries for Mac OS X (x86). Click on the link sqlite-tools-osx-x86-*.zip to download the binary.
- Unzip the file. There should be a
sqlite3
file in the directory after extraction. -
Navigate to the folder containing the
sqlite3
file and check that the version is at least 3.8.3:$ cd path/to/sqlite $ ./sqlite3 --version 3.12.1 2016-04-08 15:09:49 fe7d3b75fe1bde41511b323925af8ae1b910bc4d
Ubuntu
The easiest way to use SQLite on Ubuntu is to install it straight from the native repositories (the version will be slightly behind the most recent release):
$ sudo apt install sqlite3
$ sqlite3 --version
3.8.6 2014-08-15 11:46:33 9491ba7d738528f168657adb43a198238abde19e
