CASE

WHEN conditionN THEN resultN

-- example:
SELECT
CASE
WHEN (1+6 = 6) THEN 'A'
WHEN (1+6 = 7) THEN 'B'
WHEN (1+6 = 8) THEN 'C'

-- OUTPUT: Bcase when switch in SQL
-- Case Eg.) to retrive the MAX value of a Field
-- if there are entries for the Field in table MAX value will be returned
-- But if there is no entries at all for the Field in tabel MAX will return
-- Null as the output. But Using Case When we can check it out return zero
-- or any other value if there is no enties for the Field in table..
SELECT
CASE -- Like Switch Case
WHEN -- First When condition
(MAX(BILLID) IS NULL) -- Condition
THEN 1 -- output (We can also add more When conditions like Above)
ELSE -- When WHEN Condition not Satisfied Below will be Executed.
(MAX(BILLID)) -- output
END
as MAXBILLID from DUAL;
-- Final Output
-- If there is no entry in the Field for the table
-- BILLID
-- 1
-- If there are entries MAX of that Field value from the table
-- BILLID

Change query output depending on conditions.
Example: Returns users and their subscriptions, along with a new column
called activity_levels that makes a judgement based on the number of
subscriptions.
SELECT first_name, surname, subscriptions
CASE WHEN subscriptions > 10 THEN 'Very active'
WHEN Quantity BETWEEN 3 AND 10 THEN 'Active'
ELSE 'Inactive'
END AS activity_levels
FROM users;Case in sql
SELECT OrderID, Quantity,
CASE
WHEN Quantity > 30
THEN 'The quantity is greater than 30'
WHEN Quantity = 30 THEN 'The
quantity is 30'
ELSE 'The quantity is under 30'
END AS QuantityText
