Question

In the following SQL statement, what does "STUDENT" represent?

SELECT EagleID FROM STUDENT;

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

In SQL, identifiers like STUDENT can refer to database objects such as tables, views, or aliases depending on context. Here, the statement SELECT EagleID FROM STUDENT implies that STUDENT is the source from which EagleID is being selected. 
Option 1: "a file of data named \"STUDENT\"". This is not how SQL references data sources in a standard FROM clause; SQL does not automatically treat a file by that name as the data source without specific external table definitions or loader syntax. 
Option 2: "a Python dictionary in a variable named \"STUDENT\"". SQL operates within a database system and does not reference in-language variables like Python dictionaries in a plain SQL statement, so this interpretation mismatches SQL semantics. 
Option 3: "a student's record in Eagle Apps". A single student record is a row, not the entire source table being referenced in a FROM clause; moreover, the syntax suggests a table or relation named STUDENT rather than a single row, making this interpretation unlikely. 
Option 4: "A database table named \"STUDENT\"". This matches SQL usage: FROM <table_name> refers to a table (relation) named STUDENT from which EagleID is selected. The statement would return the EagleID values for all rows in that table, assuming the column exists, which aligns with standard relational database terminology.
