Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) Question:
Define SQL and state the differences between SQL and other conventional programming Languages?

SQL is a nonprocedural language that is designed specifically for data access operations on normalized relational database structures. The primary difference between SQL and other conventional programming languages is that SQL statements specify what data operations should be performed rather than how to perform them.
