sqliteHow do I create a view in SQLite?

Creating a view in SQLite is a fairly straightforward process. The basic syntax is as follows:

CREATE VIEW view_name AS
SELECT column1, column2, ...
FROM table_name
WHERE [condition];

For example, if we have a table called employees with columns id, name, and age and we want to create a view called employees_over_30 that only shows employees over 30 years old, we can use the following code:

CREATE VIEW employees_over_30 AS
SELECT id, name
FROM employees
WHERE age > 30;

The above code creates a view called employees_over_30 that only shows the id and name of employees over 30 years old.

The parts of the code are as follows:

• CREATE VIEW - tells SQLite to create a view
• employees_over_30 - the name of the view we are creating
• SELECT id, name - the columns we want to include in the view
• FROM employees - the table we are selecting from
• WHERE age > 30 - the condition that the view should satisfy

More information on creating views in SQLite can be found in the SQLite documentation.
