BEGIN {TRANSACTION|TRAN};

SQL queries;

COMMIT;

“insert” query:

The INSERT command in SQL is employed to add records to an existing table. INSERT will increase the number of rows in a table.

Syntax for INSERT command:

INSERT INTO table_name VALUES (value1, value2…);

Example:

INSERT INTO employee VALUES(101, ‘Smith’,10);

“update” query:

The UPDATE command is employed to update information present in a table.

It is always used with SET keyword either in bulk or individually. UPDATE will not increase the number of rows in a table.

Syntax for UPDATE command:

UPDATE table_name SET column_name1 = value WHERE some_condition;

Example:

UPDATE employee SET name= ‘Presil’ age= 24 WHERE id=115;

The CashRegister class should be able to internally keep a list of RetailItem objects. The class should have the following methods: A method named purchase_item that accepts a RetailItem object as an argument. Each time the purchase_item method is called, the RetailItem object that is passed as an argument should be added to the list. A method named get_total that returns the total price of all the RetailItem objects stored in the CashRegister object’s internal list. A method named show_items that displays data about the RetailItem objects stored in the CashRegister object’s internal list. A method named clear that should clear the CashRegister object’s internal list. Demonstrate the CashRegister class in a program that allows the user to select several items for purchase. When the user is ready to check out, the…
5. RetailItem ClassWrite a class named RetailItem that holds data about an item in a retail store. The class should store the following data in attributes: item description, units in inventory, and price. Once you have written the class, write a program that creates three RetailItem objects and stores the following data in them: Description    Units in Inventory    PriceItem #1    Jacket    12    59.95Item #2    Designer Jeans    40    34.95Item #3    Shirt    20    24.95
Find the Error: class Information:     def __init__(self, name, address, age, phone_number):         self.__name = name         self.__address = address         self.__age = age         self.__phone_number = phone_number   def main():     my_info = Information('John Doe','111 My Street', \                                '555-555-1281')
