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…);

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

The pilots on each flight are distinct and the likelihood of any pilot getting sick is independent of the likelihood of any other pilot getting sick.  Southern believes that the probability of any given pilot getting sick is 0.15.  A) Run a simulation of this situation with at least 1000 iterations and report the following for the present policy (no reserve pilots) and the proposed policy (four reserve pilots): The average daily utilization of the aircraft (percentage of total flights that fly) The…
