How to display only 200 characters from total value in MySQL?
You can use LEFT() from MySQL to display some character from the entire value in MySQL. Following is the syntax:
select left(yourColumnName ,200 ) AS anyAliasName from yourTableName;
Let us first create a table:
mysql> create table DemoTable (Paragraph longtext); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.71 sec)
Following is the query to insert records in the table using insert command:
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('Introduction to Java,Introduction to C,Introduction to
C++,Introduction to Spring,Introduction to Hibernate,Introduction to Python,Introduction to
MySQL,Introduction to MongoDB,Introduction to SQL Server,Introduction to
ASP.net,Introduction to JSF');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)Following is the query to display records from the table using select command:
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Paragraph | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Introduction to Java,Introduction to C,Introduction to C++,Introduction to Spring,Introduction to Hibernate,Introduction to Python,Introduction to MySQL,Introduction to MongoDB,Introduction to SQL Server,Introduction to ASP.net,Introduction to JSF | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to display only 200 characters from the total value:
mysql> select left(Paragraph ,200) AS `200Characters` from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output displaying only the first 200 characters:
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 200Characters | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Introduction to Java,Introduction to C,Introduction to C++,Introduction to Spring,Introduction to Hibernate,Introduction to Python,Introduction to MySQL,Introduction to MongoDB,Introduction to SQL Ser | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
