SQLite Code:

-- Selecting the "job_id" and the maximum salary for each job
SELECT job_id, MAX(salary) 
-- Specifying the table from which to retrieve the data, in this case, "employees"
FROM employees 
-- Grouping the results by the "job_id" column
GROUP BY job_id 
-- Filtering the grouped results to include only those with a maximum salary greater than or equal to 4000
HAVING MAX(salary) >= 4000;

Output:

Explanation:

The above SQLite query retrieves the "job_id" and aggregates various salary statistics for each job in the "employees" table, considering only those in department 90. The results are grouped by the "job_id" column.

Here's a brief explanation of each part of SQLite code:

  • SELECT clause:
    • It selects the "job_id" column.
    • It calculates the maximum salary for each job using the MAX function.
  • FROM clause:
    • Specifies the table from which to retrieve the data, in this case, the "employees" table.
  • GROUP BY clause:
    • Groups the results by the "job_id" column. This means that the maximum salary is calculated separately for each unique job.
  • HAVING clause:
    • Filters the grouped results to include only those groups (jobs) where the maximum salary is greater than or equal to 4000.
