Sample Solution:

-- Selecting specific columns (first_name, last_name, salary, department_id) from the 'employees' table
SELECT first_name, last_name, salary, department_id 

-- Filtering rows based on the condition that the 'salary' is less than all salaries in the result set of a subquery
FROM employees

-- Subquery to find salaries where the 'department_id' is 70 in the 'employees' table
WHERE salary < ALL 
     (SELECT salary 
       FROM employees 
         WHERE department_id = 70);

Code Explanation:

The said query in SQL that retrieves data from the 'employees' table. The columns selected are "first_name", "last_name", "salary", and "department_id". The query only returns rows where the salary in the 'employees' table is less than the salary of all employees in department 70.
The subquery in the WHERE clause selects the salary of all employees in department 70 from the 'employees' table. It compares the result of the subquery to the salary of each row in the 'employees' table, and it returns only the rows with salaries less than department 70's salaries.

Visual Presentation:

SQL Subqueries: Display the first and last name, salary, and department ID for those employees who earn less than the minimum salary of a department which ID is 70.

Alternative Solutions:

Using JOIN with < Operator:


SELECT e1.first_name, e1.last_name, e1.salary, e1.department_id 
FROM employees e1
JOIN employees e2 ON e1.salary < e2.salary AND e2.department_id = 70;

Using Subquery with a Comparison Operator:


SELECT first_name, last_name, salary, department_id 
FROM employees 
WHERE salary < (
    SELECT MIN(salary) 
    FROM employees 
    WHERE department_id = 70
);

Using NOT EXISTS and a Subquery:


SELECT first_name, last_name, salary, department_id 
FROM employees e1
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT 1
    FROM employees e2
