- The key word retrieves data from the database, which tells us
SELECT
is the correct statement we need to use. - The challenge outlines that we only want to select the first and last name from the rows, so for the select fields we want to specify only
first_name
andlast_name
delimiter by a comma. - We're of course retrieve data
FROM
theusers
table, and we want to specific that we only want dataWHERE
theusername
matches 'wig_lady
'. Therefore, our query will finish to become:
SELECT `first_name`, `last_name` FROM `users` WHERE `username` = 'wig_lady';
