Please advise on this SQL code - thank you!

Hi all

I've tried this challenge a quite few times, with various adjustments to my code - still no luck.

Please could you advise me as to what I need to consider changing, and how I might modify it to make a successful SQL statement?

Many Thanks!

Hi Adrian Brenton,

Here is the sql code:

select count(*) as shipped_today from orders where ordered_on = DATE('now') and status = 'shipped' ;

If you any doubts, please let me know.

Hope this helps!

select count(*) as shipped_today from orders where status="shipped" and ordered_on=DATE();

this should help. I use the DATE() function to get the current date.
