A database is an organized collection of data that is stored and managed electronically.
PostgreSQL (PSQL) is an advanced, open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) known for its strong performance, reliability, and extensibility.
Basic PSQL commands include creating databases, creating tables, inserting data, querying data, altering tables, filtering records with conditions, using 'LIKE' pattern matching, and performing aggregations.
Aggregation functions like COUNT, SUM, AVG, MAX, MIN, and ROUND are commonly used in PSQL to perform calculations on data.
