oracle between and

The "between" operator in Oracle is used to specify a range of values for a column in a table. It is used in conjunction with the "and" operator to specify the upper and lower bounds of the range.

For example, the following query retrieves all rows from the "employees" table where the salary column is between $50,000 and $80,000:

SELECT * FROM employees
WHERE salary BETWEEN 50000 AND 80000;

The "between" operator is inclusive, meaning that values equal to the upper and lower bounds are included in the result set.

Note that the "between" operator can also be used with date and time values, as well as with character strings that can be sorted in a meaningful way.
