Sequence and Serial data types: Postgresql Full Course | PSQL | Screencasts | #psql #postgresql

The best way to learn the concept is to watch the video, use the links below and take notes and then solve the homework added in the description. You can find a solution on teachmedatabase.com once the video has been live for a week. But also comment your solutions here.

Homework:
Create a sequence called auction_logs which starts from 100 and has an increment of 50. Use it to log auction activity on a hypothetical Laptop on ebay (hint: insert in to ebay_auction table). Alter the sequence to increment by 60. At the end drop the sequence (table) and make sure it is not available in pg_sequences table.
