In SQL Server, Common Table Expressions (CTEs) are often used for readability and simplifying complex queries. While CTEs are most commonly used when running a SELECT query, we can also use CTEs to perform updates with the UPDATE statement. This can be useful when we need to reference the same set of data multiple times or want to update records conditionally.

How to Output Query Results in NDJSON Format in the DuckDB CLI
DuckDB’s CLI allows you to output query results in different formats, including NDJSON (Newline Delimited JSON).
NDJSON is similar to JSON, except that with NDJSON, each line contains its own self-contained JSON document.
This article shows you how to check your current output mode, and then change it to NDJSON.
Concatenating Strings in DuckDB
String concatenation is a common operation when running database queries. It simply involves joining two strings together, end to end. DuckDB provides multiple methods for combining strings, each with its own use cases and advantages.
