Examine the description of the CUSTOMERS table:You need to display last names and credit limits...

The SQL query must find all customers with last names starting with A or B, regardless of case, and a credit limit below 1000:

B. WHERE (INITCAP(cust_last_name) LIKE ‘A%' OR INITCAP(cust_last_name) LIKE ‘B%') AND cust_credit_limit < 1000: The INITCAP function initializes the first letter to uppercase for comparison. However, it should be noted that using INITCAP is not necessary when using the LIKE operator with a wildcard % following a single character, because it will not correctly filter all last names that start with an upper or lower case A or B.

D. WHERE (UPPER(cust_last_name) LIKE 'A%’ OR UPPER(cust_last_name) LIKE ‘B%’) AND cust_credit_limit < 1000: This correctly filters last names beginning with A or B in any case and includes only those with a credit limit below 1000. The UPPER function is used to convert cust_last_name to uppercase before comparison.
