example, with the above definitions and assuming additional appropriate
columns, writing
-INSERT INTO people (name, address) VALUE ('A', 'foo');
-INSERT INTO people (name, address) VALUE ('B', 'bar');
+INSERT INTO people (name, address) VALUES ('A', 'foo');
+INSERT INTO people (name, address) VALUES ('B', 'bar');
would generate values for the id column starting at 1
and result in the following table data:
Alternatively, the keyword DEFAULT can be specified in
place of a value to explicitly request the sequence-generated value, like
-INSERT INTO people (id, name, address) VALUE (DEFAULT, 'C', 'baz');
+INSERT INTO people (id, name, address) VALUES (DEFAULT, 'C', 'baz');
Similarly, the keyword DEFAULT can be used in
UPDATE commands.
