You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.
If you haven't already done so, run the SQL script in the above folder in SQL Server Management Studio to generate a database (not for commercial use or copying) called MAM.
Within SSMS (or within DAX Studio, if you're lucky enough to have it working on your computer) create a query to list out all of the towns in the database, in alphabetical order by name:
The first few towns that your query should list out.
Too easy? Write another query using the TOPN function which lists out the first 5 shopping centres in square metre area order:
The 5 largest shopping centres, in descending size order.
Optionally, combine your queries into a single file called Evaluation copy.txt, then close it down.
