The ANY Operator is used in SQL to compare values with single columns and the range of values. The statement returns to be “TRUE” if any of the values are true in the range. The ANY Operator returns boolean values as its result.
- Syntax of ANY Operator –
SELECT column1,column2,column3,...,columnN FROM table_name
WHERE column1,column2
OPERATOR ANY
(SELECT column1,column2,column3,...,columnN
FROM table_name
WHERE condition );
