Interfacing Applications to MySQL Databases - module S156
Structured Query Language is, as its name implies, a programming language. Application programs send commands in SQL to the relational database and also provide the application's user interface. In other words, they provide the glue between the application user and the database. Such programs can be written in a variety of languages including C, PHP, Java and Perl.
