5 min readTo use a subquery inside an interval function in Teradata, you can nest the subquery within the INTERVAL keyword. This allows you to perform calculations on the result set of the subquery using the designated interval unit (such as DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, etc.).For example, you can write a query like this:SELECT column1 FROM table1 WHERE column2 < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL (SELECT AVG(column3) FROM table2) DAY;In this query, the subquery calculates the average value of column3 from table2.

4 min readTo bind to all the number keys in Tkinter, you can use the bind_all method of the root window. This method allows you to bind an event to all widgets in the application, including the number keys.You can use a lambda function to handle the event and perform the desired action when a number key is pressed. Here is an example code snippet that shows how to bind to all the number keys in Tkinter: import tkinter as tk root = tk.Tk() def on_key_press(event): print(f"Number key {event.
