SQL

SQL, or Simple Query Language allows a limited type of expressions to be used within query. Apart from basic arithmetic, boolean and bitwise operators, many built-in functions can be used to form an expression.

Expressions should be used with caution, especially if resource-consuming functions are used.

More generally, SQL expression is defined as any type of SQL query that is evaluated (to a column, another query results etc) before the overall query is performed.
