MariaDB FROM子句用于从表中获取数据。它也被用来连接表，这将在后面章节中学习。

语法：

SELECT columns_names FROM table_name;

示例1：

假设要从"students"表中检索所有学生信息。参考以下语句中，From语句的用法 –

SELECT * FROM students;

执行上面查询语句，得到以下结果 –

MariaDB [testdb]> SELECT * FROM students;
+------------+--------------+-----------------+----------------+
| student_id | student_name | student_address | admission_date |
+------------+--------------+-----------------+----------------+
|          1 | Maxsu        | Haikou          | 2017-01-07     |
|          3 | JMaster      | Beijing         | 2016-05-07     |
|          4 | Mahesh       | Guangzhou       | 2016-06-07     |
|          5 | Kobe         | Shanghai        | 2016-02-07     |
|          6 | Blaba        | Shengzhen       | 2016-08-07     |
|          7 | Maxsu        | Sanya           | 2017-08-08     |
|          8 | Maxsu        | Haikou          | 2015-11-17     |
+------------+--------------+-----------------+----------------+
7 rows in set (0.00 sec)

示例2：

从students表中选择一个特定的列。例如，要选择student_id和student_name列，如下查询语句 –

SELECT student_id,student_name FROM students;

执行上面查询语句，得到以下结果 –

MariaDB [testdb]> SELECT student_id,student_name FROM students;
+------------+--------------+
| student_id | student_name |
+------------+--------------+
|          1 | Maxsu        |
|          3 | JMaster      |
|          4 | Mahesh       |
|          5 | Kobe         |
|          6 | Blaba        |
|          7 | Maxsu        |
|          8 | Maxsu        |
+------------+--------------+
