21. Aggregate functions ignore NULL values. The first query counts the Not Null 2
values in the column NAME, hence the output is 6.
But the second query counts all the records present in the table STUDENT
which gives the output as 9. Hence, this implies that there are 9 rows in the
table and the NAME column contains the names of only 6 students. 9-6=3, i.e.,
3 names have been left blank. This means that there are 3 null values in the
column NAME.
2 marks for correct explanation
22. Some data and information stored on computer disks is personal and needs to 2

3. Browse privately wherever possible.
4. Be careful while posting on the internet.
