How to be more structured in formulating queries for SQL interviews?

When I work on sql queries I usually start with a base query and edit as I go depending on the requirements, sometimes running the query and debugging. However, after being in a sql interview it seems like this approach doesn’t work the best for interviews as I frequently go down the wrong path before correcting myself, and especially not in situations where I can’t actually run intermediate queries.

What’s a good approach for working out a sql query in a structured way?

[Question] Books on more philosophical aspect of Statistics?

Hello, I recently got interested in statistics and wanted to read some books that would give me a good introduction to it.

I'm not looking for a book that goes more technical and teaches me about the different techniques, but I was hoping to find some book that talks about maybe what exactly is valid data, etc... more like meta-statistics? or more philosophical statistics?

I hope my question makes sense...

Thanks

"There are plenty of reasons why people who DO have the knowledge would not admit to it. By asking, you're asking for more than what you think you're asking.

You're asking people to take responsibility. You're questioning people's confidence in their abilities. You're also unnecessarily walling other people out. I often answer questions related to languages or libraries I have never used, because the answers are (in a programmer kind of way) common sense."

Neuron Zettelkasten

An interesting zettelkasten approach that strives to be editor-agnostic, plain-text, and adaptible.

Its main draw seems to be the automatic creation of a zettel heteronomy, html publication, and extensive plugin possibilities.
