I quite enjoyed the MySQL week as it felt like I was on familiar ground for a change. I had a job a few years ago that needed me to do data mining on the company database to find product use trend analysis and stuff.
And guess which language I had to query in. Yup, SQL! I remember having the entire (head high) back wall of my cubicle wallpapered with the diagrams of the relational tables and digging out primary keys and foreign keys while trying to marry together some pretty weird data combinations. It was a mix of treasure hunt and brain bender puzzle.
I've completely forgotten the language now but it was nice to be reminded, rather than taught fresh, for once this semester! :o)
