- Keyframe 5y agoSyntax diagram, just like ye olde Pascal syntax poster!
- cryptonector 5y agoThey don't look very accessible to me, but yes, they are pretty.
- tpetry 5y agoMany years ago when learning SQL i was looking at these state diagrams despite using another database. So yes, they should be added! They may not be usefull for anyone SQL who is able to read the Postgresql grammar definition but for someone learning it it‘s helping very much.
- ako 5y agoOracle has been using these in their reference guides for at least 30 years, e.g.: https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/21/sqlrf/CREATE-TABLE.html#GUID-F9CE0CC3-13AE-4744-A43C-EAC7A71AAAB6 https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/2... Personally i'm more helped by good examples than these syntax diagrams.
