Hello and
welcome everyone. In the previous article, we have learned about Numeric Data
type. Now in this article, we will learn String Data type. Let’s go.

Now let see
in details one by one:
CHAR
()
CHAR
data type is a fixed length string (in this contain is letters, numbers and
special characters), where size is the number of characters to store in the database.
A char data type length is from 0 to 255. For example, is CHAR (10).
VARCHAR
()
VARCHAR
data type is a variable length string (in this contain is letters, numbers, and
special characters). When creating a VARCHAR field you must define a length. A
VARCHAR data type length is from 0 to 255. For example, is VARCHAR (255).
BINARY
()
The
BINARY data type is equal to CHAR () data type, but it stores binary byte
strings in the database. Binary data type contains binary strings. Its length
is from 0 to 255.
VARBINARY
()
VARBINARY
data type is equal to VARCHAR () data type, but it stores binary byte strings
in the database. VARBINARY data type contains binary strings. Its length is
from 0 to 255.
BLOB
(Binary Large Objects) ()
Binary
Large Object (BLOB) contains a variable amount of data and its maximum length
of 65535 characters. Binary Large Object used to store a large amount of binary
data like images or other types of files and the stored data are case sensitive
on BLOBs. You do not need to specify a length with BLOBs.
TEXT
()
TEXT
data type holds a large amount of string data and a string with a maximum
length of 65535 characters. TEXT stored size is String length + 2 bytes. The
stored data are not case sensitive on TEXT. You do not need to specify a length
with TEXT.
TINYBLOB
()
A
TINYBLOB data type is a column with a maximum length of 255 characters. You do
not need to specify a length with TINYBLOB.
TINYTEXT
()
A
TINYTEXT data type holds a string with a maximum length of 255 characters. You
do not need to specify a length with TINYTEXT.
MEDIUMBLOB
()
A
MEDIUMBLOB data type is a column with a maximum length of 16777215 characters.
You do not need to specify a length with MEDIUMBLOB.
MEDIUMTEXT
()
A
MEDIUMTEXT data type holds a string with a maximum length of 16777215
characters. You do not need to specify a length with MEDIUMTEXT.
LONGBLOB
()
A
LONGBLOB data type is a column with a maximum length of 4294967295 characters.
You do not need to specify a length with LONGBLOB.
LONGTEXT
()
A
LONGTEXT data type holds a string with a maximum length of 4294967295
characters. You do not need to specify a length with LONGTEXT.
ENUM
()
ENUM
data type is an enumeration, which is that each column can have one of several
possible values (with the maximum to be 65535 values). You are creating a list
of items from which the values must be selected when defining an ENUM ().
SET
()
The
SET data type is equal to ENUM () data type, but SET can have up to 64 list
items and can store more than one choice at the time of table creation. SET
data type 1, 2, 3, 4 or 8 bytes, depending on the number of set 64 members
maximum.
NOTES:
In
MySQL have many of the data types have equal names such as DEC and DECIMAL, INT
and INTEGER, etc.
If
the tables have multiple TIMESTAMP columns, then the first one will be updated
when you performed INSET or UPDATE statement.
