It's a wildcard
Example: I'm looking for the value "A1" in a column that has values
A1-1, A1-2, A1-3
select count(*) from table where column like '%A1%'
will give me a count of three

Hello list,
I am trying to decipher some code written by someone else. In it there
is a query:
$query = "select description from $prodtable where description like '%'
or type like '%' group by description";
I've seen it used as mathematical modulos, but not sure how it's used
here.
Thx
