Q. What is a query?
A. command sentences using to request for extraction of information with purpose
Q. What are query languages, and can you name examples of query languages?
A. computer language which excute command for request imformation to DB. I don’t know if I can call it a “language”, but SQL.

Q. Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
A. I would like to systematically retrieve data that I have written in logseq.
actually, I don’t know the data structure of logseq, so I’m perplexed how to write query.
for example, I don’t know the difference between the three types of search strings.
“green” : enclosed in double quotation marks
green : with #.
[[green]] : enclosed in [[]].
What is the difference when searching?
and another, about the date used in query, is the date of the journal or the page was created? Where can I find the timestamp of the block? Can we see the ID and properties of the block?
as such, there’s many things I want to know. I’m looking forward resolving these questions so that I could extract systematic data from my journal.
A query is a request for information from an information system.
A query language is a computer language for formulating queries.
I have worked primarily with SQL.
I want to be able to use queries to discover relationships in the data so that new ideas can emerge.
A query helps me express my search terms in a way that the database is understanding.
* What are query languages, and can you name examples of query languages?
Query languages, such as Datalog, are a unified set of commands that enable database-independent search.
* What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past?
I haven’t worked with any Query language before
* Why do *__you__* want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
I want to apply Queries to the following:
Building a review system for my weekly Reviews
Something similar to the “on this day” feature in DayOne, which displays all entries from this day made in former years.
I would like to make goal planning possible in Logseq. As I am using Things for execution tasks, I want to use the task management system.
Finally, I want to build several small queries that I can insert via Keyboard shortcut (Keyboard Maestro) to aid me with little snippets of oversight, either in the right sidebar or as a removable object in current projects.
Suppose you need to find a particular piece of information from a complicated database with lots of data. A query is essentially a question you ask the database to try to narrow down or pinpoint that piece of information that you want.
What are query languages, and can you name examples of query languages?
A query language is any programming language that makes use of queries (asking questions about the database and returning the relevant pieces of information) to retrieve data from a database. Perhaps the most well-known is SQL where QL stands for ‘query language’.
What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past?
A tiny bit of SQL, Google search if you count that, and you can use queries in data analytics programs such as R.
Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
I want to learn how I should structure my notes in an outliner so that they are easily searchable and I can later start incorporating more powerful tools. Ultimately, I want to create a tool that is useful both for writing down my thoughts in a diary-like fashion, and perhaps more importantly, that I can use in academia to help me to learn new concepts and improve my research.
Thanks a lot for organizing this learning sprint. I have started using Logseq a couple of months ago and I came to the point that I find it difficult to retrieve information in a fast and frictionless way.
What is a query?
Query is a form of requesting information from a database.
What are query languages, and can you name examples of query languages?
Query languages allow us to communicate our requests to our database in a very specific and precise way. Search engines typically use simple Boolean operations to enable filtering of the results so that they match more closely our request.
What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past?
My experience is limited to search engines.
Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
After using Logseq for a few months, I came to a point where I find difficult to retrieve my data in a frictionless way. Despite having improved my productivity, I feel that I am not stuck and learning strategies on how to structure my database and retrieve information will take my productivity to another level. I find it amazing that Logseq provides such a powerful community and support to users in a way that everyone helps each other and share ideas in a very open way. Thanks a lot, @Ramses for guiding us through this important processes of structuring and retrieving data.
A description of a search to be performed for specific data.
What are query languages, and can you name examples of query languages?
Querly languages are the formal schemas (/ languages) for expressing queries. Which is a bit circular… so to expand, a formal language is one that can be parsed reliably by a computer to express a semantics intended by an author (and query is defined above).
What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past?
SQL (esp. postgres-flavored), Mongo, GrahQL (maybe not really a QL), datalog

Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
I use Logseq as a kind of technical users manual. I’m a consultant in Healthcare IT and I want to be able to reference past issues & their resolutions when I’m troubleshooting for a client. I’d like to use queries to become better at searching for and organizing information.
A query is simply a search for some data by means of a filtered search. Keywords and operators enhance the scope and focus of the search, and serve as the filter’s “instructions”.
What are query languages, and can you name examples of query languages?
Query languages are a set of defined rules, or syntax, by which a user can input a query to retrieve the desired data. SQL, NoSQL, GraphQL are some popular services used to query databases. Workflows like Obsidian and Notion have their own query systems as well.
What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past?
I’ve worked with SQL and GraphQL, as well as the searches in Notion, Obsidian, and some other services.
Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
I hope to actively curate my projects and data, as well as maintain control over my notes and data. With a well-polished system (even something simple as a #re-iterate tag), I can keep track of notes to be further developed for my study or application.
I’m currently unfamiliar with the Logseq query syntax; this is an opportunity to see how the query works, as well as understand (and be aware of) all the properties the Logseq search uses, and thereby utilize them.
A query is a question with the expectation of getting an answer.

What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past?
SQL
Datalog
Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
Because I want to better structure my notes in order to resurface the information when I need it. I dislike when I know I have saved a piece of knowledge but I am unable to find it again.
Because I want a better tool than the Logseq search bar and I am not efficient enough with advanced queries. I believe I may be underutilizing the simple queries
Because I love Logseq and the more I use it, the more amazing it becomes
It’s an interrogation technique to gather information from my database
What are query languages
SQL is one ot them and all databases have their query langages
What are queries langages you work with before
none
Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries
I invested a huge amount of time in. building my database. I evolved with it. I’ve gone from Roam to Logseq. I was learning as my database grew more and more. Mastering queries is a must for me, to benefit from all the work I did.

Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
I love LogSeq, and I think I can take advantage of its utilities using this tool. Besides, I need to understand queries to organize my knowledge system.
A query is a “request for information” from an interactive system, which in this case is assumed to be digital. but it doesn’t have to be.

Query languages are syntaxes we communicate to a computer or system to request information
What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past?
sql, google, xpath
Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries?
because being more fluent in the tools i use helps me use them more as tools and less as hobbies. If I can think, when using logseq, in terms of queries, fluently, then i can make more sense of the data i’m putting in to this system, whether that is contextual to-dos, reusable family chore lists, OKR planning, or other things i haven’t even thought of yet. I’m a kinetic/interactive learner and need objective-based learning, so this is a good reason to dive in.
I have never used logseq query before but I think this should be {{query (and [[How to Take Smart Notes]] (or [[highlights]] [[notes]])) }}
if you want to search for highlights or notes from How to Take Smart Notes

What are some query languages you’ve worked with in the past? mostly SQL, GraphQL, Neo4j, MongoDB, Postgres, Cassandra
Why do you want to learn how to write Logseq queries? knowing how to get information out of a system lets you know how to store information better so that you can retrieve it more easily in the future than if you had not learned anything about how the system works.
I’ve edited the lesson.
