The Brief

Dr. Amara OkaforChief Quality Officerslack-dm

Good morning. I just started this week and I'm still getting oriented to our data systems. Can you pull the first 10 rows from the patient table so I can see what fields we're working with? I need to understand the shape of our data before I can benchmark anything.

Hints (3)

Each hint you reveal reduces the XP you can earn. Try the query first.

Hint 1

Single-table preview from the patient dimension. You want every column but only a small sample of rows.

Hint 2

Star expansion in the SELECT list, plus a row cap at the end of the query.

Hint 3

No WHERE, no ORDER BY — Dr. Okafor is reading the shape of the data, not asking a question of it. Cap at the sample size she requested in the briefing.
