3,806 PointsThank you! What about this challenge? In an ecommerce database there's an orders table with the columns id, product_id, user_id, address_id, ordered_on, status and cost.
Count the total number of orders that were ordered yesterday and have the status of 'shipped'. Alias it to ordered_yesterday_and_shipped.
I'm posting this and it's not working: select count(*) as ordered_yesterday_and_shipped from orders where status="shipped" and ordered_on=date("now"; "-1 day");
