The goal of SQuizL is to guess the correct solution in 6 tries or less. The solution consists of one or more SQL statements predetermined by the quiz author. While the code should execute without error, the effect of the code itself is not important. The syntax is the focus here.

Key Guidelines

• There may be many valid statements, there is only one statement that is the answer to the quiz.
• Quizzes may contain 0, 1 or 2 clues.
• Statements must be separated by a semi-colon. However there does not need to be a semi-colon at the end of the last (or only) statement.
