FIFA World Cup 2022 SQL Project

Aims and Objectives

This project is the product of my work in the programming with data module of my MSc in Data Science. We were tasked with requirements for a database to store data about teams, players and other entities from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. First I began with creating an Entity Relationship Diagram to represent the database that I was going to build. Using MySQL I then had to create a database, create the tables, and populate those tables and then create SQL queries to answer questions about the data, and implement this also using python.
