I thought UPDATE was for modifying existing records, not adding new ones!

Wait, can you really use UNION like that? Seems off.

I vaguely recall that "UNION" is used for combining results from multiple queries, not for adding new records directly.

I’m pretty certain that "UPDATE" commands are for modifying existing records, not appending new ones.

I think "INSERT INTO my_table VALUES" sounds right, but I feel like I might have seen a different syntax in some practice questions.

I remember practicing SQL commands for appending data, but I'm not sure if "INSERT INTO" is the only way to do it.

The INSERT INTO command looks like the right approach here. I'll double-check the syntax, but I think that's the way to go.

I'm a bit confused by the different options here. I'll need to review my SQL syntax to make sure I understand the differences between these commands.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'll need to think through the different SQL commands and how they work with Delta tables.

Okay, let's see. The alert message indicates the virus has been detected, so the Alert log type is definitely one I should check.

B and C look like they might be attempts to be clever, but they're not valid SQL. Sticking to the classic INSERT INTO is the way to go.

Haha, D and E are definitely not the right answers. Updating the entire table with a single record? What is this, SQL magic?

The correct answer is A) INSERT INTO my_table VALUES ('a1', 6, 9.4). It's a straightforward INSERT statement to append a new record to the existing Delta table.
