Wait, SHOW DATABASE SIZE? Is that even a valid query?

Haha, option D is just wishful thinking. Gotta love those candidates who try to guess the answer.

SHOW DATABASE SIZE? Really? That's not even a valid PostgreSQL command.

I like how option B gives the database name and size in a single query. Much easier than having to do the conversion manually.

I don't recall seeing SHOW DATABASE SIZE in our practice, so I doubt it's the right choice.

I feel like A could be close, but it doesn't format the size in a meaningful way like B does.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about pg_database_size being used in similar questions.

Okay, let me see here. I think option A might be the simplest approach, just getting the raw database size values. But B does sound like it would be more useful in the real world. I'll have to weigh the pros and cons.

Easy peasy! Option B is definitely the correct answer. It gives you the database names and sizes in a nice, human-readable format. Can't go wrong with that.

Option B looks good, it uses the pg_size_pretty function to display the database size in a more readable format.

I think the answer might be B because it uses pg_size_pretty, which makes the size more readable.

A is close, but it doesn't pretty-print the size.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know we need to get the database names and sizes, but I'm not sure which function to use. I'll have to think this through carefully.
