How To Create a New User and Grant Permissions in MySQL


Step (1.) How to Create a New User :-
we did all of the editing in MySQL as the root user, with full access to all of the databases. However, in the cases where more restrictions may be required, there are ways to create users with custom permissions.
Let’s start by making a new user within the MySQL shell:


CREATE USER 'newuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';


this point new user has no permissions to do anything with the databases. In fact, if new user even tries to login (with the password, password), they will not be able to reach the MySQL shell.
Therefore, the first thing to do is to provide the user with access to the information they will need.


GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'newuser'@'localhost';


The asterisks in this command refer to the database and table (respectively) that they can access—this specific command allows to the user to read, edit, execute and perform all tasks across all the databases and tables.
Once you have finalized the permissions that you want to set up for your new users, always be sure to reload all the privileges


FLUSH PRIVILEGES;


Step (2.) How To Grant Different User Permissions


ALL PRIVILEGES- as we saw previously, this would allow a MySQL user all access to a designated database (or if no database is selected, across the system)
CREATE- allows them to create new tables or databases
DROP- allows them to them to delete tables or databases
DELETE- allows them to delete rows from tables
INSERT- allows them to insert rows into tables
SELECT- allows them to use the Select command to read through databases
UPDATE- allow them to update table rows
GRANT OPTION- allows them to grant or remove other users' privileges
To provide a specific user with a permission, you can use this framework:


GRANT [type of permission] ON [database name].[table name] TO ‘[username]’@'localhost’;


Each time you update or change a permission be sure to use the Flush Privileges command.
If you need to revoke a permission, the structure is almost identical to granting it:


REVOKE [type of permission] ON [database name].[table name] FROM ‘[username]’@‘localhost’;

Just as you can delete databases with DROP, you can use DROP to delete a user altogether:


DROP USER ‘demo’@‘localhost’;

To test out your new user, log out by typing


quit

and log back in with this command in terminal:


mysql -u [username]-p

Java Loops II print each element of our series as a single line of space-separated values.

We use the integers  ,  , and   to create the following series: You are given   queries in the form of  ,  , and  . For each query, print the series corresponding to the given  ,  , and   values as a single line of   space-separated integers. Input Format The first line contains an integer,  , denoting the number of queries.  Each line   of the   subsequent lines contains three space-separated integers describing the respective  ,  , and   values for that query. Constraints Output Format For each query, print the corresponding series on a new line. Each series must be printed in order as a single line of   space-separated integers. Sample Input 2 0 2 10 5 3 5 Sample Output 2 6 14 30 62 126 254 510 1022 2046 8 14 26 50 98 Explanation We have two queries: We use  ,  , and   to produce some series  : ... and so on. Once we hit  , we print the first ten terms as a single line of space-separate

Java Currency Formatter Solution

Given a  double-precision  number,  , denoting an amount of money, use the  NumberFormat  class'  getCurrencyInstance  method to convert   into the US, Indian, Chinese, and French currency formats. Then print the formatted values as follows: US: formattedPayment India: formattedPayment China: formattedPayment France: formattedPayment where   is   formatted according to the appropriate  Locale 's currency. Note:  India does not have a built-in Locale, so you must  construct one  where the language is  en  (i.e., English). Input Format A single double-precision number denoting  . Constraints Output Format On the first line, print  US: u  where   is   formatted for US currency.  On the second line, print  India: i  where   is   formatted for Indian currency.  On the third line, print  China: c  where   is   formatted for Chinese currency.  On the fourth line, print  France: f , where   is   formatted for French currency.

Java Substring Comparisons

We define the following terms: Lexicographical Order , also known as  alphabetic  or  dictionary  order, orders characters as follows:  For example,  ball < cat ,  dog < dorm ,  Happy < happy ,  Zoo < ball . A  substring  of a string is a contiguous block of characters in the string. For example, the substrings of  abc  are  a ,  b ,  c ,  ab ,  bc , and  abc . Given a string,  , and an integer,  , complete the function so that it finds the lexicographically  smallest  and  largest substrings of length  . Input Format The first line contains a string denoting  . The second line contains an integer denoting  . Constraints  consists of English alphabetic letters only (i.e.,  [a-zA-Z] ). Output Format Return the respective lexicographically smallest and largest substrings as a single newline-separated string. Sample Input 0 welcometojava 3 Sample Output 0 ava wel Explanation 0 S
