CONCAT in MySQL

 

Here I will show you how to do string concatenation in MySQL select statement.

Assume you have a table like below

Table: employee (before concatenation)
idfirstname
lastname
1 John Doe

 

and you want your query to return like this:

Table: employee (after concatenation)
idfullname
1 John Doe

 

Its easy, the query is like this:

SELECT id, CONCAT(firstname, ' ', lastname) AS fullname FROM employee

If you want it to be return like for example: Firstname: John, Lastname: Doe

Try this: SELECT id, CONCAT('Firstname: ', firstname, ', Lastname: ', lastname) AS fullname FROM employee
