Challenge: Create a view
(upbeat music) - [Instructor] Views are an important object used in the management of your database, but they're really just queries that are saved to the system. If you can write a query, then it's a fairly straightforward process to convert it into a view. So any exercises that test your ability to create a view is really a query exercise in disguise with one added step. With that said, I do want to challenge you to create a couple of useful views for the Two Trees database that'll make exploring the data that it contains a little bit easier. The first one should be an aggregate view that displays the number of orders placed by each company. The second view needs to display a calculation that will multiply the quantity of a product ordered by its price for each order line. This challenge should take about 10 minutes or less to complete. In the next movie, I'll show you the steps that I take to create both of these views in the database. Good luck.
