Single SQL quotes are used to indicate the beginning and end of a string in SQL. Double quotes generally aren't used in SQL, but that can vary from database to database. Stick to using single quotes.You can use single quotes for a column alias — where you want the column name you reference in your application code to be something other than what the column is actually called in the database.
