MySQL Cookbook - Downloads

The techniques and examples in MySQL Cookbook are based on two software distributions that contain scripts, sample data, and support files. Both distributions are available as a tar file or a ZIP file.

• The recipes distribution is the main distribution. It contains more than 700 files, but most of them are quite small, so the overall size of the distribution is modest.

Most of the baseball-related examples in the recipes distribution are based on the database available from The Baseball Archive. Visit The Baseball Archive for more information. Note: The examples in the book are based on version 4.5 of the baseball database. The current version of the database is 5.0, which uses table structures that differ from the tables in version 4.5.

The information in the mcb-kjv distribution is derived from the King James Version available from the Unbound Bible project at Biola University. Visit the Unbound Bible site for more information.
