What type of language is SQL?

  1. C++

  2. JavaScript

  3. HTML

  4. Database query language

The correct answer is: Database query language

SQL, or Structured Query Language, is a specialized language designed for managing and querying databases. It is specifically used for retrieving and manipulating data stored in a relational database management system. C++, JavaScript, and HTML are all general-purpose programming languages and are not specifically designed for working with databases. Therefore, they are incorrect options. D is the only correct answer as it accurately identifies SQL as a database query language.
