Create Table syntax error in sql Jupyter notebook - sql

Question

I tried to create a table in sql. But I keep getting a syntax error. I tried the solutions from other answers on this website. But, I keep getting the syntax error. This is the code that I tried.
CREATE TABLE STUDENT(
LastName VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
FirstName VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
StudentID int NOT NULL UNIQUE,
Major ARCHAR(20),
PRIMARY KEY (StudentID)
);
This is the error that I get.
File "<ipython-input-12-dff73a7a002a>", line 1
CREATE TABLE STUDENT(
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I am running this on Jupyter notebook. Could anyone help me know where I am going wrong?

Answer 1

There's a small typo in your CREATE statement as below. You are missing V
Major ARCHAR(20),
should be
Major VARCHAR(20),

Answer 2

I guess you try to run SQL-code with python kernel. But it isn't the way that would work.
If you really want to execute SQL with Jupyter you should look at ipython-sql extension: https://github.com/catherinedevlin/ipython-sql
So at first install extension with pip install ipython-sql.
Then in a notebook load it with %load_ext sql.
And in the end, try your code, preliminarily it with %%sql-magic. I.e.:
%%sql sqlite://
CREATE TABLE STUDENT(
LastName VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
FirstName VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
StudentID int NOT NULL UNIQUE,
Major ARCHAR(20),
PRIMARY KEY (StudentID)
);
If my answer is off topic, just give me more information about what you do.
