To update a partial value in PostgreSQL, you can use a combination of the UPDATE statement and a WHERE clause to specify the conditions under which the partial value should be updated. Here's an example:


Suppose you have a table called "employees" with columns "id", "name", and "salary". If you want to update the salary of an employee with a specific id, you can do so with the following SQL query:

1
2
3
UPDATE employees 
SET salary = salary + 1000 
WHERE id = 123;


In this example, the salary of the employee with id 123 will be updated to add 1000 to the existing salary. You can customize the query to update the partial value as desired based on your specific requirements.
