Write a query to return rows from the Album table where the album reached a peak position of 1 in the US Billboard 200 chart, and which had sales of at least 10 million, sorting the results in ascending order of Title.
Albums with sales of at least 10 million are certified as diamond by the RIAA.
Write another query in the same script which shows albums which reached number 1 in the chart, or which had sales of at least 10 million.
You should return more results than for the previous query.
Add another query to show gold-certified albums. The RIAA classifies gold-certified albums as those with sales of at least 0.5 million but less than 1 million.
The first results you should see if the list is sorted alphabetically by Title.
Modify this query to show gold-certified albums which reached number 1 in the chart.
The first few results you should see.
Add a query to show platinum-certified albums (those with sales of at least 1 million but less than 2 million) which had a peak chart position in the top 10.
The first few platinum-certified top 10 albums.
Add a query which shows multi-platinum-certified albums (those with sales of at least 2 million but less than 10 million) which charted outside the top 10.
Some big sales numbers, but not enough to break into the top 10.
Save the script as Certified Sales.sql and close it.
