        SQL As Understood By System.Data.SQLite</h1>
      <p>
        The SQLite library understands most of the standard SQL language. But it does omit
        some features while at the same time adding a few features of its own. This document
        attempts to describe precisely what parts of the SQL language SQLite does and does
        not support. A list of keywords is also provided. In all of the syntax diagrams
        that follow, literal text is shown in bold blue. Non-terminal symbols are shown
        in italic red. Operators that are part of the syntactic markup itself are shown
        in black roman. This document is just an overview of the SQL syntax implemented
        by SQLite.
