This book uses sampdb as the sample database name, but you may need to use a different name as you work through the material. For example, someone else on your system already may be using the name sampdb for their own database, or your MySQL administrator may assign you a different database name. In either case, substitute the actual name of your database for sampdb whenever you see the latter in examples.
Table names can be used exactly as shown in the examples, even if multiple users on your system have their own sample databases. In MySQL, it doesn't matter if other people use the same table names, as long as each of you uses your own database. MySQL will keep the tables straight and prevent you from interfering with each other.
Obtaining the Sample Database Distribution
This tutorial refers at certain points to files from the "sample database distribution" (also known as the sampdb distribution, after the name of the sampdb database). These files contain queries and data that will help you set up the sample database. See Appendix A, "Obtaining and Installing Software," for instructions on getting the distribution. When you unpack it, it will create a directory named sampdb containing the files you'll need. I recommend that you change location into that directory whenever you're working through examples pertaining to the sample database.
