NULL qualities are generally denoted as blank. If any value is not able to insert to a column of a table then SQL automatically assign a NULL esteems to that column if the column is not a Not Null segments or Primary Key. The IS NULL condition is used to select records with NULL esteems in a segment. And IS NOT NULL condition is used to select records which does not have any NULL values in any columns and can be used in Insert, Delete, Select and Update statement.

The syntax for Not NULL operator is as follows.
