2. Show who won the 1962 prize for literature.

SELECT winner
FROM nobel
WHERE yr = 1962 AND subject = 'Literature'

3. Show the year and subject that won 'Albert Einstein' his prize.

SELECT yr, subject 
FROM nobel
WHERE winner = 'Albert Einstein'

4. Give the name of the 'peace' winners since the year 2000, including 2000.

SELECT winner
FROM nobel
WHERE subject = 'Peace' AND yr >= 2000

5. Show all details (yr, subject, winner) of the literature prize winners for 1980 to 1989 inclusive.

SELECT yr, subject, winner

WHERE winner LIKE 'John%'

8. Show the year, subject, and name of physics winners for 1980 together with the chemistry winners for 1984.

SELECT yr, subject, winner
FROM nobel
WHERE (yr = 1980 AND subject = 'Physics') OR (yr = 1984 AND subject = 'Chemistry')

9. Show the year, subject, and name of winners for 1980 excluding chemistry and medicine

SELECT yr, subject, winner
FROM nobel
WHERE yr = 1980 AND subject NOT IN ('Chemistry', 'Medicine')

SELECT winner, yr, subject
FROM nobel
WHERE winner LIKE 'Sir%' 
ORDER BY yr DESC, winner ASC

14. The expression subject IN ('chemistry','physics') can be used as a value - it will be 0 or 1.
    Show the 1984 winners and subject ordered by subject and winner name; but list chemistry and physics last.

SELECT winner, subject
  FROM nobel
 WHERE yr=1984
 ORDER BY 
 CASE WHEN subject IN ('physics','chemistry') THEN 1 ELSE 0 END,
