Hi Constantin,
This is a syntax problem, there are two kinds of constraints (table and
column constraints)
and both of them must be defined inside ( ) not outside:
create table emppay (
name text not null check (name <> ''), --column
constraint definition
wage float4 default 10.00,
constraint empcon check (wage > 5.30 and wage <= 30.00) --table
constraint definition
);
