Actual exam question for Databricks's Databricks-Certified-Data-Analyst-Associate exam
Question #: 85
Topic #: 1
A data analyst is working with a nested array column products in table transactions. The analyst wants to return the first item in the array for each row.
The data analyst is using the following incomplete command:
SELECT
transaction_id,
_____ AS first_product
FROM transactions;
Which line of code should the data analyst use to fill in the blank so that it successfully completes the task?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

The correct answer is C because Databricks SQL supports bracket notation for arrays, and array indexing starts at 0. Therefore, the first element of the products array is accessed with products[0]. Options A and B use dot notation, which is not the correct syntax for array indexing. Option D returns the second element, not the first.
Official documentation extract used: Databricks states that the bracket operator returns an array element by index and that "the first element of an ARRAY is at index 0."
