4.13) How do I perform regular expression searches and case-insensitive

regular expression searches? How do I use an index for case-insensitive
searches?
The ~ operator does regular expression matching, and ~* does
case-insensitive regular expression matching. The case-insensitive
variant of LIKE is called ILIKE in PostgreSQL 7.1 and later.
Case-insensitive equality comparisons are normally expressed as:
SELECT *
FROM tab
WHERE lower(col) = 'abc'
This will not use an standard index. However, if you create a
functional index, it will be used:
CREATE INDEX tabindex on tab (lower(col));
4.14) In a query, how do I detect if a field is NULL?
You test the column with IS NULLIS NOT NULL.
