Suppose you discover the temperature readings are
all off by 2 degrees after November 28. You can correct the
data as follows:
</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>UPDATE weather
SET temp_hi = temp_hi - 2, temp_lo = temp_lo - 2
WHERE date > '1994-11-28';</PRE
><P>
</P
><P
> Look at the new state of the data:
</P><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>SELECT * FROM weather;
city | temp_lo | temp_hi | prcp | date
---------------+---------+---------+------+------------
San Francisco | 46 | 50 | 0.25 | 1994-11-27
San Francisco | 41 | 55 | 0 | 1994-11-29
