IS NULL Condition

The IS NULL condition is satisfied if the column contains a NULL value. If you use the IS NOT NULL operator, the condition is satisfied when the column contains a value that is not NULL. This example shows an IS NULL condition:

WHERE paid_date IS NULL

Conditions that use the IS NULL operator are exceptions to the usual rule that SQL expressions in which an operator has a NULL operand return FALSE.
