Lesson 14 — HAVING
HAVING: filter groups
WHERE filters rows before grouping. HAVING filters groups after grouping, so it can use aggregates. "Customers with more than 2 orders" needs HAVING, because the count only exists after GROUP BY.
SELECT customer, COUNT(*) FROM orders
GROUP BY customer
HAVING COUNT(*) > 2
Why it matters: "which products sold over 100 units?", "which pages have more than 10 errors?" — every threshold on a group is a HAVING.

Task
Add HAVING so only customers with at least 2 orders are shown. Expected: Ann 3, Cy 2.
