Hi,

Suppose I want to select the rows from a table, say Emp, as below :

Select * from Emp 
where (attr1 = val11 and attr2 = val12 and attr3 = val13) or (attr1 = val14and 
attr2 = val15 and attr3 = val16);

Now suppose I got (x1, x2, x3) and (y1, y2, y3). Then I need to rewrite my 
query as :

Select * from Emp 
where (attr1 = val11 and attr2 = val12 and attr3 = val13) or (attr1 = val14 and 
attr2 = val15 and attr3 = val16) or
 (attr1 = x1 and attr2 = x2 and attr3 = x3) or (attr1 = y1 and attr2 = y2 and 
attr3 = y3);

So for each new set I need to add one more `or` conditions. It seems wired. 

Any better way to get it done ?

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, 
if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not 
smart enough to debug it.
