How do I quickly evaluate a text string in SQL?
------------------------------------MySQL-----------------------------------------------------------
select
title as Adtitle,
#--count the number of words in the title
length(title) - length(replace(title, ' ', '')) + 1 as AdTitleWordLength,
#--analyse the punctuation of a title
case
when left (title,1) in ('1', '2' ,'3' ,'4','5','6','7','8','9') then 'starts with a number'
when instr(title, '-') !=0 then 'contains a dash'
when instr(title, ':') !=0 then 'contains a colon'
when instr(title, ',') !=0 then 'contains a comma'
when instr(title, '"') !=0 then 'contains quoatation marks'
when right(title,1) = '!' then 'ends with an exclamation mark'
when right(title,1) = '?' then 'ends with a question mark'
when right(title, 1) = '.' then 'ends with a dot'
when right(title,1) not in ('?', '!', '.') then 'ends with no punctuation'
when right(title,1) in ('1', '2' ,'3' ,'4','5','6','7','8','9') then 'ends with a number'
end as AdPunctuation,

when length(title) >= 40 and length(name) < 70 then '40-70 charcaters'
when length(title) >= 70 then 'more than 70 characters'
end as AdTitleCharength
#---find the number of Upper case characters in the string
#regexp_count(name, '[A-Z]') as NumberOfUpperCaseCharactersinTitle,
