Find the error in the following MySQL statement?

SELECT cust_id, fed_id
FROM customer
WHERE cust_id = ’I’
AND fed_id BETWEEN 5000-00-000 AND 9999-999-000;

This question tests your understanding of how to use the WHERE clause in MySQL, specifically when working with numeric data. Let's break down the code and find the error:
The Problem
The error lies in the BETWEEN clause for `fed_id`:
```sql AND fed_id BETWEEN 5000-00-000 AND 9999-999-000; ```
MySQL interprets `5000-00-000` and `9999-999-000` as date values because of the hyphens (-) and leading zeros. Since `fed_id` is likely a numeric field (customer ID), this comparison is incorrect.
Solution
To fix the error, we should remove the hyphens and leading zeros from the `BETWEEN` clause:
```sql AND fed_id BETWEEN 5000000 AND 9999999; ```
Explanation
The corrected statement now compares `fed_id` to a numeric range between 5000000 and 9999999.
Answer
The correct answer is Option A: Yes. There is an error in the statement.
