 WHERE winner LIKE 'C%' AND winner LIKE '%n'

Select the code that shows how many Chemistry awards were given between 1950 and 1960

SELECT COUNT(subject) FROM nobel
 WHERE subject = 'Chemistry'
   AND BETWEEN 1950 and 1960

SELECT COUNT(subject) FROM nobel
 WHERE subject = 'Chemistry'
   AND yr BETWEEN (1950, 1960)

SELECT COUNT(subject) FROM nobel
 WHERE subject = 'Chemistry'
   AND yr BETWEEN 1950 and 1960

SELECT subject FROM nobel
 WHERE subject = 'Chemistry'
   AND yr BETWEEN 1950 and 1960

SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM nobel
 WHERE yr NOT IN (SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject LIKE 'Medicine')

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT yr) FROM nobel
 WHERE yr NOT IN (SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject NOT LIKE 'Medicine')

SELECT COUNT(yr) FROM nobel
 WHERE yr NOT IN (SELECT DISTINCT yr FROM nobel WHERE subject = 'Medicine')
