INSERT INTO table2 (quantity, fruit)
VALUES
    ('one', 'apple'),

INSERT INTO table3 (id, name, quantity, fruit, price)

Note

Expression list comparisons with the following operators may have a different behavior in Snowflake. ( < , <= , > , >=). These operators are transformed into logical AND operations to achieve full equivalence in Snowflake.

Input Code:
Redshift

Bitwise operators on binary data

For the BITAND, BITOR and BITXOR functions the'LEFT' parameter is added to insert padding in case both binary values have different length, this is done to avoid errors when comparing the values in Snowflake.
