If you need

LIKE 'abc%'

and for it to not be case insensitive, then LIKE is preferred.  Also, LIKE
is standard SQL so if you're writing SQL that has to run across different
vendors, you'd use LIKE.

Subject: Re: [sqlite] Using LIKE to check the first digits?


if GLOB is so good, I am curious what are the instances in which one
would prefer

  col LIKE '123%'

over

  col GLOB '123*'
