A website to monitor filming activity in New York City is being constructed based on film permit applications stored in film_permit. This website will include information such as an event_id, parking restrictions required for the filming (parking_held), and the purpose of the filming.

Your task is to deliver data to the web development team that will not require the team to perform further cleaning. event_id values will need to be padded with 0s in order to have a uniform length, capitalization for parking will need to be modified to only capitalize the initial letter of a word, and extra spaces from parking descriptions will need to be removed. The REGEXP_REPLACE() function (introduced in one of the previous exercises) will be used to clean the extra spaces.

  • Use the LPAD() function to complete the query so that each event_id is always 10 digits in length with preceding 0s added for any event_id less than 10 digits.
