Prevent phantom reads just in some rows

You need to analyze some data about your bank customers with the customer_id between 1 and 10. You only want to lock the rows of the customers table with the customer_id between 1 and 10. In doing this, you guarantee nobody will be able to change these rows, and you allow other transactions to work with the rest of the table.

You need to select the customers and execute some mathematical operations again. (We won't focus either on these operations for this exercise.) After that, you want to select the customers with the customer_id between 1 and 10 again, ensuring nothing has changed.

How can you prepare the script?

Set the appropriate isolation level to prevent phantom reads.
Begin a transaction.
Select those customers you want to lock.
Commit the transaction.
