### ILIKE Opeartor
The 'ILIKE' works same as 'LIKE' but it ignores case-sensitivity in the string. The provided pattern string should be the case-sensitive else you will get an error. To avoid these errors, just write `ILIKE` instead of `LIKE`.

```sql
FullName LIKE 'monique%' // --you will face error because the name saved in Database is 'Monique'.
FullName ILIKE 'monique%' // --you will not see any error now.
```
