1. MySQL is the most commonly used database on the internet.
2. I wouldn't use LibreOffice Base as a starting point for learning databases. I would start with MySQL instead.
3. No--learn a real database like MySQL. MySQL is free and uses SQL--not whatever SQL variable LibreOffice Base uses.

A database is a collection of information that is organized so that it can easily be accessed, managed, and updated.
