/* To insert into an auto incrementing field without specifing every column in
the table, you can use the key word default in the place of the auto 
incrementing column*/

INSERT INTO my_table VALUES(default, "test1", 222)
/*VS */
INSERT INTO my_table(name, num) VALUES("test1", 222)

can be very tedious when you have many columns, just use the keyword defualt
instead and you only have to type it once.
