SPARQL Tutorial - Primer

Introduction

Welcome to the SPARQL primer! If you are completely new to SPARQL, you're in the right place. We have designed this primer tutorial to get you up & running and putting SPARQL to work for you as quickly as possible, but there are some fundamental concepts to understand in order to jump into your first query. Therefore, this first section has more background and conceptual information than subsequent sections. We're going to plow through this theoretical info, so if anything doesn't make sense, just stick with it. Everything becomes very clear once you start querying. Surprisingly, the fastest way to learn SPARQL is by writing SPARQL queries.
