update query feasible solution

[rama rajesh]

My Requirement is updating the emp table, sal column

if sal>=2000 and <3000 add 2000
if sal>=3000 and <4000 add 3000
if sal>=4000 and <5000 add 5000

you can do this in many ways.but what is the feasible solution?

How many ranges do you have? If just the thre, I would use three update statements? If a lot, I would use a stored procedure.
