Difference Between Static Soql and Dynamic Soql

The document discusses the difference between static SOQL and dynamic SOQL. Static SOQL queries are written within square brackets and are good to use when the query conditions do not change. Dynamic SOQL enables more flexible applications by allowing the creation of SOQL strings at runtime, for example based on user input. To create a dynamic SOQL query, the Database.query() method is used to execute the string query against the database.
