In last post I show how install and create first database of PostgreSQL in pgAdmin. In this section I show how connect to PostgreSQL database , create new database and connect to new database.

Click the Enter.

The database was created. To connect to new database, you can write command:
\c or \connect with name of new database. Look at screen below.
