Question Update 1 colum with the data of 2 colums in the same table.

Hello,

I'am new to databases, i hope someone can help me.

I need to merge 2 colums from the same table, into a other colum in the same table. is this possible ? and how can i do it.

a + b = ab

I think it's a update or insert statement

Thank for your help.
