I have a database with two tables, 'person' and 'person_keyword'. I wanna print the number of keywords for each person. What I have tried until now is:
select person.name, keyword from person JOIN person_keyword ON person.name=person_keyword.keyword
But this only gives:
name keyword
----- -----
JOHN A
JOHN AD
JOHN V
SAM DE
SAM AS
EVA AZ
EVA AS
EVA FQ
EVA MQ
My expected output looks like this:
Name keyword
----- -----
JOHN 3
SAM 2
EVA 4
How should I solve this?
You can use group by:
select p.name, count(*) as cnt
from person p
inner join person_keyword ok on p.name = pk.keyword
group by p.name
Note: unless you really want some filtering on person, you could very well get that result directly from person_keyword:
select keyword as name, count(*) as cnt
from person_keyword
group by keyword

I'm new to SQL and sorry if this q has been asked before - I couldn't phrase it properly.
Say I have a table that looks like this:
Name Call ID
Sally 1
Sally 2
Sally 3
Mike 4
Mike 5
Bob 6
Bob 7
I want to create a new table that looks like this:
Name No. of calls
Sally 3
Mike 2
Bob 2
Attempt
I assume I would do something like:
SELECT
Name,
COUNT(distinct Name) AS No. of Calls
FROM Table
Thanks.
You just need to group them and that's all.
SELECT
Name
COUNT(*) AS [No. of Calls]
FROM
Table
GROUP BY
Name
You're looking for GROUP BY:
SELECT Name, COUNT(*) AS 'No. of Calls'
FROM Table
GROUP BY NAME
ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC
I have three tables STUDENTS, SUBJECTS, RANK ,with data as -
1) STUDENTS [NAME(Primary)]
NAME
--------
Alex
Greg
2) SUBJECTS [ID(Primary)]:
ID
--------
100
101
102
3) RANK [SEQ(Primary), NAME, ID, RANK]
SEQ NAME ID RANK
------ ------- ------ ------
1 Alex 100 A
2 Greg 100 A
3 Greg 101 B
I want to create a view that should display data as
NAME ID RANK
------- ------ ------
Alex 100 A
Alex 101 Z
Alex 102 Z
Greg 100 A
Greg 101 B
Greg 102 Z
So, for every student and for every subject, the View should display the RANK if present in RANK table, else replace the NULL with 'Z'.
I'm a newbie to SQL. So any help in forming the query would be deeply appreciated!
cross join student and subject then left outer join the result with rank to get ranks for all (student, subject) combination. selecting column with NVL OR COALESCE will replace NULL with 'z'.
SELECT st.name,
su.id,
NVL(ra.rank,'Z') Rank, --COALESCE(ra.rank,'Z') Rank
FROM student st
CROSS JOIN subject su
LEFT OUTER JOIN rank ra
ON ra.name = st.name
AND ra.id = su.id
ORDER BY st.name,su.id
Note : ORDER BY can be removed from above query if you don't need.
fiddle
SELECT r.NAME, r.ID, NVL(r.RANK, 'Z')
FROM RANK r, studendts st, SUBJECTS su
WHERE st. NAME = r. NAME
AND su.ID = r.ID
ORDER BY 1,2,3
I have 2 tables with one having a reference to the first by id
first table for example is customer having the fields
id firstname lastname
------ --------- ---------
1 john smith
2 jessica james
the second table for example is product having the fields
id customer_id product descr
------- ----------- --------- ------
1 1 ts Shirt
2 1 ti Tie
3 2 sk skrit
I need a query that will output the following
customer.firstname customer.lastname product_and_desc
------------------ ------------------ ---------------------
john smith ts-Shirt , ti-Tie
jessica james sk-skirt
with the product rows variable for each customer.
I appreciate you help :)
thanks,
You can use list_agg(). In your case:
select c.firstname, c.lastname,
list_agg(p.product||'-'||p.desc, ' , ') within group (order by p.id) as product_and_desc
from customer c join
product p
on c.id = p.customer_id
group by c.firstname, c.lastname;
I would suggest, though, that the second argument to list_agg() be ', ' rather than ' , '. The space before the comma looks a bit unusual.
select first_name,last_name,wm_concat(product||'-'||descr) as product_and_descr
from tbl1 ,tbl2 where tbl1.id=tbl2.customer_id
group by first_name,last_name;
Student
student_id FirstName LastName
---------------------------------------------------
1 Joe Bloggs
2 Alan Day
3 David Johnson
Student_Course
course_id student_id courseName
---------------------------------------------------
1 1 Computer Science
2 1 David Beckham Studies
3 1 Geography
1 3 Computer Science
3 3 Geography
Student_clubs
club_id student_id club_name club_count
---------------------------------------------------
1 1 Footbal 10
2 1 Rugby 10
3 1 Syncronized Swimming 10
4 3 Tennis 15
In the above example, student with id = 1 takes 3 course and is part of 3 clubs.
If i was to find out which courses a student is involved in or which club the student is part of i can do it but i will need to run two queries. Is it possible to run a single query against the
tables listed above so that the results come out like this:
Output
student_id FirstName Student_associated_courses Student_associated_clubs
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Joe 1,2,3 Football, Rugby, Syncronized swimming
3 David 1,3 Tennis
Is it possible to get the above output with just one query? I am using JDBC to get the data so i am trying to see if i can avoid multiple trips to get the necessary data.
use GROUP_CONCAT with DISTINCT in MySQL
SELECT a.student_ID, a.firstname,
GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT b.course_ID),
GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT c.club_name)
FROM student a
INNER JOIN student_Course b
ON a.student_id = b.student_ID
INNER JOIN student_clubs c
ON a.student_ID = c.student_ID
GROUP BY a.student_ID, a.firstname
See SQLFiddle Demo
Try it like this:
SELECT *
FROM Student s JOIN
(SELECT sc."student_id", listagg(sc."course_id", ',')within group(ORDER BY sc."course_id")
FROM Student_Course sc
GROUP BY sc."student_id") s_course ON s."student_id"=s_course."student_id"
JOIN (SELECT sl."student_id", listagg(sl."club_name", ',')within GROUP(ORDER BY sl."club_name")
FROM Student_clubs sl
GROUP BY sl."student_id") s_club ON s."student_id"=s_club."student_id"
The "catch" is that LISTAGG doesn't work with DISTINCT keyword
Here is a fiddle
I have got a table named student. I have written this query:
select * From student where sname in ('rajesh','rohit','rajesh')
In the above query it's returning me two records; one matching 'rajesh' and another matching: 'rohit'.
But i want there to be 3 records: 2 for 'rajesh' and 1 for 'rohit'.
Please provide me some solution or tell me where i am missing.
NOTE: the count of result of sub query is not fix there can be many words there some distinct and some multiple occurrence .
Thanks
Your requirements are not clear, and I'll try to explain why.
Let's define table students
ID FirstName LastName
1 John Smith
2 Mike Smith
3 Ben Bray
4 John Bray
5 John Smith
6 Bill Lynch
7 Bill Smith
Query with WHERE clause:
FirstName in ('Mike', 'Ben', 'Mike')
will return 2 rows only, because it could be rewritten as:
FirstName='Mike' or FirstName='Ben' or FirstName='Mike'
WHERE is filtering clause that just says if existing row satisfy given conditions or not (for each of rows created by FROM clause.
Let's say we have subquery that returns any number of non distinct FirstNames
In case if SQ contains 'Mike', 'Ben', 'Mike' using inner join you can get those 3 rows without problem
Select ST.* from Students ST
Inner Join (Select name from …. <your subquery>) SQ
On ST.FirstName=SQ.name
Result will be:
ID FirstName LastName
2 Mike Smith
2 Mike Smith
3 Ben Bray
Note data are not ordered by order of names returning by SQ. If you want that, SQ should return some ordering number, eg.:
Ord Name
1. Mike
2. Ben
3. Mike
In that case query should be:
Select ST.* from Students ST
Inner Join (Select ord, name from …. <your subquery>) SQ
On ST.FirstName=SQ.name
Order By SQ.ord
And result:
ID FirstName LastName
2 Mike Smith (1)
3 Ben Bray (2)
2 Mike Smith (3)
Now, let's se what will happen if subquery returns
Ord Name
1. Mike
2. Bill
3. Mike
You will end up with
ID FirstName LastName
2 Mike Smith (1)
6 Bill Lynch (2)
7 Bill Smith (2)
2 Mike Smith (3)
Even worse, if you have something like:
Ord Name
1. John
2. Bill
3. John
Result is:
ID FirstName LastName
1 John Smith (1)
4 John Bray (1)
5 John Smith (1)
6 Bill Lynch (2)
7 Bill Smith (2)
1 John Smith (3)
4 John Bray (3)
5 John Smith (3)
This is an complex situation, and you have to clarify precisely what requirement is.
If you need only one student with the same name, for each of rows in SQ, you can use something like SQL 2005+):
;With st1 as
(
Select Row_Number() over (Partition by SQ.ord Order By ID) as rowNum,
ST.ID,
ST.FirstName,
ST.LastName,
SQ.ord
from Students ST
Inner Join (Select ord, name from …. <your subquery>) SQ
On ST.FirstName=SQ.name
)
Select ID, FirstName, LastName
From st1
Where rowNum=1 -- that was missing row, added later
Order By ord
It will return (for SQ values John, Bill, John)
ID FirstName LastName
1 John Smith (1)
6 Bill Lynch (2)
1 John Smith (3)
Note, numbers (1),(2),(3) are shown to display value of ord although they are not returned by query.
If you can split the where clause in your calling code, you could perform a UNION ALL on each clause.
SELECT * FROM Student WHERE sname = 'rajesh'
UNION ALL SELECT * FROM Student WHERE sname = 'rohit'
UNION ALL SELECT * FROM Student WHERE sname = 'rajesh'
Try using a JOIN:
SELECT ...
FROM Student s
INNER JOIN (
SELECT 'rajesh' AS sname
UNION ALL
SELECT 'rohit'
UNION ALL
SELECT 'rajesh') t ON s.sname = t.sname
just because you've got a criteria in there two times doesn't mean that it will return 1 result per criteria. SQL engines usually just use the unique criteria - thus, from your example, there will be 2 criteria in IN clause: 'rajesh','rohit'
WHY do you need to return 2 results? are there two rajesh in your table? they should BOTH return then. You don't need to ask for rajesh twice for that to happen. What does your data look like? What do you want to see returned?
Hi i am query just as you give above and it give me all data that matches in the condition of in clause. just like your post
select * from person
where personid in (
'Carson','Kim','Carson'
)
order by FirstName
and its give me all records which fulfill this Criteria
