This question already has an answer here:
oracle - querying NULL values in unpivot query
(1 answer)
Closed 2 years ago.
I'm currently doing an unpivot for a Oracle Data Source (v.12.2) like this:
SELECT *
FROM some_table
UNPIVOT (
(X,Y,Val)
FOR SITE
IN (
(SITE1_X, SITE1_Y, SITE1_VAL) AS '1',
(SITE2_X, SITE2_Y, SITE2_VAL) AS '2',
(SITE3_X, SITE3_Y, SITE3_VAL) AS '3'
))
This works totally fine so far. There is only one exception - I have another column, let's say extend_info, ... if this column has the value y, there will be only one row of this column and all the site columns will be null. Nevertheless I would like to keep this row and not drop it.
I'm not really sure how to do this or what would be a nice way to do this. Any recommendations?
Example:
Original Table:
ID | SITE1_X | SITE1_Y |SITE1_VAL | SITE2_X | SITE2_Y | SITE2_VAL | ... | extend_info
-------
1 | 0 | 0 | 5 | 1 | 1 | 10 | ... | n
2 | 0 | 0 | 3 | null | null | null | ... | n
3 | null | null | null | null | null | null | ... | y
current output:
ID | SITE | X | Y | VAL | extend_info
-------
1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 5 | n
2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 10 | n
3 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 3 | n
desired output:
ID | SITE | X | Y | VAL | extend_info
-------
1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 5 | n
2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 10 | n
3 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 3 | n
4 | | | | | y
I don't really care what is in SITE|X|Y|VAL in that case, can be 0 for everything or null.
Bonus question:
If extend_info is y I would like to join another table with this ID. The other table looks like this:
ID | F_ID | X | Y | VAL
-----
1 | 4 | 1 | 1 | 8
2 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 9
and in that case my final output table should look like:
ID | SITE | X | Y | VAL | X_OTHER_TABLE | Y_OTHER_TABLE
-------
1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 5 |
2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 10 |
3 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 3 |
4 | | | | 8 | 1 | 1
5 | | | | 9 | 2 | 2
I know... the database structure is super ugly but that is what a vendor provides us and we are trying to create a View to make it easier to perform some data analysis tasks on it.
It doesn't have to look 1:1 like my final example - but maybe my itention gets clear = I want to have one single table/view with all the information in a single format.
Thanks for any help!
I would recommend a lateral join:
SELECT s.id, u.*
FROM some_table s CROSS JOIN LATERAL
(SELECT s.SITE1_X as SITE_X, s.SITE1_Y as SITE_Y, s.SITE1_VAL as SITE_VAL FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT s.SITE2_X, s.SITE2_Y, s.SITE2_VAL FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT s.SITE3_X, s.SITE3_Y, s.SITE3_VAL FROM DUAL
) u;
You can just join additional tables to this as you like.

I have the following table in the MySQL database:
| id | col | val |
| -- | --- | --- |
| 1 | 1 | y |
| 2 | 1 | y |
| 3 | 1 | y |
| 4 | 1 | n |
| 5 | 2 | n |
| 6 | 3 | n |
| 7 | 3 | n |
| 8 | 4 | y |
| 9 | 5 | y |
| 10 | 5 | y |
Now I want to distinctly select the records where all the values of similar col are equal to y. I tried both the following queries:
SELECT DISTINCT `col` FROM `tbl` WHERE `val` = 'y'
SELECT `col` FROM `tbl` GROUP BY `col` HAVING (`val` = 'y')
But it's not working out as per my expectation. I want the result to look like this:
| col |
| --- |
| 4 |
| 5 |
But 1 is also being included in the results with my queries. Can anybody help me building the correct query? As far as I understand, I may need to create a derived table, but can't quite figure out the right path.
You are close, with the second query. Instead, compare the min and max values:
SELECT `col`
FROM `tbl`
GROUP BY `col`
HAVING MIN(val) = MAX(val) AND MIN(`val`) = 'y';
Check that 'y' is the minimum value:
HAVING MIN(val) = 'y'
I am having trouble semi-transposing the table below based on the 'LENGTH' column. I am using an Oracle database, sample data:
+-----------+-----------+--------+------+
| PERSON_ID | PERIOD_ID | LENGTH | FLAG |
+-----------+-----------+--------+------+
| 1 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 0 |
| 2 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
+-----------+-----------+--------+------+
I would like to lengthen this table based on the LENGTH row; basically duplicating the row for each value in the LENGTH column.
See the desired output table below:
+-----------+-----------+--------+------+
| PERSON_ID | PERIOD_ID | NUMBER | FLAG |
+-----------+-----------+--------+------+
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 2 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 3 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
| 1 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
| 1 | 2 | 2 | 0 |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 0 |
| 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 | 3 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
+-----------+-----------+--------+------+
I typically work in Posgres so Oracle is new to me.
I've found some solutions using the connect by statement but they seem overly complicated, particularly when compared to the simple generate_series() command from Posgres.
A recursive CTE subtracting 1 from length until 1 is reached should work. (In Postgres too, BTW, should you need something working cross platform.)
WITH cte (person_id,
period_id,
number_,
flag)
AS
(
SELECT person_id,
period_id,
length number_,
flag
FROM elbat
UNION ALL
SELECT person_id,
period_id,
number_ - 1 number_,
flag
FROM cte
WHERE number_ > 1
)
SELECT *
FROM cte
ORDER BY person_id,
period_id,
number_;

Can anhone help me out or point me in the right direction? What is simplest way to get from current table to output table??
Current Table
ID | type | amount |
2 | A | 19 |
2 | B | 6 |
3 | A | 5 |
3 | B | 11 |
4 | A | 1 |
4 | B | 23 |
Desires output
ID | type | amount | change |
2 | A | 19 | 13 |
2 | B | 6 | -6 |
3 | A | 5 | -22 |
3 | B | 11 | |
4 | A | 1 | |
4 | B | 23 | |
I don't get how the values are put on rows. You can, for instance, subtract the "B" value from the "A" value for any given id. For instance:
select t.*,
(case when type = 'A'
then amount - max(amount) filter (type = 'B') over (partition by id)
end) as diff_a_b
from t;
I want to select from a table if row counts of similar filed is maximum depends on other columns.
As example
| user_id | team_id | isOk |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 1 | 1 |
| 4 | 1 | 1 |
| 5 | 2 | 1 |
| 6 | 2 | 1 |
| 7 | 2 | 1 |
| 8 | 3 | 1 |
| 9 | 3 | 1 |
| 10 | 3 | 1 |
| 11 | 3 | 0 |
So i want to select team 1 and 2 because they all have 1 value at isOk Column,
i tried to use this query
SELECT Team
FROM _Table1
WHERE isOk= 1
GROUP BY Team
HAVING COUNT(*) > 3
But still i have to define a row count which can be maximum or not.
Thanks in advance.
Is this what you are looking for?
select team
from _table1
group by team
having min(isOk) = 1;
I have a table with X values and Y values, both INT. What I want to do is group on the X value with the condition that it contains a distinct combination of Y values. I also want to see the total number of each combination.
I tried using SUM ( POWER (2, Y)), but that generates numbers that are too big as Y can get up to about 300 in some cases.
+--------------+--------------+
| X | Y |
+--------------+--------------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 2 |
| 1 | 4 |
| 1 | 6 |
| 2 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 |
| 2 | 4 |
| 2 | 6 |
| 3 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 |
| 3 | 5 |
| 4 | 2 |
| 4 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 |
| 5 | 2 |
| 5 | 3 |
| 5 | 6 |
+--------------+--------------+
I want the result to look something like:
+--------------+--------------+
| X | COUNT |
+--------------+--------------+
| 1 | 2 |
| 3 | 2 |
| 5 | 1 |
+--------------+--------------+
Based on your description (but not on your sample data) next query should do:
select X, count(distinct Y)
from TBL
group by X
Thanks for trying to help. I realize that it might have been hard to understand what I was trying to do.
Anyway, I ended up solving it with the checksum_agg aggregate function.
