How to delete the rows with three same data columns and one different data column - sql

I have a table "MARK_TABLE" as below.
How can I delete the rows with same "STUDENT", "COURSE" and "SCORE" values?
| ID | STUDENT | COURSE | SCORE |
|----|---------|--------|-------|
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 60 |
| 3 | 1 | 2 | 81 |
| 4 | 1 | 3 | 81 |
| 9 | 2 | 1 | 80 |
| 10 | 1 | 1 | 60 |
| 11 | 2 | 1 | 80 |
Now I already filtered the data I want to KEEP, but without the "ID"...
SELECT student, course, score FROM mark_table
INTERSECT
SELECT student, course, score FROM mark_table
The output:
| STUDENT | COURSE | SCORE |
|---------|--------|-------|
| 1 | 1 | 60 |
| 1 | 2 | 81 |
| 1 | 3 | 81 |
| 2 | 1 | 80 |


Use the following query to delete the desired rows:
DELETE FROM MARK_TABLE M
WHERE
EXISTS (
SELECT
1
FROM
MARK_TABLE M_IN
WHERE
M.STUDENT = M_IN.STUDENT
AND M.COURSE = M_IN.COURSE
AND M.SCORE = M_IN.SCORE
AND M.ID < M_IN.ID
)
OUTPUT

use distinct
SELECT distinct student, course, score FROM mark_table


Assuming you don't just want to select the unique data you want to keep (you mention you've already done this), you can proceed as follows:
Create a temporary table to hold the data you want to keep
Insert the data you want to keep into the temporary table
Empty the source table
Re-Insert the data you want to keep into the source table.


select * from
(
select row_number() over (partition by student,course,score order by score)
rn,student,course,score from mark_table
) t
where rn=1


Use CTE with RowNumber
create table #MARK_TABLE (ID int, STUDENT int, COURSE int, SCORE int)
insert into #MARK_TABLE
values
(1,1,1,60),
(3,1,2,81),
(4,1,3,81),
(9,2,1,80),
(10,1,1,60),
(11,2,1,80)
;with cteDeleteID as(
Select id, row_number() over (partition by student,course,score order by score) [row_number] from #MARK_TABLE
)
delete from #MARK_TABLE where id in
(
select id from cteDeleteID where [row_number] != 1
)
select * from #MARK_TABLE
drop table #MARK_TABLE

Get some values from the table by selecting

I have a table:
| id | Number |Address
| -----| ------------|-----------
| 1 | 0 | NULL
| 1 | 1 | NULL
| 1 | 2 | 50
| 1 | 3 | NULL
| 2 | 0 | 10
| 3 | 1 | 30
| 3 | 2 | 20
| 3 | 3 | 20
| 4 | 0 | 75
| 4 | 1 | 22
| 4 | 2 | 30
| 5 | 0 | NULL
I need to get: the NUMBER of the last ADDRESS change for each ID.
I wrote this select:
select dh.id, dh.number from table dh where dh =
(select max(min(t.history)) from table t where t.id = dh.id group by t.address)
But this select not correctly handling the case when the address first changed, and then changed to the previous value. For example id=1: group by return:
| Number |
| -------- |
| NULL |
| 50 |
I have been thinking about this select for several days, and I will be happy to receive any help.

You can do this using row_number() -- twice:
select t.id, min(number)
from (select t.*,
row_number() over (partition by id order by number desc) as seqnum1,
row_number() over (partition by id, address order by number desc) as seqnum2
from t
) t
where seqnum1 = seqnum2
group by id;
What this does is enumerate the rows by number in descending order:
Once per id.
Once per id and address.
These values are the same only when the value is 1, which is the most recent address in the data. Then aggregation pulls back the earliest row in this group.

I answered my question myself, if anyone needs it, my solution:
select * from table dh1 where dh1.number = (
select max(x.number)
from (
select
dh2.id, dh2.number, dh2.address, lag(dh2.address) over(order by dh2.number asc) as prev
from table dh2 where dh1.id=dh2.id
) x
where NVL(x.address, 0) <> NVL(x.prev, 0)
);

Replacing numeric values in a cloumn by their ranking respective the other values in the column

Lets say I have A table a that looks like this:
+---+--------------+------+
|NUM| NAME |POINTS|
+-------------------------+
| 1 | Peter | 92 |
| 1 | Rose | 93 |
| 1 | Karl | 94 |
| 2 | Frank | 15 |
| 2 | Sarah | 16 |
+-------------------------+
With the primary key being combination of NUM and NAME.
Now I would like to replace the numbers in POINTS with their ranking, starting by 1 for every num. I want to actually update the table.
Example:
+---+--------------+------+
|NUM| NAME |POINTS|
+-------------------------+
| 1 | Peter | 3 |
| 1 | Rose | 2 |
| 1 | Karl | 1 |
| 2 | Frank | 1 |
| 2 | Sarah | 2 |
+-------------------------+
What would be the best way of doing that?

If you want to actually change the values in the table, you can use a MERGE statement:
merge into the_table t
using (
select num, name,
dense_rank() over (partition by num order by points) as rnk
from the_table
) x on (x.num = t.num and x.name = t.name)
when matched then update
set points = x.rnk;
If you just want to display the values, use the inner select on its own:
select num, name,
dense_rank() over (partition by num order by points) as points,
from the_table

I would add a column to the table for ranking, then loop through the table while there exists a row with no ranking.
Then find the max points where ranking is null, and update ranking for all rows who have those points to their ranking.
The ranking is either a counter if the points are unique, or you could just count the records with ranking every time you loop and have the new ranking be count(records with ranking) + 1
All this would look something like this
FOR r in (SELECT * FROM people WHERE ranking IS NULL) LOOP
SELECT MAX(POINTS)
INTO temp_points
FROM people
WHERE ranking IS NULL;
SELECT COUNT(*)
INTO temp_ranking
FROM people
WHERE ranking is not null;
temp_ranking := temp_ranking + 1;
UPDATE people
SET ranking = temp_ranking
WHERE points = temp_points;
END LOOP;

sql query to find unique records

I am new to sql and need your help to achieve the below , I have tried using group and count functions but I am getting all the rows in the unique group which are duplicated.
Below is my source data.
CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration,Call_Plan
543,xxx-23,12,12,500
543,xxx-23,12,12,501
543,xxx-23,12,12,510
643,xxx-33,11,17,700
343,xxx-33,11,17,700
766,xxx-74,32,1,300
766,xxx-74,32,1,300
877,xxx-32,12,2,300
877,xxx-32,12,2,300
877,xxx-32,12,2,301
Please note :-the source has multiple combinations of unique records, so when I do the count the unique set is not appearing as count =1
example :- the below data in source have 60 records for each combination
877,xxx-32,12,2,300 -- 60 records
877,xxx-32,12,2,301 -- 60 records
I am trying to get the unique unique records, but the duplicate records are also getting in
Below are the rows which should come up in the unique group. i.e. there will be multiple call_Plans for the same combinations of CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration. I want to read records for which there is only one call plan for each unique combination of CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration,
CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration,Call_Plan
643,xxx-33,11,17,700
343,xxx-33,11,17,700
766,xxx-74,32,1,300
Please advice on this.
Thanks and Regards

To do more complex groupings you could also use a Common Table Expression/Derived Table along with windowed functions:
declare #t table(CDR_ID int,TelephoneNo nvarchar(20),Call_ID int,call_Duration int,Call_Plan int);
insert into #t values (543,'xxx-23',12,12,500),(543,'xxx-23',12,12,501),(543,'xxx-23',12,12,510),(643,'xxx-33',11,17,700),(343,'xxx-33',11,17,700),(766,'xxx-74',32,1,300),(766,'xxx-74',32,1,300),(877,'xxx-32',12,2,300),(877,'xxx-32',12,2,300),(877,'xxx-32',12,2,301);
with cte as
(
select CDR_ID
,TelephoneNo
,Call_ID
,call_Duration
,Call_Plan
,count(*) over (partition by CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration) as c
from (select distinct * from #t) a
)
select *
from cte
where c = 1;
Output:
+--------+-------------+---------+---------------+-----------+---+
| CDR_ID | TelephoneNo | Call_ID | call_Duration | Call_Plan | c |
+--------+-------------+---------+---------------+-----------+---+
| 343 | xxx-33 | 11 | 17 | 700 | 1 |
| 643 | xxx-33 | 11 | 17 | 700 | 1 |
| 766 | xxx-74 | 32 | 1 | 300 | 1 |
+--------+-------------+---------+---------------+-----------+---+

using not exists()
select distinct *
from t
where not exists (
select 1
from t as i
where i.cdr_id = t.cdr_id
and i.telephoneno = t.telephoneno
and i.call_id = t.call_id
and i.call_duration = t.call_duration
and i.call_plan <> t.call_plan
)
rextester demo: http://rextester.com/RRNNE20636
returns:
+--------+-------------+---------+---------------+-----------+-----+
| cdr_id | TelephoneNo | Call_id | call_Duration | Call_Plan | cnt |
+--------+-------------+---------+---------------+-----------+-----+
| 343 | xxx-33 | 11 | 17 | 700 | 1 |
| 643 | xxx-33 | 11 | 17 | 700 | 1 |
| 766 | xxx-74 | 32 | 1 | 300 | 1 |
+--------+-------------+---------+---------------+-----------+-----+

Basically you should try this:
SELECT A.CDR_ID, A.TelephoneNo, A.Call_ID, A.call_Duration, A.Call_Plan
FROM YOUR_TABLE A
INNER JOIN (SELECT CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration
FROM YOUR_TABLE
GROUP BY CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration
HAVING COUNT(*)=1
) B ON A.CDR_ID= B.CDR_ID AND A.TelephoneNo=B.TelephoneNo AND A.Call_ID=B.Call_ID AND A.call_Duration=B.call_Duration
You can do a shorter query using Windows Function COUNT(*) OVER ...

Below query will provide you the result
SELECT CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration,Call_Plan, COUNT(*)
FROM TABLE_NAME GROUP BY CDR_ID,TelephoneNo,Call_ID,call_Duration,Call_Plan
HAVING COUNT(*) < 2;
It gives you with the count as well. If not required you can remove it.

Select *, count(CDR_ID)
from table
group by CDR_ID, TelephoneNo, Call_ID, call_Duration, Call_Plan
having count(CDR_ID) = 1

Sql two table query most duplicated foreign key

I got those two tables sport and student:
First table sport:
|idsport | name |
_______________________
| 1 | bobsled |
| 2 | skating |
| 3 | boarding |
| 4 | iceskating |
| 5 | skiing |
Second table student:
foreign key
|idstudent | name | sport_idsport
__________________________________________
| 1 | john | 3 |
| 2 | pauly | 2 |
| 3 | max | 1 |
| 4 | jane | 2 |
| 5 | nico | 5 |
so far i did this it output which number is mostly inserted, but cant get it to work
with two tables
SELECT sport_idsport
FROM (SELECT sport_idsport FROM student GROUP BY sport_idsport ORDER BY COUNT(*) desc)
WHERE ROWNUM<=1;
I need to output name of most popular sport, in that case it would be skating.
I use oracle sql.

with counter as (
Select sport_idsport,
count(*) as cnt,
dense_rank() over (order by count(*) desc) as rn
from student
group by sport_idsport
)
select s.*, c.cnt
from sport s
join counter c on c.sport_idsport = s.idsport and c.rn = 1;
SQLFiddle example: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!4/b76e21/1

select cnt, sport_idsport from (
select count(*) cnt, sport_idsport
from student
group by sport_idsport
order by count(*) desc
)
where rownum = 1

SELECT only latest record of an ID from given rows

I have this table shown below...How do I select only the latest data of the id based on changeno?
+----+--------------+------------+--------+
| id | data | changeno | |
+----+--------------+------------+--------+
| 1 | Yes | 1 | |
| 2 | Yes | 2 | |
| 2 | Maybe | 3 | |
| 3 | Yes | 4 | |
| 3 | Yes | 5 | |
| 3 | No | 6 | |
| 4 | No | 7 | |
| 5 | Maybe | 8 | |
| 5 | Yes | 9 | |
+----+---------+------------+-------------+
I would want this result...
+----+--------------+------------+--------+
| id | data | changeno | |
+----+--------------+------------+--------+
| 1 | Yes | 1 | |
| 2 | Maybe | 3 | |
| 3 | No | 6 | |
| 4 | No | 7 | |
| 5 | Yes | 9 | |
+----+---------+------------+-------------+
I currently have this SQL statement...
SELECT id, data, MAX(changeno) as changeno FROM Table1 GROUP BY id;
and clearly it doesn't return what I want. This should return an error because of the aggrerate function. If I added fields under the GROUP BY clause it works but it doesn't return what I want. The SQL statement is by far the closest I could think of. I'd appreciate it if anybody could help me on this. Thank you in advance :)

This is typically referred to as the "greatest-n-per-group" problem. One way to solve this in SQL Server 2005 and higher is to use a CTE with a calculated ROW_NUMBER() based on the grouping of the id column, and sorting those by largest changeno first:
;WITH cte AS
(
SELECT id, data, changeno,
rn = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY id ORDER BY changeno DESC)
FROM dbo.Table1
)
SELECT id, data, changeno
FROM cte
WHERE rn = 1
ORDER BY id;

You want to use row_number() for this:
select id, data, changeno
from (SELECT t.*,
row_number() over (partition by id order by changeno desc) as seqnum
FROM Table1 t
) t
where seqnum = 1;

Not a well formed or performance optimized query but for small tasks it works fine.
SELECT * FROM TEST
WHERE changeno IN (SELECT MAX(changeno)
FROM TEST
GROUP BY id)

for other alternatives :
DECLARE #Table1 TABLE
(
id INT, data VARCHAR(5), changeno INT
);
INSERT INTO #Table1
SELECT 1,'Yes',1
UNION ALL
SELECT 2,'Yes',2
UNION ALL
SELECT 2,'Maybe',3
UNION ALL
SELECT 3,'Yes',4
UNION ALL
SELECT 3,'Yes',5
UNION ALL
SELECT 3,'No',6
UNION ALL
SELECT 4,'No',7
UNION ALL
SELECT 5,'Maybe',8
UNION ALL
SELECT 5,'Yes',9
SELECT Y.id, Y.data, Y.changeno
FROM #Table1 Y
INNER JOIN (
SELECT id, changeno = MAX(changeno)
FROM #Table1
GROUP BY id
) X ON X.id = Y.id
WHERE X.changeno = Y.changeno
ORDER BY Y.id
