I've been learning Oracle SQL recently and I came across the following code:
SELECT *
FROM employees outer_emps
WHERE (2-1) = (
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM employees inner_emps
WHERE inner_emps.salary > outer_emps.salary
);
Could someone please help me understand the syntax?
It returns employees whose salary is the 2nd highest.
For example:
SQL> select ename, sal from emp order by sal;
ENAME SAL
---------- ----------
SMITH 840
JAMES 950
ADAMS 1100
WARD 1250
MARTIN 1250
MILLER 1300
TURNER 1500
ALLEN 1600
CLARK 2450
BLAKE 2850
JONES 2975
SCOTT 3000 --> SCOTT and FORD have the 2nd highest salary
FORD 3000 -->
KING 5000 --> KING has the highest salary

If you used <, you'd get the 2nd lowest salary (that's James because SMITH's salary is 840 - the lowest - and JAMES follows with 950):
SQL> select ename, sal
2 from emp outer_emps
3 where 1 = (select count(*) from emp inner_emps
4 where inner_emps.sal < outer_emps.sal);
ENAME SAL

I'd probably do it as follows; that's easier to understand:
SQL> with temp as
2 (select ename, sal,
3 rank() over (order by sal desc) rnk
4 from emp
5 )
6 select ename,sal from temp
7 where rnk = 2;
ENAME SAL

This question already has answers here:
How do I limit the number of rows returned by an Oracle query after ordering?
(14 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
SELECT * FROM workers ORDER BY salary DESC LIMIT 2;
I have this SQL statement to get the salary of the two best paid workers but I'm getting a SQL command was not ended correctly.
EDITED:
SELECT worker_id, last_name, job_id, salary
FROM (SELECT w.*,
rank() over (ORDER BY w.salary desc) rnk
FROM worker w
)
WHERE rnk <= 5;
Oracle doesn't support limit. Use;
select w.*
from workers w
order by salary desc
fetch first 2 rows only;
This works in the most recent versions of Oracle. In earlier versions, you can use a subquery:
select w.*
from (select w.*
from workers w
order by salary desc
) w
where rownum <= 2;
If your database doesn't support LIMIT clause, do it differently. For example:
select *
from (select w.*,
rank() over (order by w.salary desc) rnk
from workers w
)
where rnk <= 2;
For example (based on Scott's EMP table):
SQL> select empno, job, sal from emp order by sal desc;
EMPNO JOB SAL
---------- --------- ----------
7839 PRESIDENT 5000 --> two
7902 ANALYST 3000 --> highest

I was trying to print odd numbers of rows from my table without taking taking help of my numeric cloumns
when I try to execute this query I was getting only first row.
select * from emp3 where mod(rownum,2)=1;
emp3 is my table name.
and when I use my one of the numeric columns in place of rownum I was getting desired output.
select * from emp3 where mod(eid,2)=1 order by eid;
where eid is a numeric column in the table.
But what if do not have a numeric column and I want to print only odd number of rows from the table?
Help me!
Try to execute the below query
select * from (select rownum rn ,column from column_name) where mod(rn,2) <> 0
and please refer to this link for better understanding the concept of rownum https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMyw1jumGyQ
If the EID column isn't numeric, then use something that is. For example, ROW_NUMBER gives such an information:
SQL> with temp as
2 (select empno, ename, job sal,
3 row_number() over (order by null) rn
4 from emp
5 )
6 select *
7 from temp
8 where mod(rn, 2) = 1;

currently I am using the below query to get the previous year’s bonus amount for the employees. But I am facing some issues, so I am trying to get the latest element entry value(screen entry value) for the element ‘xyz bonus’ using the RANK() function. Please help. Thanks.
Select
Pam.assignment_number,
Peev.screen_entry_value as bonus_amount
From
Per_all_assignments_m Pam,
Pay_element_entries_f peef,
Pay_element_types_tl petl,
Pay_element_entry_values_f peev
Where
Pam.Person_id=peef.person_id
and peef.element_type_id = petl. element_type_id
And peef.element_entry_id = peev. element_entry_id
And petl.language=‘US’
And to_char(peef.effective_start_date,’yyyy’)=(to_char(sysdate,’yyyy’)-1)
And to_char(peev.effective_start_date,’yyyy’)=(to_char(sysdate,’yyyy’)-1)
And petl.element_name = ‘xyz bonus’
As I don't have your tables, I'm using Scott's sample EMP table.
In there, rows sorted by salaries per department look like this:
SQL> select deptno,
2 ename,
3 sal,
4 rank() over (partition by deptno order by sal desc) rn
5 from emp
6 order by deptno,
7 sal desc;

If you want to fetch the highest salary per department, you'd then
SQL> select deptno, ename, sal
2 from (select deptno,

4 sal,
5 rank() over (partition by deptno order by sal desc) rn
6 from emp
7 )

I guess that's what you are looking for.
Your query might then look like this:
Select
Pam.assignment_number,
Peev.screen_entry_value as bonus_amount,
rank() over (partition by pam.assignment_number order by peev.screen_entry_value desc) rn
From
...
Now, use it as an inline view (or a CTE) and fetch desired values.
If that's not what you are looking for, please, post sample data and desired result.
I need to display 2nd highest salary for each dept, if employee having same salary then display salary with least empno .
I have emp table as below in which deptno 20 have 2nd highest salary 3000 for two empno 7788 and 7902 .

I have written below code:
select * from (
select e.*, row_number() over (partition by deptno order by sal desc ) rn
from emp e
)where rn = 2;
I got below result. But as per my requirement, if any employee having same salary for that department, then salary with least employee id should be display but in my case empno 7902 is displayed. But I need to display salary with empno 7788:
EMPNO ENAME JOB SAL DEPTNO
7782 CLARK MANAGER 2450 10
7902 FORD ANALYST 3000 20
7499 ALLEN SALESMAN 1600 30
How to achieve this?
This query gives the correct result on MySql
select * from (
select e.*, row_number() over (partition by deptno order by sal desc, empno asc ) rn
from emp e
) s where rn = 2;
Result
EMPNO ENAME JOB SAL DEPTNO rn
7782 CLARK MANAGER 2450 10 2
7788 SCOTT ANALYST 3000 20 2
7499 ALLEN SALESMAN 1600 30 2
dbfiddle using Oracle
Try this..
You have to add empno in order by clause with asc
select * from ( select e.*, row_number() over (partition by deptno order by
sal desc,empno asc ) rn
from emp e) where rn = 2;
you can use RANK(). The difference between RANK() and ROW_NUMBER() is that RANK() will give same rank for same numbers, so you will see two 2 for department 20. Then you wrap it up with another ROW_NUMBER() to grab the least EMPNO:
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
subq.EMPNO,
subq.DEPTNO,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY subq.DEPTNO ORDER BY EMPNO ASC) AS empno_rownum
FROM (
SELECT
salary.EMPNO,
salary.DEPTNO,
RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY salary.DEPTNO ORDER BY salary.SAL DESC) AS salary_rank
FROM salary
) AS subq
WHERE subq.salary_rank = 2
) AS subq2
WHERE subq2.empno_rownum = 1
And here is the result:
EMPNO DEPTNO salary_rank
7782 10 2
7788 20 2
7499 30 2
