How to traverse tree from some child nodes up to specific node in Oracle (not to root node)?
We have input: a specific node A, a list child nodes.
Output expected: subtree from node A to all the child node of A in the input list.
We have write some query, but wonder if we could have a better way to do that.
Thank for any help!

SELECT *

START WITH code IN ('1112', '1114', '1115', '211')
CONNECT BY PRIOR code_ct = code
INTERSECT
SELECT *
FROM table_name
START WITH code = '11'
CONNECT BY PRIOR code = code_ct;
/*
--test improving query
SELECT SUBSTR(SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH(code , '_'), 2) AS path
FROM table_name
WHERE code = '11'
START WITH code IN ('1112', '1114', '1115', '221')
CONNECT BY PRIOR code_ct = code;
*/
Use:
SELECT distinct *
FROM table_name
START WITH code IN ('1112', '1114', '1115', '221')
CONNECT BY PRIOR code_ct = code and prior code <> '11'
order by 1;
Since INTERSECT operator removes duplicates from the final resultset, then DISTINCT must be used in order to get the same result as from the query with intersect.

In the Oracle database, I have string values (VARCHAR2) like 1,4,7,8. The number represents as 1=car, 2= bus, 3=BB, 4=SB, 5=Ba, 6=PA, 7=HB, and 8 =G
and want to convert the above-said example to "car,SB,HB,G" in my query results
I tried to use "Decode" but it does not work. Please advise how to make it works. Would appreciate.
Thanks`
Initially, I have used the following query:
Select Clientid as C#, vehicletypeExclusions as vehicle from
clients
The sample of outcomes are:
C# Vehicle
20 1,19,20,23,24,7,5
22 1,19,20,23,24,7,5
I also tried the following that gives me the null value of vehicles:
Select Clientid as C#, Decode (VEHICLETYPEEXCLUSIONS, '1', 'car',
'3','bus', '5','ba' ,'7','HB', '8','G'
, '9','LED1102', '10','LED1104', '13','LED8-2',
'14','Flip4-12', '17','StAT1003', '19','Taxi-Min', '20','Tax_Sed',
'21','Sup-veh' , '22','T-DATS', '23','T-Mini',
'24','T-WAM') as vehicle_Ex from clients >

Using the function f_subst from https://stackoverflow.com/a/68537479/429100 :
create or replace
function f_subst(str varchar2, template varchar2, subst sys.odcivarchar2list) return varchar2
as
res varchar2(32767):=str;
begin
for i in 1..subst.count loop
res:=replace(res, replace(template,'%d',i), subst(i));
end loop;
return res;
end;

I've replaced ora_name_list_t (nested table) with sys.odcivarchar2list (varray) to make this example easier, but I would suggest to create your own collection for example create type varchar2_table as table of varchar2(4000);
Example:
select
f_subst(
'1,4,7,8'
,'%d'
,sys.odcivarchar2list('car','bus','BB','SB','Ba','PA','HB','G')
) s
from dual;
S

car,SB,HB,G
Assume you have a lookup table (associating the numeric codes with descriptions) and a table of input strings, which I called sample_inputs in my tests, as shown below:
create table lookup (code, descr) as
select 1, 'car' from dual union all
select 2, 'bus' from dual union all
select 3, 'BB' from dual union all
select 4, 'SB' from dual union all
select 5, 'Ba' from dual union all
select 6, 'PA' from dual union all
select 7, 'HB' from dual union all
select 8, 'G' from dual
;
create table sample_inputs (str) as
select '1,4,7,8' from dual union all
select null from dual union all
select '3' from dual union all
select '5,5,5' from dual union all
select '6,2,8' from dual
;
One strategy for solving your problem is to split the input - slightly modified to make it a JSON array, so that we can use json_table to split it - then join to the lookup table and re-aggregate.
select s.str, l.descr_list
from sample_inputs s cross join lateral
( select listagg(descr, ',') within group (order by ord) as descr_list
from json_table( '[' || str || ']', '$[*]'
columns code number path '$', ord for ordinality)
join lookup l using (code)
) l
;

I have following source data in VARCHAR2 format

What is the formula to transfer it to NUMBER?
With the following
INSERT INTO table_b.column_b
SELECT
TO_NUMBER (column_a,'9999999999D9999999999999999999999',
'nls_numeric_characters= ''.,''') as my_numbers
FROM table_a.column_a;
I get an error
ORA-01722: invalid number error message.
I assume that it is because rows starting with comma e.g (,125).
In destination table I need in number format the data like this
0,00100000004749745
0,100000001490116
0,125
0,200000002980232
0,25
0,439999997615814
0,5
0
1
...
Also tried to put zero '0' in front of comma and them change it to number with
Select
column_a,
TO_NUMBER (column_a,'9999D9999999999999999999999',
'nls_numeric_characters= ''.,''') as my_number
from
(SELECT DISTINCT
'0'|| column_a
FROM table_a.column_a
WHERE column_a LIKE (',125')
);
but the result was
0,125 125
As Vasyl stated, your nls_numeric_characters needs to be adjusted. The query below demonstrates how to convert the string to a number.
WITH
my_numbers (column_a)
AS
(SELECT ',00100000004749745' FROM DUAL
UNION ALL
SELECT ',100000001490116' FROM DUAL
UNION ALL
SELECT ',125' FROM DUAL
UNION ALL
SELECT ',200000002980232' FROM DUAL
UNION ALL
SELECT ',25' FROM DUAL
UNION ALL
SELECT ',439999997615814' FROM DUAL

SELECT ',5' FROM DUAL

'nls_numeric_characters= '', ''') AS column_a_as_number
FROM my_numbers n;
Looks like you use wrong nls_numeric_characters values. Try to replace 'nls_numeric_characters=''.,''' with 'nls_numeric_characters='', '''
Explanation: Your nls_numeric_characters defined . as a decimal delimiter and , as a group delimiter, but, according to your example, you assume that the decimal delimiter is ,
My Input pattern like:
WITH data_tab AS (
SELECT '1540_INPUTTER' user_name FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAZZ25_UNKNOWN' FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAKIB17_OS_WIN10' FROM dual
)
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR(user_name,…………………….....) AS st_user_name from data_tab
Desired Output:
ST_USER_NAME
------------
INPUTTER
RAZZ25
RAKIB17
One way to do that is
WITH data_tab AS (
SELECT '1540_INPUTTER' user_name FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAZZ25_UNKNOWN' FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAKIB17_OS_WIN10' FROM dual
)
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR(user_name,'_([^_]*)', 1, 1, 'i', 1) AS st_user_name
FROM data_tab;
Another way to do it is to define the complete structure of the string
and extract the second group:
WITH data_tab AS (
SELECT '1540_INPUTTER' user_name FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAZZ25_UNKNOWN' FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAKIB17_OS_WIN10' FROM dual
)
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR(user_name,'(\d{4}_)([A-Z0-9]+)(_)?(\w+)?',1,1,'i',2)
AS st_user_name
FROM data_tab;
Check This.
WITH data_tab AS (
SELECT '1540_INPUTTER' user_name FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAZZ25_UNKNOWN' FROM dual
UNION SELECT '1540_RAKIB17_OS_WIN10' FROM dual
)
SELECT
case when INSTR(SUBSTR(user_name, INSTR(user_name, '_')+1, length(user_name)- INSTR(user_name, '_')+1 ),'_') =0 then
SUBSTR(user_name, INSTR(user_name, '_')+1, length(user_name)- INSTR(user_name, '_')+1 )
else
substr((SUBSTR(user_name, INSTR(user_name, '_')+1, length(user_name)- INSTR(user_name, '_')+1 )), 1, INSTR(SUBSTR(user_name, INSTR(user_name, '_')+1, length(user_name)- INSTR(user_name, '_')+1 ),'_') -1)
end as user_name
from data_tab
I want to do this please
select round(9.100000, 3) from dual
Result = 9.100
select round(12679.1000001, 3) from dual
Result = 12679.100
Thanks
You can do it with to_char method :
select to_char(9.100000, '999.999') from dual
select to_char(12679.1000001, '99999.999') from dual
Example with a table rather than with constant values:
with temp as (
select 9.100000 as num from dual
union
select 12679.1000001 as num from dual
union
select -20.2356 as num from dual
)
select to_char(num,'99999.999') from temp
I have a field as name in a table with names inserted without spaces. Eg: "MarkJones".
Now I want to create a space between the first and lastname of a person within the same column to be displayed as "Mark Jones" using Oracle functions.
I have tried this query
SELECT instr('MarkJones', '%||Upper(*)||%') AS substr1,
SUBSTR('MarkJones', instr('MarkJones', '%lower(*)upper(*)%')) AS substr2,
substr1||' '||substr2
FROM dual
;
However, this query is not working. I want to try it using oracle functions including translate, substr and instr, but no regular expressions.
This approach works for the simple example given, but fails if the name has more than 2 uppercase letters in it. If this is coursework as expected, maybe the requirements are not too difficult for the names to parse as we all know that is fraught with heartache and you can never account for 100% of names from all nationalities.
Anyway my approach was to move through the string looking for uppercase letters and if found replace them with a space followed by the letter. I used the ASCII function to test their ascii value to see if they were an uppercase character. The CONNECT BY construct (needed to loop through each character of the string) returns each character in its own row so LISTAGG() was employed to reassemble back into a string and ltrim to remove the leading space.
I suspect if this is coursework it may be using some features you should not be using yet. At least you should get out of this the importance of receiving and/or giving complete specifications!
SQL> with tbl(name) as (
select 'MarkJones' from dual
)
select ltrim(listagg(case
when ascii(substr(name, level, 1)) >= 65 AND
ascii(substr(name, level, 1)) <= 90 THEN
' ' || substr(name, level, 1)
else substr(name, level, 1)
end, '')
within group (order by level)) fixed
from tbl
connect by level <= length(name);
FIXED
------------------------------------
Mark Jones
When you are ready, here's the regexp_replace version anyway :-)
Find and "remember" the 2nd occurrence of an uppercase character then replace it with a space and the "remembered" uppercase character.
SQL> with tbl(name) as (
select 'MarkJones' from dual
)
select regexp_replace(name, '([A-Z])', ' \1', 1, 2) fixed
from tbl;
FIXED

Not sure we should go against #Alex Poole advice, but it looks like an homework assignment.
So my idea is to point the second Upper Case. Its doable if you create a set of the upper cases, on which you valuate the position in input string iStr. Then if you're allowed to use length, you can use this position to build firstName too:
SELECT substr(iStr, 1, length(iStr)-length(substr(iStr, instr(iStr, u)))) firstName
, substr(iStr, instr(iStr, u)) lastName
, substr(iStr, 1, length(iStr)-length(substr(iStr, instr(iStr, u)))) ||' '||
substr(iStr, instr(iStr, u)) BINGO
FROM ( select 'MarkJones' iStr from dual
union all select 'SomeOtherNames' from dual -- 2 u-cases gives 2 different results
union all select 'SomeOtherOols' from dual -- only one result
union all select 'AndJim' from dual
union all select 'JohnLenon' from dual
union all select 'LemingWay' from dual
),
( select 'A' U from dual
union all select 'B' from dual
union all select 'C' from dual
union all select 'D' from dual
union all select 'E' from dual
union all select 'F' from dual
union all select 'G' from dual
union all select 'H' from dual
union all select 'I' from dual
union all select 'J' from dual
union all select 'K' from dual
union all select 'L' from dual
union all select 'M' from dual
union all select 'N' from dual
union all select 'O' from dual
union all select 'P' from dual
union all select 'Q' from dual

union all select 'S' from dual

union all select 'U' from dual
union all select 'V' from dual
union all select 'W' from dual
union all select 'X' from dual
union all select 'Y' from dual
union all select 'Z' from dual
) upper_cases
where instr(iStr, U) > 1
