It is often convenient in PosgreSQL to create "tables" on the fly so to refer to them, e.g.
with
selected_ids as (
select 1 as id
)
select *
from someTable
where id = (select id from selected_ids)
Is it impossible to provide multiple values as id this way? I found this answer that suggests using values for similar problem, but I have problem with translating it to the example below.
I would like to write subqueries such as
select 1 as id
union
select 2 as id
union
select 7 as id
or
select 1 as id, 'dog' as animal
union
select 7 as id, 'cat' as animal
in more condensed way, without repeating myself.
You can use arguments in the query alias:
with selected_ids(id) as (
values (1), (3), (5)
)
select *
from someTable
where id = any (select id from selected_ids)
You can also use join instead of a subquery, example:
create table some_table (id int, str text);
insert into some_table values
(1, 'alfa'),
(2, 'beta'),
(3, 'gamma');
with selected_ids(id) as (
values (1), (2)
)
select *
from some_table
join selected_ids
using(id);
id | str
----+------
1 | alfa
2 | beta
(2 rows)
You can pass id and animal field in WITH like this
with selected_ids(id,animal) as (
values (1,'dog'), (2,'cat'), (3,'elephant'),(4,'rat')--,..,.. etc
)
select *
from someTable
where id = any (select id from selected_ids)
You should use union and IN statement like this:
with
selected_ids as (
select 1 as id
union
select 2 as id
union
select 3 as id
....
)
select *
from someTable
where id in (select id from selected_ids)
after reviewing wingedpanther's idea and looking for it, you can use his idea IF those id's are continuously like this:
with
selected_ids as (
SELECT * FROM generate_series(Start,End) --(1,10) for example
)
select *
from someTable
where id in (select id from selected_ids)
If they are not continuously , the only way you can do that is by storing those ID's in a different table(maybe you have it already and if not insert it)
And then:
select *
from someTable
where id in (select id from OtherTable)

I’ve a table that looks like this:
Table A
Version,id
5060586,22285
5074515,22701
5074515,22285
7242751,22701
7242751,22285
I want to generate a new key called groupId that is inserted as my example below:
Table A
Version,id,groupId
5060586,22285,1
5074515,22701,2
5074515,22285,2
7242751,22701,2
7242751,22285,2
I want the groupId to be the same as long as the id's are the same in the different versions. So for example version 5074515 and 7242751 has the same id's so therefor the groupId will be the same. If all the id's aren't the same a new groupId should be added as it has in version 5060586.
How can i solve this specific problem in SQL oracle?
One approach is to create a unique value representing the set of ids in each version, then assign a groupid to the unique values of that, then join back to the original data.
INSERT ALL
INTO t (version,id) VALUES (5060586,22285)
INTO t (version,id) VALUES (5074515,22701)
INTO t (version,id) VALUES (5074515,22285)
INTO t (version,id) VALUES (7242751,22701)
INTO t (version,id) VALUES (7242751,22285)
SELECT 1 FROM dual;
WITH groups
AS
(
SELECT version
, LISTAGG(id,',') WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY id) AS group_text
FROM t
GROUP BY version
),
groupids
AS
(
SELECT group_text, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY group_text) AS groupid
FROM groups
GROUP BY group_text
)
SELECT t.*, groupids.groupid
FROM t
INNER JOIN groups ON t.version = groups.version
INNER JOIN groupids ON groups.group_text = groupids.group_text;
dbfiddle.uk
You can use:
UPDATE tableA t
SET group_id = ( SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT id)
FROM TableA x
WHERE x.Version <= t.version );
Which, for the sample data:
CREATE TABLE TableA (
Version NUMBER,
id NUMBER,
group_id NUMBER
);
INSERT INTO TableA (Version, id)
SELECT 5060586,22285 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 5074515,22701 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 5074515,22285 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 7242751,22701 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 7242751,22285 FROM DUAL;
Then, after the update:
SELECT * FROM tablea;
Outputs:
VERSION
ID
GROUP_ID
5060586
22285

5074515
22701

5074515

I have a SQL Table called "category" looks like this
id | category
--------------
1 | 3,2
2 | 1
3 | 4,3,2
4 | 2,1
5 | 1,4
6 | 2,3,4
There are multiple category id's in the column "category", I need to find the count of an particular category values.
Current method I am using is:
select count(distinct(Category)) AS coldatacount from table_name
It gives the count of all the distinct values WHERE as I need to get
the count of all the particular category_id's separately.
if you are trying to get the Category Ids in comma delimited, you can use the string_split function to get distinct category_id
with cte as (
select 1 as id, '3,2' as category union all
select 2, '1' union all
select 3, '4,3,2' union all
select 4, '2,1' union all
select 5, '1,4' union all
select 6, '2,3,4'
)select count(distinct(value)) as category from cte
cross apply string_split(cte.category, ',');
I assumed that #neeraj04 may be looking for count of all Id in the category, continuing with #METAL code:
CREATE TABLE YourTable
(
Id INT IDENTITY,
[Category] VARCHAR(50)
);
INSERT YourTable VALUES ('3,2'), ('1'), ('4,3,2'), ('2,1'), ('1,4'), ('2,3,4');
SELECT CAST(value AS INT) AS category -- Value is string ouptut
, COUNT([value]) AS IdCount
FROM YourTable yt
CROSS APPLY string_split(yt.Category, ',')
GROUP BY [value]
ORDER BY category;
This is a horrible data model. You should not be storing multiple values in a string. You should not be storing numbers as strings.
Sometimes we are stuck with other people's really, really bad decisions. One approach is to split the string and count:
select t.*, cnt
from t cross apply
(select count(*) as cnt
from string_split(t.category) s
) s;
The other is to count commas:
select t.*,
(1 + len(t.category) - len(replace(t.category, ',', '')) as num_elements
Select Count(Value) from (Select Value from Table_Name a Cross Apply
string_split(a.Category, ','))ab Where Value=1
Merge three tables in a Select query by rule 3, 2, 1 records from each table as follows:
TableA: ID, FieldA, FieldB, FieldC,....
TableB: ID, FieldA, FieldB, FieldC,....
TableC: ID, FieldA, FieldB, FieldC,....
ID : auto number in each table
FieldA will be unique in all three tables.
I am looking for a Select query to merge three tables as follows:
TOP three records from TableA sorted by ID
TOP two records from TableB sorted by ID
TOP 1 record from TableC sorted by ID
Repeat this until select all records from all three tables.
If some table has fewer records or does not meet the criteria, ignore that and continue with others.
My attempt:
I did it totally through programming way, like cursors and If conditions inside a SQL Server stored procedure.
It makes delay.
This requires a formula that takes row numbers from each table and transforms it into a series of integers that skips the desired values.
In the query below, I am adding some CTE for the sake of shortening the formula. The real magic is in the UNION. Also, I am adding an additional field for your control. Feel free to get rid of it.
WITH A_Aux as (
SELECT 'A' As FromTable, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ID) AS RowNum, TableA.*
FROM TableA
), B_Aux AS (
SELECT 'B' As FromTable, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ID) AS RowNum, TableB.*
FROM TableB
), C_Aux AS (
SELECT 'C' As FromTable, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (Order BY ID) AS RowNum, TableC.*
FROM TableC
)
SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT RowNum+3*FLOOR((RowNum-1)/3) As ColumnForOrder, A_Aux.* FROM A_Aux
UNION ALL
SELECT 3+RowNum+4*FLOOR((RowNum-1)/2), B_Aux.* FROM B_Aux
UNION ALL
SELECT 6*RowNum, C_Aux.* FROM C_Aux
) T
ORDER BY ColumnForOrder
PS: note the pattern Offset + RowNum + (6-N) * Floor((RowNum-1)/N) to group N records together (it of course simplifies a lot for TableC).
PPS: I don't have a SQL server at hand to test it. Let me know if there is a syntax error.
You may try this..
GO
select * into #temp1 from (select * from table1) as t1
select * into #temp2 from (select * from table2) as t2
select * into #temp3 from (select * from table3) as t3
select * into #final from (select col1, col2, col3 from #temp1 where 1=0) as tb
declare #i int
set #i=1
while( (select COUNT(*) from #temp1)>#i)
Begin
;with ct1 as (
select ROW_NUMBER() over (order by id) as Slno, * from #temp1
),ct2 as (
select ROW_NUMBER() over (order by id) as Slno, * from #temp2

select ROW_NUMBER() over (order by id) as Slno, * from #temp3
),cfinal as (
select top 3 * from #temp1
union all
select top 2 * from #temp2
union all
select top 1 * from #temp3
)
insert into #final ( col1 , col2, col3 )
select col1, col2, col3 from cfinal
delete from #temp1 where id in (select top 3 ID from #temp1)
delete from #temp2 where id in (select top 2 ID from #temp2)
delete from #temp3 where id in (select top 1 ID from #temp3)
set #i = #i+1
End
Select * from #final
Drop table #temp1

First create temp table for all 3 tables with each insert delete the inserted record and this will result you the desired result, if nothing is missing from my side.
Please see to this if this works.
There is not a lot of information to go with here, but I assume you can use UNION to combine multiple statements.
SELECT * TableA ORDER BY ID DESC OFFSET 3 ROWS
UNION
SELECT * TableB ORDER BY ID DESC OFFSET 2 ROWS
UNION
SELECT * TableC ORDER BY ID DESC OFFSET 1 ROWS
Execute and see if this works.
/AF
From my understanding, I create three temp tables as ta, tb, tc.
select * into #ta from (
select 'A' a
union all
select 'A' a
union all
select 'A' a
union all
select 'A' a
union all
select 'A' a
union all
select 'A' a
union all
select 'A' a
) a
select * into #tb from (
select 'B' b
union all
select 'B'
union all
select 'B'
union all
select 'B'
union all
select 'B'
) b
select * into #tc from (
select 'C' c
union all
select 'C'
union all
select 'C'
union all
select 'C'
union all
select 'C'
) c
If tables match you tables, then the output looks like A,A,A,B,B,C,A,A,A,B,B,C,A,B,C,C,C
T-SQL
declare #TAC int = (select count (*) from #ta) -- Table A Count = 7
declare #TBC int = (select count (*) from #tb) -- Table B Count = 5
declare #TAR int = #TAC % 3 -- Table A Reminder = 1
declare #TBR int = #TBC % 2 -- Table B Reminder = 1
declare #TAQ int = (#TAC - #TAR) / 3 -- Table A Quotient = (7 - 1) / 3 = 2, is will passed on NTILE

declare #TBQ int = (#TBC - #TBR) / 2 -- Table B Quotient = (5 - 1) / 2 = 2, is will passed on NTILE
-- So we gonna split as two group (11), (22)
select * from (
select *, NTILE (#TAQ) over ( order by a) FirstOrder, 1 SecondOrder from (
select top (#TAC - #TAR) * from #ta order by a
) ta -- 6 rows are obtained out of 7.
union all
select *, #TAQ + 1, 1 from (
select top (#TAR) * from #ta order by a desc

union all
select *, NTILE (#TBQ) over ( order by b), 2 from (
select top (#TBC - #TBR) * from #tb order by b
) tb
union all
select *, #TBQ + 1, 2 from (
select top (#TBR) * from #tb order by b desc
) tb
union all
select *, ROW_NUMBER () over (order by c), 3 from #tc
) abc order by FirstOrder, SecondOrder
Let me explain the T-SQL:
Before that, FYR: NTILE and Row Number
Get the count.
Find the Quotient which will pass to NTILE function.
Order by the NTILE value and static.
Note:
I am using SQL Server 2017.
If T-SQL works fine, then you need to change the column in order by <yourcolumn>.
I have two tables , table 1 and table 2.
The fields of table 1 are :
book,pen,pencil,bag
The fields of table 2 are :
car,van,book,bike,pencil
When I run the query I want the query to ignore the duplicate or common fields and return the other field.
The output should be as follows,
car,van,bike,pen,bag
Perhaps:
SELECT x.thing FROM
(
SELECT thing FROM dbo.Table1
UNION ALL
SELECT thing FROM dbo.Table2
) X
GROUP BY x.thing
Having Count(*) = 1
Demo
However, this will also remove items that are duplicates in their table which might or might not be desired.
Have you tried sth like this:
delete form X
where (car =
Select distinct car
from X
where x);
distinct--> return the differents values.
try this one:
declare #table1 table (col1 varchar(max))
declare #table2 table (col1 varchar(max))
insert into #table1 values
('book'),('pen'),('pencil'),('bag')
insert into #table2 values ('car'),('van'),('book'),('bike'),('pencil')
;with cte
as (
select COUNT(1) as total_item, col1 from (
select col1 from #table1
union all
select col1 from #table2
)a group by col1
)
select col1 from cte where total_item = 1
WITH uniontables AS (
SELECT NULL AS car,
NULL AS van,
book,
NULL AS bike,
pen,
pencil,
bag
FROM [Table 1 ]
UNION
SELECT car,
van,
book,
bike,
NULL AS pen,
pencil,
NULL AS bag
FROM [Table 2 ] )
SELECT DISTINCT * FROM uniontables
Is it possible to create a composite key in sql 2000
code id
abc 1
abc 2
abc 3
def 1
def 2
ghi 1
where the id restarts the count at each change of code. I need the numbering to be exactly like that either by creating a table or other SELECT statement trickery.

Need Query Help
Here is one way to retrieve this data at runtime, without having to actually store it in the table, which is incredibly cumbersome to try and maintain. I'm using a #temp table here but you can pretend #a is your permanent table. As is, this will support up to 256 duplicates. If you need more, it can be adjusted.
CREATE TABLE #a(code VARCHAR(32));
INSERT #a SELECT 'abc'
UNION ALL SELECT 'abc'
UNION ALL SELECT 'abc'
UNION ALL SELECT 'def'
UNION ALL SELECT 'def'
UNION ALL SELECT 'ghi';
GO
SELECT x.code, id = y.number FROM
(
SELECT code, maxid = COUNT(*) FROM #a GROUP BY code
) AS x
CROSS JOIN
(
SELECT DISTINCT number FROM master..spt_values
WHERE number BETWEEN 1 AND 256
) AS y
WHERE x.maxid >= y.number;
DROP TABLE #a;
You can try this
INSERT INTO TABLENAME (code, id) VALUES( 'code',
(Select ISNULL(MAX(id), 0) FROM TableName where code = 'code')+1)
