I would like to combine two tables and obtain total# of the name by count() and group by functions.
Table_1 is shown below as;
name branch sports player no
---- ----- ------ --------
Mike 120 basketball 15
David 110 soccer 18
Table_2 is shown below as;
jersey color player no height
---------- --------- ------
Blue 15 182
Green 18 174
I tried to combine two tables by inner joins and count them based on the name such as;
SELECT name, branch, sports,
FROM TABLE_1
INNER JOIN TABLE_2
ON
TABLE_1.player no = TABLE_2.player no
COUNT(name) AS TOTAL
GROUP BY name, branch, sports, jersey color, player no, height
output should be
name branch player no jersey color height
---- ------ ------- -------- ----
Mike 120 15 Blue 182
David 110 18 Green 174
Mike 120 15 Blue 182
Mike 120 15 Blue 182
David 110 18 Green 174
After count(name)
name branch player no jersey color height Total
---- ------ ------- -------- ---- -----
Mike 120 15 Blue 182 3
David 110 18 Green 174 2
I have been pondering why I can not make this works?
You are essentially trying to combine the results one after the other, not side by side. This calls for a union [all], not a join:
SELECT name, COUNT(*)
FROM (SELECT name FROM table1
UNION ALL
SELECT name FROM table2) t
GROUP BY name

So, i have an task in uni to get max stipend in each faculty from a table with stipends.
Faculty table is:

I have tried many variations of queries, i think that I even tried all the possible combinations of joins, but i cannot achieve the neccessary result.
One of my queries looked like this:
SQL> SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY surname) "Nr.",
f.faculty_name,
s.surname,
s.name,
MAX(m.stipend)
FROM faculty f, student s INNER JOIN money m ON s.id_student = m.student_id
WHERE s.faculty_id = f.id_faculty
GROUP BY f.faculty_name, s.surname, s.name
ORDER BY s.surname;
Which returned me the following result:
Nr. FACULTY_NAME SURNAME NAME MAX(M.STIPEND)
---------- ------------------------------ ------------------------- -------------------- --------------

9 rows selected.
So the goal of this task is to retrieve the maximum amount of stipend granted to a student in a certain faculty.
Can someone please tell what am I doing wrong here?
Just max amount per faculty:
SELECT
f.faculty_name,
MAX(m.stipend)
FROM
faculty f
INNER JOIN student s ON s.faculty_id = f.id_faculty
INNER JOIN money m ON s.id_student = m.student_id
GROUP BY f.faculty_name
Max amount and all other details too:
SELECT * FROM
(
SELECT
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY f.faculty_name ORDER BY m.stipend desc) rn,
f.*,
s.*,
m.*
FROM
faculty f
INNER JOIN student s ON s.faculty_id = f.id_faculty
INNER JOIN money m ON s.id_student = m.student_id
) x
WHERE x.rn = 1
Points of note:
Do not use old style joins; if you ever write one table_name, other_table_name in a FROM block, you're using old style joins. Don't do it; they became bad news about 30 years ago
When you have a max-n-per-group, you specify how finely detailed the group is. If you GROUP BY s.first_name, s.last_name, f.faculty_name then your groups are "every unique combination of firstname/lastname/faculty, so the only way you'll get multiple items in your group is if there are two John Smiths in Mathematics. If the group is to be the whole of mathematics, then the faculty name (and anything else that is uniquely related 1:1 to it, like the faculty ID) is all that you can put in your group. Anything not in a group must be in an aggregation, like MAX
When you want other details too, you either group and max the data and then join this groupmaxed data back to the original data to use it as a filter, or you use an approach like here where you use a row_number or rank, with a partition (which is like an autojoined grouped summary). There is no group here; the row numbering acts like a group because it restarts from 1 every different faculty and proceeds incrementally as stipend decreses. This means that the highest stipend is always in row number 1.
Unlike using a groupmax that you join back to get the detail, the row_number route does not produce duplicate rows with tied-for-highest stipends
I have below table

60 2013 4 Post Graduates 9 M.com 2013 98.5 2 Commerce
i wanted to get the unique record of max coursecode, the output should be
userid comp_dd coursecode qualification course_id course passyear totalmarks func stream
----------- ----------- ----------- --------------- ----------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------- -----------------
60 2013 4 Post Graduates 9 M.com 2013 98.5 2 Commerce
There will be many records of the different userids
I think you want:
select t.*
from t
where t.coursecode = (select max(t2.coursecode)
from t t2
where t2.userid = t.userid
);
You can also do this with window functions, but the correlated subquery is often faster with the right index, which would be on (userid, coursecode).
Sort the table by coursecode descending and get the 1st row:
select top 1 *
from tablename
order by coursecode desc
This will work only if there are no duplicates in the column coursecode since it will fetch only 1 row, but I guess this is the case because you say:
i wanted to get the unique record of max coursecode
This is my table structure in sql-server:
id Marks
---------- -----------
AAA 50
KKK 87
KKK 89
BBB 48
CCC 54
AAA 52
DDD 55
BBB 60
XXX 99
This is the desired output:
Name attempts Max Mark
------- ---------------- ------------
AAA 2 52
kkk 2 89
BBB 2 60
CCC 1 54
DDD 1 55
XXX 1 99
I've tried this but it seems incorrect:
SELECT
name,
count(*) as attempts,
max(marks)
FROM table_name
GROUP BY name, attempts, max_marks
Try this one:
SELECT
id AS Name,
count(id) AS attempts,
max(Marks) AS Max_Mark
FROM table_name
GROUP BY id
You were on the right track just added too much to grouping field,
SELECT id AS name
,COUNT(*) AS Attempts
,MAX(marks) as MaxMarks
FROM table_name
GROUP BY id
If your column is already part of aggregate function such as MAX or COUNT it does not need to be included in GROUP BY clause
I having trouble with this query
it is executing quit well but I cannot make out
how is this select statement working.
Any help or explanation on this problem will be appreciated ..

Query
select * from emp
where eid
IN (select eid from works
where cid=(select cid from company
where city=emp.city))
why not use this query with joins and its easy to understand then a bunch of subqueries.
select * from emp
inner join works on works.eid = emp.eid
inner join company on company.city=emp.city
Explanation:
1.select cid from company where city=emp.city
Here you are getting city id regarding cities which are same in emp and company
2.
select eid from works
where cid=(select cid from company
where city=emp.city)
Here you getting collection of id's from works table which cid is same in emp and company
3.
select * from emp
where eid
IN (select eid from works
where cid=(select cid from company
where city=emp.city))
here you are getting all records based on emp id's whose cities are same in emp and city
I have a table with IDs and primary information. I also have two delta tables keyed on ID and date of change. I need to build a view that merges these three tables together indicating all changes over time.
Main Table:
ID Name
-- ------------------
1 Bob Jones
2 Dave Smith
First Attribute Table:
ID Date Attr1
-- ---------- -----
1 01/01/2013 25
1 02/15/2013 33
1 02/17/2013 47
1 03/02/2013 58
2 02/01/2013 1
...
Second Attribute Table
ID Date Attr2
-- ---------- -----
1 01/01/2013 ABC
1 01/05/2013 DEF
1 01/15/2013 RST
1 02/10/2013 XYZ
1 02/15/2013 Foo
1 03/05/2013 Blah
2 02/01/2013 Two
...
Based on that data, for Bob Jones, I need the view to return the following:
ID Name Date Attr1 Attr2
-- ----------- ---------- ----- -----
1 Bob Jones 01/01/2013 25 ABC
1 Bob Jones 01/05/2013 25 DEF
1 Bob Jones 01/15/2013 25 RST
1 Bob Jones 02/10/2013 25 XYZ
1 Bob Jones 02/15/2013 33 Foo
1 Bob Jones 02/17/2013 47 Foo
1 Bob Jones 03/02/2013 58 Foo
1 Bob Jones 03/05/2013 58 Blah
I tried outer joining the attribute tables to get all change values ordered by date and then used an outer join on the entire query with itself to get "prior" records:
with qry as (
select
rownum = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY m.ID, a.DATE),
m.ID,
m.Name,
a.DATE,
a.Attr1,
a.Attr2
from Main m
inner join (
select
COALESCE(a1.ID, a2.ID) as ID,
COALESCE(a1.LOAD_DATE, a2.LOAD_DATE) as LOAD_DATE,
a1.Attr1,
a2.Attr2
from Attributes1 a1
full outer join Attributes2 a2
on (a1.ID = a2.ID and a1.DATE = a2.DATE)
) a on (a.ID = m.ID)
)
select
COALESCE(qry.ID, prev.ID) as ID,
COALESCE(qry.Name, prev.Name) as Name,
COALESCE(qry.DATE, prev.DATE) as DATE,
COALESCE(qry.Attr1, prev.Attr1) as Attr1,
COALESCE(qry.Attr2, prev.Attr2) as Attr2,
from qry
left join qry prev
on (prev.rownum = qry.rownum - 1)
order by ID, DATE
However, that doesn't work when one attribute table changes quicker than the other because the attributes that didn't change are null in the results of the attribute table join and if two nulls show up back-to-back, the coalesce will return a null when I need the last non-null value that was in that column.
Can this even be done in a view in SQL Server 2012?
