I have to get a specific output format from my tables.
Let's say I have a simple table with 2 columns name and value.
table T1
+---------------+------------------+
| Name | Value |
+---------------+------------------+
| stuff1 | 1 |
| stuff1 | 1 |
| stuff2 | 2 |
| stuff3 | 1 |
| stuff2 | 4 |
| stuff2 | 2 |
| stuff3 | 4 |
+---------------+------------------+
I know the values are in the interval 1-4. I group it by name and value and count number of the same rows as Number and get the following table:
table T2
+---------------+------------------+--------+
| Name | Value | Number |
+---------------+------------------+--------+
| stuff1 | 1 | 2 |
| stuff2 | 2 | 2 |
| stuff3 | 1 | 1 |
| stuff3 | 4 | 1 |
+---------------+------------------+--------+
Here is the part when I need your help! What should I do if I want to get these format?
table T3
+---------------+------------------+--------+
| Name | Value | Number |
+---------------+------------------+--------+
| stuff1 | 1 | 2 |
| stuff1 | 2 | 0 |
| stuff1 | 3 | 0 |
| stuff1 | 4 | 0 |
| stuff2 | 1 | 0 |
| stuff2 | 2 | 2 |
| stuff2 | 3 | 0 |
| stuff2 | 4 | 0 |
| stuff3 | 1 | 1 |
| stuff3 | 2 | 0 |
| stuff3 | 3 | 0 |
| stuff3 | 4 | 1 |
+---------------+------------------+--------+
Thanks for any suggestions!
You start with a cross join to generate all possible combinations and then left-join in the results from your existing query:
select n.name, v.value, coalesce(nv.cnt, 0) as "Number"
from (select distinct name from table t) n cross join
(select distinct value from table t) v left outer join
(select name, value, count(*) as cnt
from table t
group by name, value
) nv
on nv.name = n.name and nv.value = v.value;
Variation on the theme.
Differences between Gordon Linoff and Owen existing answers.
I prefer GROUP BY to get the Names rather than a DISTINCT. This may have better performance in a case like this. (See Rob Farley's still relevant article.)
I explode the subqueries into a series of CTEs for clarity.
I use table T2 as the question now labels the group results set instead of showing that as as subquery.
WITH PossibleValue AS (
SELECT 1 Value
UNION ALL
SELECT Value + 1
FROM PossibleValue
WHERE Value < 4
),
Name AS (
SELECT Name
FROM T1
GROUP BY Name
),
NameValue AS (
SELECT Name
,Value
FROM Name
CROSS JOIN
PossibleValue
)
SELECT nv.Name
,nv.Value
,ISNULL(T2.Number,0) Number
FROM NameValue nv
LEFT JOIN
T2 ON nv.Name = T2.Name
AND nv.Value = T2.Value
Yet another solution, this time using a Table Value Constructor in a CTE to build a table of name value combinations.
WITH value AS
( SELECT DISTINCT t.name, v.value
FROM T1 AS t
CROSS JOIN (VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4)) AS v (value)
)
SELECT v.name AS 'Name', v.value AS 'Value', COUNT(t.name) AS 'Number'
FROM value AS v
LEFT JOIN T1 AS t ON t.value = v.value AND t.name = v.name
GROUP BY v.name, v.value, t.name;

Is it possible for foxpro in sql statement to add and fill a winners_name column base on condition maximum score and id with different names.
I have created a sql statement but it was not supported by foxpro, is there other alternative to do this rather than using a loop (I like sql statement for faster result even in 50k row lines)
SELECT * , ;
(SELECT TOP 1 doc_name FROM Table1 as b1 WHERE ALLTRIM(b1.id) = a.id ORDER BY b1.score DESC, b1.id) as WINNERS_NAME ;
FROM Table1 as a
I have only 1 table, with columns [ name, id, score ]
A sample table would be like this
NAME | ID | SCORE |
BEN | 101 | 5 |
KEN | 101 | 2 |
ZEN | 101 | 3 |
JEN | 103 | 4 |
REN | 103 | 3 |
LEN | 102 | 5 |
PEN | 102 | 4 |
ZEN | 102 | 3 |
The result would be like this (winners_name is tag on ID)
NAME | ID | SCORE | WINNERS_NAME
BEN | 101 | 5 | BEN
KEN | 101 | 2 | BEN
ZEN | 101 | 3 | BEN
JEN | 103 | 4 | PEN
REN | 103 | 3 | PEN
LEN | 102 | 5 | LEN
PEN | 103 | 5 | PEN
ZEN | 102 | 3 | LEN
Try this approach:
SELECT
a.NAME,
a.ID,
a.SCORE,
b.WINNERS_NAME
FROM Table1 a
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT t1.ID, t1.NAME AS WINNERS_NAME
FROM
(
SELECT ID, SCORE, MIN(NAME) AS NAME
FROM Table1
GROUP BY ID, SCORE
) t1
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT ID, MAX(SCORE) AS MAX_SCORE
FROM Table1
GROUP BY ID
) t2
ON t1.ID = t2.ID AND
t1.SCORE = t2.MAX_SCORE
) b
ON a.ID = b.ID
ORDER BY
a.ID;
Follow the link below for a demo running in MySQL (though the syntax should still work on FoxPro):

(query access)
This is the table structure:
+-----+--------+--------+
| id | name | sub1 |
+-----+--------+--------+
| 1 | ABC | 6.27% |
| 2 | ABC | 7.47% |
| 3 | PQR | 3.39% |
| 4 | PQR | 2.21% |
+-----+--------+--------+
I want to subtract Sub1
Output should be:
+-----+--------+---------+------------------------------------+
| id | name | sub1 | |
+-----+--------+---------+------------------------------------+
| 1 | ABC | 6.27% | 0 First Rec no need Subtract |
| 2 | ABC | 7.47% | 1.2% <=(7.47-6.27) |
| 3 | PQR | 3.39% | 0 First Rec no need Subtract |
| 4 | PQR | 2.21% | -1.18% <=(2.21-3.39) |
+-----+--------+---------+------------------------------------+
Thank you so much.
If you can guarantee consecutive id values, then the following presents an alternative:
select t.*, nz(t.sub1-u.sub1,0) as sub2
from YourTable t left join YourTable u on t.name = u.name and t.id = u.id+1
Change YourTable to the name of your table.
This is painful, but you can do:
select t.*,
(select top 1 t2.sub1
from t as t2
where t2.name = t.name and t2.id < t.id
order by t2.id desc
) as prev_sub1
from t;
This gives the previous value or NULL for the first row. You can just use - for the subtraction.
An index on (name, id) would help a bit with performance. However, if you can upgrade to a better database, you can then just use lag().
For example, I have a table below
+-----------+-------+------------+
| Id | a| b|
+-----------+-------+------------+
| 1 | 6 | 20 |
| 1 | 4 | 55 |
| 1 | 9 | 56 |
| 1 | 2 | 67 |
| 1 | 7 | 80 |
| 1 | 5 | 66 |
| 1 | 3 | 33 |
| 1 | 8 | 34 |
| 1 | 1 | 52 |
I want the output would be like below by using Impala
+-----------+-------------------+-----------------------------+
| Id | a | b |
+-----------+-------------------+-----------------------------+
| 1 | 6,4,9,2,7,5,3,8,1 | 20,55,56,67,80,66,33,34,52 |
+-----------+-------------------+-----------------------------+
In Impala, I have used
SELECT Id,
group_concat(DISTINCT a) AS a,
group_concat(DISTINCT b) AS b
FROM table GROUP BY Id
It will always get Syntax error. Just wondering is that we are not allowed to use multi group_concat for one query in Impala? or not allow to use multi Distinct for one query?
From the documentation for GROUP_CONCAT:
You cannot apply the DISTINCT operator to the argument of this function.
But, as workaround, we can use two separate subqueries to find the distinct values:
WITH cte1 AS (
SELECT Id, GROUP_CONCAT(a) AS a
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT Id, a FROM yourTable) t
GROUP BY Id
),
cte2 AS (
SELECT Id, GROUP_CONCAT(b) AS b
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT Id, b FROM yourTable) t
GROUP BY Id
)
SELECT
t1.Id,
t1.a,
t2.b
FROM cte1 t1
INNER JOIN cte2 t2
ON t1.Id = t2.Id;
I have two tables in Access, Table A and Table B:
Table MasterLockInsNew:
+----+-------+----------+
| ID | Value | Date |
+----+-------+----------+
| 1 | 123 | 12/02/13 |
| 2 | 1231 | 11/02/13 |
| 4 | 1265 | 16/02/13 |
+----+-------+----------+
Table InitialPolData:
+----+-------+----------+---+
| ID | Value | Date |Type
+----+-------+----------+---+
| 1 | 123 | 12/02/13 | x |
| 2 | 1231 | 11/02/13 | x |
| 3 | 1238 | 10/02/13 | y |
| 4 | 1265 | 16/02/13 | a |
| 7 | 7649 | 18/02/13 | z |
+----+-------+----------+---+
All I want are the rows from table B for IDs not contained in A. My current code looks like this:
SELECT Distinct InitialPolData.*
FROM InitialPolData
WHERE InitialPolData.ID NOT IN (SELECT Distinct InitialPolData.ID
from InitialPolData INNER JOIN
MasterLockInsNew
ON InitialPolData.ID=MasterLockInsNew.ID);
But whenever I run this in Access it crashes!! The tables are fairly large but I don't think this is the reason.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
or try a left outer join:
SELECT b.*
FROM InitialPolData b left outer join
MasterLockInsNew a on
b.id = a.id
where
a.id is null
Simple subquery will do.
select * from InitialPolData
where id not in (
select id from MasterLockInsNew
);
Try using NOT EXISTS:
SELECT Distinct i.*
FROM InitialPolData AS i
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM MasterLockInsNew AS m
WHERE m.ID = i.ID)
I have two tables:
Table #1 - Student:
+------+-------+
|Roll | Name |
+------+-------+
| 1 | A |
| 2 | B |
| 3 | C |
+------+-------+
Table #2 - Mark:
+------+------+
| Roll | Mark |
+------+------+
| 1 | 85 |
| 3 | 95 |
+------+------+
Output needs to be:
+-------+------+-------+---------+
| Roll | Name | Mark |Position |
+-------+------+-------+---------+
| 1 | A | 85 | 2 |
| 2 | B | 0 | 3 |
| 3 | C | 95 | 1 |
+-------+------+-------+---------+
What should be the query to get the output? I think the rank function is to be used, but don't know to use it...
Use LEFT JOIN to join two tables and then use RANK().
Query
select *, Position = rank() over(
order by t.Mark desc
)
from(
select t1.Roll, t1.Name, coalesce(t2.Mark, 0) as Mark
from student t1
left join Mark t2
on t1.Roll = t2.Roll
)t
order by t.Name;
Use Left Join and Rank() function.
Query
select T1.Roll, T1.Name, isnull(T2.Mark,0) Mark, rank() over(order by mark desc) Position
from STUDENT T1 left join MARK T2
on T1.Roll = T2.Roll order by T1.Roll
