Given this:
with data_row as (select 1 as col_1 from dual)
select 'Y' as row_exists from dual where exists
(select null
from data_row
where col_1 in (2,1))
How can I get this?
Col_1 Row_exists
--------------------
1 Y
2 N
In order to get a row of output, you need a row of input. You want to get the second row with a "2", but there is no table with that value.
The approach is to generate a table that has the values that you want, and then use left outer join to find which match:
with data_row as (
select 1 as col_1
from dual
),
what_i_care_about as (
select 1 as col from dual union all
select 2 from dual
)
select wica.col,
(case when dr.col_1 is NULL then 'N' else 'Y' end) as row_exists
from what_i_care_about wica left outer join
data_row dr
on wica.col = dr.col_1;
You cannot do directly what you want -- which is to create a row for each missing value in the in list. If you have a lot of values and they are consecutive numeric, then you can use connect by or a recursive CTE to generate the values.

I have a table in SQL that is structured as follows:
Name Value1 Value2
A .2 .3
A .1 .05
A .5 .3
B .2 .4
B .1 .08
C .3 .4
C .2 .5
C .1 .3
How do I get all the Names where Value1 is less than Value2 for every row associated with a Name? In the example above, I would only want to pull out Name C.
I read this article: Select in MySQL where all rows meet a condition
but I don't think this applies to my problem, as this solution assumes you are comparing a row to fixed value.
A variant on some of the other answers, also using conditional aggregation:
SELECT Name
FROM yourTable
GROUP BY Name
HAVING SUM(CASE WHEN value1 >= value2 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) = 0;
The above query asserts that each matching name group does not have any record for which value1 is greater than or equal to value2.
You can use group by and having:
select name
from t
group by name
having count(*) = sum(case when value1 < value2 then 1 else 0 end);
There are other ways to phrase this, such as:
select distinct name
from t
where not exists (select 1 from t t2 where t2.name = t.name and t2.value2 >= t2.value1);
Or:
select name
from t
except
select name
from t
where value2 >= value1;
You can get desired result with in clause
declare #table table (name varchar(10), value1 float, value2 float)
insert #table
select 'A', '0.2', '.3'
union all
select 'A' , '.1', '.05'
union all
select 'A', '.5', '.3'
union all
select 'B', '.2', '.4'
union all
select 'B', '.1' , '.08'
union all
select 'C', '.3' , '.4'
union all
select 'C', '.2' , '.5'
union all
select 'C' , '.1' , '.3'
Use In Clause where value1<value2
select * from #table where value1<value2
and name not in ( select name from #table where value1>value2)
You can use EXIST to check if the value exist in your desired condition wherein all rows by certain name have value2 greater than value1.
SELECT *
FROM TableName a
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM TableName b
WHERE a.name = b.Name
GROUP BY b.name
HAVING COUNT(case when b.value1 < b.value2 THEN 1 END) = COUNT(*))
Here's a Demo.
This will display all rows for the valid name. However, check other answer if you only want to display distinct name.
I want to write LAG function for table column in such a way that if column value is zero it should lag value for that id if it is again zero for previous row it should LAG again until it reaches a non zero row or last row please help.Thanks in advance
Use LAG() IGNORE NULLS ... combined with a CASE statement:
LAG(
CASE COLUMN_NAME
WHEN 0
THEN NULL
ELSE COLUMN_NAME
END
) IGNORE NULLS OVER ( ORDER BY OTHER_COLUMN )
For example:
WITH DATA ( id, value ) AS (
SELECT 1, 1 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 0 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 3, 0 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 4, 2 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 5, 0 FROM DUAL
)
SELECT id,
value,
LAG(
CASE VALUE
WHEN 0
THEN NULL
ELSE VALUE
END
) IGNORE NULLS
OVER ( ORDER BY id )
AS prev_non_zero_value
FROM DATA;
Outputs:
ID VALUE PREV_NON_ZERO_VALUE
---------- ---------- -------------------
1 1
2 0 1
3 0 1
4 2 1
5 0 2
Wouldn't it be simpler to call the same table twice, (for example, call them A and B).
In B, filter out all the rows where the value equals zero, and then do a simple LAG(field,1).
Then just JOIN the two tables.
Voila!
I have a table Like this
Col1 | Col2
-----------
a | d
b | e
c | a
Now I want to create an statement to get an output like this:
First| Second
-------------------
a | Amsterdamm
b | Berlin
c | Canada
...
So far I have this consturct what is not working
SELECT *
FROM(
SELECT DISTINCT
CASE
when Col1 IS NULL then 'NA'
else Col1
END
FROM Table1
UNION
SELECT DISTINCT
CASE
when Col2 IS NULL then 'NA'
else Col2
END
FROM Table1
) AS First
,
(
SELECT DISTINCT
when First= 'a' then 'Amsterdam'
when First= 'b' then 'Berlin'
when First= 'c' then 'Canada'
) AS Second
;
can you help me with that
Sorry I have to edit my question to be more specific.
Not as familiar with DB2... I'll lookup if it has a concat function in a sec... and it does.
SELECT First, case when first = 'a' then
concat('This is a ',first)
case when first = 'b' then
concat('To Be or not to ',first)
case else
concat('This is a ',first) end as Second
FROM (
SELECT coalesce(col1, 'NA') as First
FROM Table
UNION
SELECT coalesce(col2, 'NA')
FROM table) SRC
WHERE first <> 'NA'
What this does is generate a single inline view called src with a column called first. If col1 or col2 of table are null then it substitutes NA for that value. It then concatenates first and the desired text excluding records with a first value of 'NA'
Or if you just create an inline table with the desired values and join in...
SELECT First, x.b as Second
FROM (
SELECT coalesce(col1, 'NA') as First
FROM Table
UNION
SELECT coalesce(col2, 'NA')
FROM table) SRC
INNER JOIN (select a,b
from (values ('a', 'This is a'),
('b', 'To B or not to' ),
('c', 'I like cat whose name starts with')) as x(a,b)) X;
on X.a = src.first
WHERE first <> 'NA'
Personally I find the 2nd option easier to read. Though if you have meaning for a,b,c I would think you'd want that stored in a table somewhere for additional access. In code seems like a bad place to store data like this that could change.
Assuming you want
a this is a a
b this is a b
c this is a c
d this is a d
e this is a e
thanks to xQbert
I could solve this problem like this
SELECT FirstRow, concat
(
CASE FirstRow
WHEN 'AN' then 'amerstdam'
WHEN 'G' then 'berlin'
ELSE 'NA'
END, ''
) AS SecondRow
FROM(
Select coalesce (Col1, 'NA') as FirstRow
FROM Table1
UNION
Select coalesce (Col2, 'NA')
FROM Table1) SRC
WHERE FirstRow <> 'NA'
;
I'm trying to do something similar to this:
CASE
WHEN number IN (1,2,3) THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END;
Instead I want to have a query in the place of the list, like so:
CASE
WHEN number IN (SELECT num_val FROM some_table) THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END;
I can't seem to get this to work. Also, here is an example of the query.
SELECT number, (CASE
WHEN number IN (SELECT num_val FROM some_table) THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END) AS YES_NO
FROM some_other_table;
Yes, it's possible. See an example below that would do what you are intending. The difference is that it uses EXISTS instead of IN.
SELECT a.number,
(CASE WHEN EXISTS (SELECT null FROM some_table b where b.num_val = a.number)
THEN 'Y'
ELSE 'N'
END) AS YES_NO
FROM some_other_table a;
EDIT:
I confess: I like the answers given by the others better personally.
However, there will be a difference between this query and the others depending on your data.
If for a value number in the table some_other_table you can have many matching entries of num_val in the table some_table, then the other answers will return duplicate rows. This query will not.
That said, if you take the left join queries given by the others, and add a group by, then you won't get the duplicates.
I suggest using an OUTER JOIN instead of trying to use a subquery in a CASE expression:
SELECT t.NUMBER,
CASE
WHEN s.NUM_VAL IS NOT NULL THEN 'Y'
ELSE 'N'
END AS YES_NO
FROM SOME_OTHER_TABLE t
LEFT OUTER JOIN SOME_TABLE s
ON s.NUM_VAL = t.NUMBER
Best of luck.
Seems like you just need to join the tables and do a decode.
with x as
(
select 1 as num from dual
union
select 2 as num from dual
union
select 3 as num from dual
),
y as
(
select 1 as num from dual
union
select 2 as num from dual
union
select 4 as num from dual
)
select x.num, decode(y.num, null, 'N','Y') as yes_no
from x
left outer join y on (x.num = y.num)
Output:
NUM YES_NO
1 Y
2 Y
3 N
You can use subquery in case statement:
select
case dummy
when 'X' then (select 'TRUE' from dual)
else 'FALSE'
end TEST
from dual;
TEST
TRUE
select
case (select 'XXX' from dual)
when 'XXX' then 'TRUE'
else 'FALSE'
end TEST
from dual;
TEST
TRUE
I don't quite know how I should describe the problem for title, but here's my question.
I have a table named hello with two columns named time and state.
Time | State
Here's an example of the data I have
1 DC
1 VA
1 VA
2 DC
2 MD
3 MD
3 MD
3 VA
3 DC
I would like to get all the possible time and the count of "VA" (0 if "VA" doesn't appear at the time)
The output would look like this
Time Number
1 2
2 0
3 1
I tried to do
SELECT DISTINCT time,
COUNT(state) as Number
FROM hello
WHERE state = 'VA'
GROUP BY time
but it doesn't seem to work.
This is a conditional aggregation:
select time, sum(case when state = 'VA' then 1 else 0 end) as NumVA
from hello
group by time
I want to add that you should never use distinct when you have a group by. The two are redundant. Distinct as a keyword is not even needed in the SQL language; semantically, it is just shorthand for grouping by all the columns.
SELECT TIME,
SUM(CASE WHEN State = 'VA' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
FROm tableName
GROUP BY Time

One rule of thumb is to get your counts first and put them into a temp for use later.
See below:
Create table temp(Num int, [state] varchar(2))
Insert into temp(Num,[state])
Select 1,'DC'
UNION ALL
Select 1,'VA'
UNION ALL
Select 1,'VA'
UNION ALL
Select 2,'DC'
UNION ALL
Select 2,'MD'
UNION ALL
Select 3,'MD'
UNION All
Select 3,'MD'
UNION ALL
Select 3,'VA'
UNION ALL
Select 3,'DC'
Select t.Num [Time],t.[State]
, CASE WHEN t.[state] = 'VA' THEN Count(t.[State]) ELSE 0 END [Number]
INTO #temp2
From temp t
Group by t.Num, t.[state]
--drop table #temp2
Select
t2.[time]
,SUM(t2.[Number])
From #temp2 t2
group by t2.[time]
