I will keep this simple- I would like to know if there is a good way to select all the values in a column when it never has a null in another column. For example.
A B
----- -----
1 7
2 7
NULL 7
4 9
1 9
2 9
From the above set I would just want 9 from B and not 7 because 7 has a NULL in A. Obviously I could wrap this as a subquery and USE the IN clause etc. but this is already part of a pretty unique set and am looking to keep this efficient.
I should note that for my purposes this would only be a one-way comparison... I would only be returning values in B and examining A.
I imagine there is an easy way to do this that I am missing, but being in the thick of things I don't see it right now.
You can do something like this:
select *
from t
where t.b not in (select b from t where a is null);
If you want only distinct b values, then you can do:
select b
from t
group by b
having sum(case when a is null then 1 else 0 end) = 0;
And, finally, you could use window functions:
select a, b
from (select t.*,
sum(case when a is null then 1 else 0 end) over (partition by b) as NullCnt
from t
) t
where NullCnt = 0;
The query below will only output one column in the final result. The records are grouped by column B and test if the record is null or not. When the record is null, the value for the group will increment each time by 1. The HAVING clause filters only the group which has a value of 0.
SELECT B
FROM TableName
GROUP BY B
HAVING SUM(CASE WHEN A IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) = 0
If you want to get all the rows from the records, you can use join.
SELECT a.*
FROM TableName a
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT B
FROM TableName
GROUP BY B
HAVING SUM(CASE WHEN A IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) = 0
) b ON a.b = b.b

Consider following table:
Number | Value
1 a
1 b
1 a
2 a
2 a
3 c
4 a
5 d
5 a
I want to choose every row, where the value for one number is the same, so my result should be:
Number | Value
2 a
3 c
4 a
I manage to get the right numbers by using nested
SQL-Statements like below. I am wondering if there is a simpler solution for my problem.
SELECT
a.n,
COUNT(n)
FROM
(
SELECT number n , value k
FROM testtable
GROUP BY number, value
) a
GROUP BY n
HAVING COUNT(n) = 1
You can try this
SELECT NUMBER,MAX(VALUE) AS VALUE FROM TESTTABLE
GROUP BY NUMBER
HAVING MAX(VALUE)=MIN(VALUE)
You can try also this:
SELECT DISTINCT t.number, t.value
FROM testtable t
LEFT JOIN testtable t_other
ON t.number = t_other.number AND t.value <> t_other.value
WHERE t_other.number IS NULL
Another alternative using exists.
select distinct num, val from testtable a
where not exists (
select 1 from testtable b
where a.num = b.num
and a.val <> b.val
)

My requirement is to get id for missing status from SQL table. I will get a list of status for each id, say A,B,C,D. In a scenario, I have to check status B exists or not. Table gets updated everyday and each time new Id will be created
Conditions,
If status A exists and other statuses such as C and D does not
exists, then don't need to get id.
If status A and B exists and other statuses such as C or D does not exists, then don't need to get id .
If status A exists and B not exists, other
statuses such as C or D exists, then I should get the id of that
record
If status A and B exists, other
statuses such as C or D exists (all status exists), then I don't need to get the id of that
record
Table1:
Id StatusCode
1 A
1 C
2 A
2 B
2 C
3 A
3 C
3 D
How do I get Id 1 and 3 using SQL query?, Seems simple but as I am new to SQL I could not able to get it in SQL.
select statement in this screenshot works fine when there is only one id, it fails on multiple id. I tried many other way, but no use
Try this
SELECT DISTINCT ID
FROM T1
WHERE Statuscode = 'A' AND ID NOT IN (SELECT ID FROM T1 WHERE Statuscode = 'B' )
AND (ID IN (SELECT ID FROM T1 WHERE Statuscode = 'C' ) OR ID IN (SELECT ID FROM T1 WHERE Statuscode = 'D' ))
FIDDLE DEMO
Also, To correct Gordon Linoff's answer, we need to add one more where criteria there
SELECT Id
FROM T1
GROUP BY Id
HAVING SUM(CASE WHEN Statuscode = 'A' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) > 0 AND
SUM(CASE WHEN Statuscode = 'B' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) = 0 AND
SUM(CASE WHEN Statuscode IN ('C', 'D') THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) > 0;
FIDDLE DEMO
This answers the original version of the question.
I think you can use aggregation:
select id
from t
group by id
having sum(case when status = 'A' then 1 else 0 end) > 0 and
sum(case when status in ('C', 'D') then 1 else 0 end) > 0;
SELECT id
FROM t
GROUP BY
Id
HAVING MAX(status) = CHAR(64 + COUNT(*))
--char(64+1) = A, char(64+2) = B etc
The logic behind this is that it will take all count the same types of id. So if you have 3 rows you will need abc. If you have an id with 4 rows you will have ABCD. Generally the max status should always be the same as the number of rows.
This is true of course if you have no duplicate between id and status code.
select distinct id from t where t.statuscode = 'C' or t.statuscode = 'D' group by t.id
I like to sum values in a table based on a condition taken from the same table called. The structure of the table as per below. The table is called Data
Data
Type Value
1 5
1 10
1 15
1 25
1 15
1 20
1 5
2 10
3 5
If the Value of Type 2 is larger than the Value of Type 3 then I like to subtract the Value of Type 2 from the sum of all the Values in the table. I'm not sure how to write the IF statements using Values looked up in the table. I have tried below but it doesn't work.
SELECT SUM(Value)-IF(SELECT Value FROM Data WHERE Type=2>SELECT Value
FROM Data WHERE Type=3 THEN SELECT Value FROM Data
WHERE Type=2 ELSE SELECT Value FROM Data WHERE Type=3) FROM Data
or
SELECT SUM(d.Value)-IIF(a.type2>b.type3, a.type2, b.type3)
FROM Data d, (SELECT Value AS type2 FROM Data WHERE Type=2) a,
(SELECT Value AS type3 FROM Data WHERE Type=3) b
If I follow your logic correctly, then this would seem to do what you want:
select d.value - (case when d2.value > d3.value then d2.value else 0 end)
from data d cross join
(select value from data where type = 2) d2 cross join
(select value from data where type = 3) d3 ;
EDIT:
If you want just one number, then use conditional aggregation:
select sum(value) -
(case when sum(case when type = 2 then value else 0 end) >
sum(case when type = 3 then value else 0 end)
then sum(case when type = 2 then value else 0 end)
else 0
end)
from data;
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. This is what I came up with in the end. It is a little bit different to the reply above since I'm using MS Access
SELECT SUM(Value)-IIf(SUM(IIf(Type=2, Value, 0)>SUM(IIf(Type=3, Value, 0), SUM(IIf(Type=2, Value, 0), SUM(IIf(Type=3, Value, 0) FROM Data
It is them same as the second suggestion above but adapted to MS Access SQL.
This is my example data (there are no indexes and I do not want to create any):
CREATE TABLE tblTest ( a INT , b INT );
INSERT INTO tblTest ( a, b ) VALUES
( 1 , 2 ),
( 5 , 1 ),
( 1 , 4 ),
( 3 , 2 )
I want the minimum value in of both column a and column b which is greater then a given value. E.g. if the given value is 3 then I want 4 to be returned.
This is my current solution:
SELECT MIN (subMin) FROM
(
SELECT MIN (a) as subMin FROM tblTest
WHERE a > 3 -- Returns 5
UNION
SELECT MIN (b) as subMin FROM tblTest
WHERE b > 3 -- Returns 4
)
This searches the table twice - once to get min(a) once to get min(b).
I believe it should be faster to do this with just one pass. Is this possible?
You want to use conditional aggregatino for this:
select min(case when a > 3 then a end) as minA,
min(case when b > 3 then b end) as minB
from tblTest;
To get the minimum of both values, you can use a SQLite extension, which handles multiple values for min():
select min(min(case when a > 3 then a end),
min(case when b > 3 then b end)
)
from tblTest
The only issue is that the min will return NULL if either argument is NULL. You can fix this by doing:
select coalesce(min(min(case when a > 3 then a end),
min(case when b > 3 then b end)
),
min(case when a > 3 then a end),
min(case when b > 3 then b end)
)
from tblTest
This version will return the minimum value, subject to your conditions. If one of the conditions has no rows, it will still return the minimum of the other value.
From the top of my head, you could modify the table and add a min value column to store the minimum value of the two columns. then query that column.
Or you can do this:
select min(val)
from
(
select min(col1, col2) as val
from table1
)
where
val > 3
The outer SELECT, queries the memory, not the table itself.
Check SQL Fiddle
I've got a sub-select in a query that looks something like this:
left outer join
(select distinct ID from OTHER_TABLE) as MYJOIN
on BASE_OBJECT.ID = MYJOIN.ID
It's pretty straightforward. Checks to see if a certain relation exists between the main object being queried for and the object represented by OTHER_TABLE by whether or not MYJOIN.ID is null on the row in question.
But now the requirements have changed a little. There's another row in OTHER_TABLE that can have a value of 1 or 0, and the query needs to know whether a relation exists between the primary for a 1-value, and also if it exists for a 0 value. The obvious solutions is to put:
left outer join
(select distinct ID, TYPE_VALUE from OTHER_TABLE) as MYJOIN
on BASE_OBJECT.ID = MYJOIN.ID
But that would be wrong because if 0-type and 1-type objects both exist for the same ID, it will increase the number of rows returned by the query, which isn't acceptable. So what I need is some sort of subselect that will return 1 row for each distinct ID, with a "1-type exists" column and a "0-type exists" column. And I have no idea how to code that in SQL.
For example, for the following table,
ID | TYPE_VALUE
_________________
1 | 1
3 | 0
3 | 1
4 | 0
I'd like to see a result set like this:
ID | HAS_TYPE_0 | HAS_TYPE_1
______________________________
1 | 0 | 1
3 | 1 | 1
4 | 1 | 0
Anyone know how I could set up a query to do this? Hopefully with a minimum of ugly hacks?
In the general case, you would use EXISTS:
SELECT DISTINCT ID,
CASE WHEN EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM Table1 y
WHERE y.TYPE_VALUE = 0 AND ID = x.ID)
THEN 1
ELSE 0 END AS HAS_TYPE_0,
CASE WHEN EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM Table1 y
WHERE y.TYPE_VALUE = 1 AND ID = x.ID)
THEN 1
ELSE 0 END AS HAS_TYPE_1
FROM Table1 x;
If you have a very large number of elements in the table, this won't perform so great - those nested subselects are often a kiss of death when it comes to performance.
For your specific case, you could also use GROUP BY and MAX() and MIN() to speed things up:
SELECT
ID,
CASE WHEN MIN(TYPE_VALUE) = 0 THEN '1' ELSE 0 END AS HAS_TYPE_0,
CASE WHEN MAX(TYPE_VALUE) = 1 THEN '1' ELSE 0 END AS HAS_TYPE_1
FROM Table1
GROUP BY ID;
Instead of select distinct ID, TYPE_VALUE from OTHER_TABLE
use
select ID,
MAX(CASE WHEN TYPE_VALUE =0 THEN 1 END) as has_type_0,
MAX(CASE WHEN TYPE_VALUE =1 THEN 1 END) as has_type_1
from OTHER_TABLE
GROUP BY ID;
You can do the same using PIVOT opearator...
