I have a SQLite table like this:
Col1 Col2 Col3
1 ABC Bill
2 CDE Fred
3 FGH Jack
4 CDE June
I would like to find the row containing a Col2 value of CDE which has the max Col1 value i.e. in this case June. Or, put another way, the most recently added row with a col2 value of CDE, as Col1 is an auto increment column. What is an SQL query string to achieve this? I need this to be efficient as the query will run many iterations in a loop.
Thanks.
SELECT * FROM table WHERE col2='CDE' ORDER BY col1 DESC LIMIT 1
in case if col1 wasn't an increment it would go somewhat like
SELECT *,MAX(col1) AS max_col1 FROM table WHERE col2='CDE' GROUP BY col2 LIMIT 1
Try this:
SELECT t1.*
FROM table1 t1
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT MAX(col1) MAXID, col2
FROM table1
GROUP BY col2
) t2 ON t1.col1 = t2.maxID AND t1.col2 = t2.col2
WHERE t1.col2 = 'CDE';
SQL Fiddle Demo1
1: This demo is mysql, but it should work fine with the same syntax in sqlite.
Use a subquery such as:
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3
FROM table
WHERE Col1 = (SELECT MAX(Col1) FROM table WHERE Col2='CDE')
Add indexes as appropriate, e.g. clustered index on Col1 and another nonclustered index on Col2 to speed up the subquery.
In SQLite 3.7.11 and later, the simplest query would be:
SELECT *, max(Col1) FROM MyTable WHERE Col2 = 'CDE'
As shown by EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN, both this and passingby's query are most efficient, if there is an index on Col2.
If you'd want to see the correspondig values for all Col2 values, use a query like this instead:
SELECT *, max(Col1) FROM MyTable GROUP BY Col2

I need to delete the repeated row-
I have this table-
source
The result that I need-
result
*keep only one combination of 2 column (the order is not important)
Thanks! (:
Here is one method that should be efficient:
select col1, col2
from t
where col1 <= col2
union all
select col1, col2
from t
where col1 > col2 and
not exists (select 1 from t t2 where t2.col1 = t.col2 and t2.col2 = t.col1);
Note: This is a SQL select statement, so it does not delete rows in the table. You seem to want the results from a query, not to modify the underlying table.
My interpretation of the spec "keep only one combination of 2 column, [column] order not important":
SELECT col1, col2
FROM t
WHERE col1 <= col2
UNION
SELECT col2, col1
FROM t
WHERE col1 > col2;
I am looking for a query where I can get unique values(5) in a table. For example.
The table consists of more 100+ columns. Is there any way I can get unique values.
I am using google big query and tried this option
select col1 col2 ... coln
from tablename
where col1 is not null and col2 is not null
group by col1,col2... coln
order by col1, col2... coln
limit 5
But problem is it gives zero records if all the column are null
Thanks

I think you might be able to do this in Google bigquery, assuming that the types for the columns are compatible:
select colname, colval
from (select 'col1' as colname, col1 as colvalue
from t
where col1 is not null
group by col1
limit 5
),
(select 'col2' as colname, col2 as colvalue
from t
where col2 is not null
group by col2
limit 5
),
. . .
For those not familiar with the syntax, a comas in the from clause means union all, not cross join in this dialect. Why did they have to change this?
Try This one, i hope it works
;With CTE as (
select * ,ROW_NUMBER () over (partition by isnull(col1,''),isnull(col2,'')... isnull(coln,'') order by isnull(col1,'')) row_id
from tablename
) select * from CTE where row_id =1
Trying to wrap my head around this but its just spinning in circles...
I have a sql right now and get to a point where I have values as such:
select T1.col1, T2.col2
from T2, T1
where T2.recNo = T1.recNo
AND T2.id=3
AND T1.recNo IN(
select recNo from T1 where col1 IN (
select col1 from T1 group by col1 having COUNT(*) >2))
col1|col2
111|123
111|123
222|456
222|456
222|456
333|789
333|700
etc...
This is a pretty large output and what I am trying to find is if there are any values in col2 that are NOT the same for each grouping of values in col1 (i know for certain col1 is unique) I dumped the output to a file and will try to figure it out in perl next.
The output i am trying to get is:
col1|col2
333|789
333|700
You can do this with aggregation:
select col1
from (<your query here>) s
group by col1
having min(col2) <> max(col2);
This will return all col1 values that have more than one col2 value.
In my table,some records have all column values are the same, except one. I need write a query to get those records. what's the best way to do it? the table is like this:
colA colB colC
a b c
a b d
a b e
What's the best way to get all records with all the columns? Thanks for everyone's help.
Assuming you know that column3 will always be different, to get the rows that have more than one value:
SELECT Col1, Col2
FROM Table t
GROUP BY Col1, Col2
HAVING COUNT(distinct col3) > 1
If you need all the values in the three columns, then you can join this back to the original table:
SELECT t.*
FROM table t join
(SELECT Col1, Col2
FROM Table t
GROUP BY Col1, Col2
HAVING COUNT(distinct col3) > 1
) cols
on t.col1 = cols.col1 and t.col2 = cols.col2
Just select those rows that have the different values:
SELECT col1, col2
FROM myTable
WHERE colWanted != knownValue
If this is not what you are looking for, please post examples of the data in the table and the wanted output.
How about something like
SELECT Col1, Col2
FROM Table
GROUP BY Col1, Col2
HAVING COUNT(*) = 1
This will give you Col1, Col2 that have unique data.
Assuming col3 has the difs
SELECT Col1, Col2
FROM Table
GROUP BY Col1, Col2
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
OR TO SHOW ALL 3 COLS
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3
FROM Table1
GROUP BY Col1, Col2, Col3
HAVING COUNT(Col3) > 1
I have a table with the following
Table1
col1 col2
------------
1 A
2 B
3 C
0 D
Result
col1 col2 col3
------------------
0 D ABC
I am not sure how to go about writing the query , col1 and col2 can be selected by this
select col1, col2 from Table1 where col1 = 0;
How should I go about adding a col3 with value ABC.
Try this:
select col1, col2, 'ABC' as col3 from Table1 where col1 = 0;
If you meant just ABC as simple value, answer above is the one that works fine.
If you meant concatenation of values of rows that are not selected by your main query, you will need to use a subquery.
Something like this may work:
SELECT t1.col1,
t1.col2,
(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(col2 SEPARATOR '') FROM Table1 t2 WHERE t2.col1 != 0) as col3
FROM Table1 t1
WHERE t1.col1 = 0;
Actual syntax maybe a bit off though
