If I have three columns in my MySQL table people, say id, name, created where name is a string and created is a timestamp.. what's the appropriate query for a scenario where I have 10 rows and each row has a record with a name. The names could have a unique id, but a similar name none the less. So you can have three Bob's, two Mary's, one Jack and 4 Phil's.
There is also a hobbies table with the columns id, hobby, person_id.
Basically I want a query that will do the following:
Return all of the people with zero hobbies, but only check by the latest distinct person created, if that makes sense. Meaning if there is a Bob person that was created yesterday, and one created today.. I only want to know if the Bob created today has zero hobbies. The one from yesterday is no longer relevant.
select pp.id
from people pp, (select name, max(created) from people group by name) p
where pp.name = p.name
and pp.created = p.created
and id not in ( select person_id from hobbies )
SELECT latest_person.* FROM (
SELECT p1.* FROM people p1
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM people p2
WHERE p1.name = p2.name AND p1.created < p2.created
)
) AS latest_person
LEFT OUTER JOIN hobbies h ON h.person_id = latest_person.id
WHERE h.id IS NULL;
Try This:
Select *
From people p
Where timeStamp =
(Select Max(timestamp)
From people
Where name = p.Name
And not exists
(Select * From hobbies
Where person_id = p.id))

I want to fetch all parents that have kids in a specific grade only in a school.
Below are trimmed down version of the tables.
TABLE students
id,
last_name,
grade_id,
school_id
TABLE parents_students
parent_id,
student_id
TABLE parents
id,
last_name,
school_id
I tried the below query but it doesn't really work as expected. It rather fetches all parents in a school disregarding the grade. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
SELECT DISTINCT
p.id,
p.last_name,
p.school_id,
st.school_id,
st.grade_id,
FROM parents p
INNER JOIN students st ON st.school_id = p.school_id
WHERE st.grade_id = 118
AND st.school_id = 6
GROUP BY p.id,st.grade_id,st.school_id;
I would think:
select p.*
from parents p
where exists (select 1
from parents_students ps join
students s
on ps.student_id = s.id
where ps.parent_id = p.id and
s.grade_id = 118 and
s.school_id = 6
);
Your question says that you want information about the parents. If so, I don't see why you are including redundant information about the school and grade (it is redundant because the where clause specifies exactly what those values are).
I have 3 tables:
Person (with a column PersonKey)
Telephone (with columns Tel_NumberKey, Tel_Number, Tel_NumberType e.g. 1=home, 2=mobile)
xref_Person+Telephone (columns PersonKey, Tel_NumberKey, CreatedDate, ModifiedDate)
I'm looking to get the most recent (e.g. the highest Tel_NumberKey) from the xref_Person+Telephone for each Person and use that Tel_NumberKey to get the actual Tel_Number from the Telephone table.
The problem I am having is that I keep getting duplicates for the same Tel_NumberKey. I also need to be sure I get both the home and mobile from the Telephone table, which I've been looking to do via 2 individual joins for each Tel_NumberType - again getting duplicates.
Been trying the following but to no avail:
-- For HOME
SELECT
p.PersonKey, pn.Phone_Number, pn.Tel_NumberKey
FROM
Persons AS p
INNER JOIN
xref_Person+Telephone AS x ON p.PersonKey = x.PersonKey
INNER JOIN
Telephone AS pn ON x.Tel_NumberKey = pn.Tel_NumberKey
WHERE
pn.Tel_NumberType = 1 -- e.g. Home phone number
AND pn.Tel_NumberKey = (SELECT MAX(pn1.Tel_NumberKey) AS Tel_NumberKey
FROM Person AS p1
INNER JOIN xref_Person+Telephone AS x1 ON p1.PersonKey = x1.PersonKey
INNER JOIN Telephone AS pn1 ON x1.Tel_NumberKey = pn1.Tel_NumberKey
WHERE pn1.Tel_NumberType = 1
AND p1.PersonKey = p.PersonKey
AND pn1.Tel_Number = pn.Tel_Number)
ORDER BY
p.PersonKey
And have been looking over the following links but again keep getting duplicates.
SQL select max(date) and corresponding value
How can I SELECT rows with MAX(Column value), DISTINCT by another column in SQL?
SQL Server: SELECT only the rows with MAX(DATE)
Am sure this must be possible but been at this a couple of days and can't believe its that difficult to get the most recent / highest value when referencing 3 tables. Any help greatly appreciated.
select *
from
( SELECT p.PersonKey, pn.Phone_Number, pn.Tel_NumberKey
, row_number() over (partition by p.PersonKey, pn.Phone_Number order by pn.Tel_NumberKey desc) rn
FROM
Persons AS p
INNER JOIN
xref_Person+Telephone AS x ON p.PersonKey = x.PersonKey
INNER JOIN
Telephone AS pn ON x.Tel_NumberKey = pn.Tel_NumberKey
WHERE
pn.Tel_NumberType = 1
) tt
where tt.rn = 1
ORDER BY
tt.PersonKey
you have to use max() function and then you have to order by rownum in descending order like.
select f.empno
from(select max(empno) empno from emp e
group by rownum)f
order by rownum desc
It will give you all employees having highest employee number to lowest employee number. Now implement it with your case then let me know.
I have a table of cars where each car belongs to a company. In another table I have a list of company locations by city.
I want to select all cars from the cars table whose company has locations on all cities passed into the stored procedure, otherwise exclude those cars all together even if it falls short of one city.
So, I've tried something like:
select id, cartype from cars where companyid in
(
select id from locations where cityid in
(
select id from cities
)
)
This doesn't work as it obviously satisfies the condition if ANY of the cities are in the list, not all of them.
It sounds like a group by count, but can't make it work with what I tried.
I"m using MS SQL 2005
One example:
select id, cartype from cars c
where ( select count(1) from cities where id in (...))
= ( select count(distinct cityid)
from locations
where c.companyid = locations.id and cityid in (...) )
Maybe try counting all the cities, and then select the car if the company has the same number of distinct location cities are there are total cities.
SELECT id, cartype FROM cars
WHERE
--Subquery to find the number of locations belonging to car's company
(SELECT count(distinct cities.id) FROM cities
INNER JOIN locations on locations.cityid = cities.id
WHERE locations.companyId = cars.companyId)
=
--Subquery to find the total number of locations
(SELECT count(distinct cities.id) FROM cities)
I haven't tested this, and it may not be the most efficient query, but I think this might work.
Try this
SELECT e.*
FROM cars e
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT 1
FROM Cities p
WHERE p.location = e.Location
)

Question is: How many people have at least five еntitlements?
I've got this, please tell me how wrong it is and fix it.
select count(personId)
from serialNumber_tbl natural join entitlement_tbl
group by personId
having sum(entitlementID) > 5
Thank you.
The condition for at least 5 is >= 5, not > 5
You need to count the distinct ids in the entitlement table, not person
This gives you the persons, next you need to subquery it to find the count of persons.
select count(personId)
FROM
(
select personId
from serialNumber_tbl natural join entitlement_tbl
group by personId
having count(distinct entitlement_id) >= 5
) X
Your request isn't exactly clear. Are you asking for the count of people with more than five entitlement rows whether they exist on multiple serial numbers or not? If so, you could do something like:
Select Count(*) As CountOfPeople
From Person_tbl As P
Where Exists (
Select 1
From serialNumbers As S1
Join entitlement_tbl As E1
On E1.serialNumberId = S.serialNumberId
Where S1.personId = P.personId
Having Count(*) >= 5
)
Or is it that you are asking to find the number of people that have a serialNumber with more than five entitlements? If that is the case, then you could do something like:
Select Count(*) As CountOfPeople
From Person_tbl As P
Where Exists (
Select 1
From serialNumbers As S1
Join entitlement_tbl As E1
On E1.serialNumberId = S.serialNumberId
Where S1.personId = P.personId
Having Count( Distinct S1.serialNumberId ) >= 5
)
Imagine you have two tables, with a one to many relationship.
For this example, I will suggest that there are two tables: Person, and Homes.
The person table holds a persons name, and gives them an ID. The homes table, holds the association of homes to a person. PID joins to "Person.ID"
And, in this tiny DB, a person can have no homes, or many homes.
I hope I drew that right.
How do I write a select, that returns everyone with every specified house type?
Let's say these are valid "Types" in the homes table:
Cottage, Main, Mansion, Spaceport.
I want to return everyone, in the Person table, who has a spaceport and a Cottage.
The best I could come up with was this:
SELECT DISTINCT( p.name ) AS name
FROM person p
INNER JOIN homes h ON h.pid = p.id
WHERE 'spaceport' in (
SELECT DISTINCT( type ) AS type
FROM homes
WHERE pid = p.id
)
AND 'cottage' in (
SELECT DISTINCT( type ) AS type
FROM homes
WHERE pid = p.id
)
When I wrote that, it works, but I'm pretty sure there has to be a better way.
The HAVING clause here will guarantee that the persons returned have both types, not just one or the other.
SELECT p.name
FROM person p
INNER JOIN homes h
ON p.id = h.pid
AND h.type IN ('spaceport', 'cottage')
GROUP BY p.name
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT h.type) = 2
select * from homes;
home_id person_id type
--
1 1 cottage
2 1 mansion
3 2 cottage
4 3 mansion
5 4 cottage
6 4 cottage
To find the id numbers of every person who has both a cottage and a mansion, group by the id number, restrict the output to cottages and mansions, and count the distinct types.
select person_id
from homes
where type in ('cottage','mansion')
group by person_id
having count(distinct type) = 2;
person_id
--
1
You can use this query in a join to get all the columns from the person table.
select person.*
from person
inner join (select person_id
from homes
where type in ('cottage','mansion')
group by person_id
having count(distinct type) = 2) T
on person.person_id = T.person_id;
Thanks to Joe for pointing out an error in my count().
Not sure about the performance on this one, but here goes:
SELECT PID FROM (
SELECT PID, COUNT(PID) cnt FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT PID, Type FROM Homes
WHERE Type IN ('Type1', 'Type2', 'Type3')
) a
GROUP BY PID
) b
WHERE b.cnt = 3
You'd have to dynamically generate your IN clause as well as the WHERE b.CNT clause.
