Hello I am trying to make a Select where the uses chooses department and would like to have clause WHERE this department is first, let's say we select 10 results from department: Taxes and then make a SUM SELECT of fee WHERE status = 1. Which results be selected based on the first select All the results are coming from the same table.
| id | department | status | fee |
----------------------------------
| 1 | tax | 1 | 20 |
| 2 | tax | 2 | 20 |
| 3 | tax | 1 | 20 |
| 4 | accounting | 1 | 20 |
So I would like to select if department is choose as tax, and status is 1 the sum of FEE columns which should be 40
So far my Select query looks like this:
SELECT P.id, P.fee, (SELECT SUM(P.fee) FROM cases P WHERE status = 1) as fee_USD
FROM cases P WHERE 1";
if (!empty($department)) { $sql .= " AND P.department = '$department'"; }
the last line is checking if department is given as select option. there are other options as well but to make it simple I have pasted only this part of it. Any help is welcome.
In the Current Selection Fee is = 80
You have to add correlation to your query:
SELECT P1.id, P1.fee,
(SELECT SUM(P2.fee)
FROM cases P2
WHERE P2.department = P1.department AND status = 1) as fee_USD
FROM cases P1
WHERE 1 ...
This way the subquery will return the SUM of only those records which are related to the current record of the main query.
How to query for erase the view below?
+-------------------+------------+
| Order_id | Weight |
| 20 | 4 |
| 21 | 5 |
| 22 | 2 |
| 22 | 2 |
+-------------------+------------+
To be like this:
+-------------------+------------+
| Order_id | Weight |
| 20 | 4 |
| 21 | 5 |
| 22 | 2 |
| 22 | |
+-------------------+------------+
When displaying results but not entered into the database.
A simple way is:
select DISTINCT order_id, weight from xyz
UNION
select order_id, null from xyz
group by order_id, weight
having count(*) > 1
Order by weight desc;
The 1st select statement will display all the unique values and 2nd one will retrieve only the repeated values.
In your required output table, it seems like you want to display all the non-repeated rows and the 1st column value of repeated rows but not 2nd column value. The above query will allow you to do that.
OK, here is how to do it:
SELECT
Order_id,
Weight,
if(#order_id = Order_id, '', Weight) as no_dup_weight,
#order_id := Order_id as dummy
FROM Table1
ORDER BY Order_id asc;
You basically need to check to see if the previous Order_id is the same as the current, and if they are, output an empty field.
Here is an SQLFiddle demonstrating the solution.
Do you actually need 2 rows for the dupes? Can't you just use the DISTINCT clause as per http://www.mysqltutorial.org/mysql-distinct.aspx
Or is it important to know what has duplicates. In which case you should look into the GROUP BY clause
My site allows users to guess the result of a sports match. At the end of the match the guesses should be compared to the actual result. The winner(s) are the members with the closest correct guess
Im looking for a way to return all members who guessed the correct result and score difference IF NO (zero) member guessed correctly return members who guessed closest to the correct result
See MYSQL FIDLE EXAMPLE
I modified the script to change fixed values taking variables as you can see below
if(isset($_POST['resultBtn'])){
foreach($_POST['winner'] as $id =>$winner){
$winScore = $_POST['score'][$id];
:
:
$sql="SELECT p.*
FROM Multiple_Picks p
WHERE p.event_id='$matchId' AND
p.pick='$winner' AND
abs(p.score-'$winScore') = (SELECT min(abs(p2.score-1))
FROM Multiple_Picks p2
Where p2.pick=p.pick AND
p2.event_id = p.event_id)";
My problem is if I run this script on the following table:
NOTHING gets displayed even if I put result exactly correct:
My variable values are correct in the sql statment so that is not the problem
Any help will be welcomed...
IMPORTANT THE USER WHO SELECTED CLOSEST CORRECT RESULTS, FOR ALL GAME, DURING THE ROUND IS THE WINNER
example: if user A won 4 of the picks and user B won 5 of the picks then user B is the winner of the round
Why don't you want just
SELECT p.*, abs(p.score-'$winScore') as diff
FROM Multiple_Picks p
WHERE p.event_id='$matchId' AND p.pick='$winner'
ORDER BY diff ASC
LIMIT 1
This will return the closest member for the event. Remove the LIMIT if you need a few of them.
Also, never put your parameters directly into the SQL query, even trusted ones (not your case) and even if you're sure they will always be integer or non-string type. Use prepared statements.
In this answer I call a "Best" pick any pick that has chosen the correct winner for a particular match, and has the closest score to the actual match score.
These scripts also respect the different "rounds" in the competition, since that is an important complication.
This answer comes in two parts: first a query that is similar to the one in the question that returns all the "Best" picks for a particular match. To make it easier to run in SQL Fiddle, I have used MySQL variables instead of PHP variables.
Schema with test data:
create table Multiple_Picks (
pick_id int,
member_nr int,
event_id int,
pick varchar(100),
score int
);
insert into Multiple_Picks
values
(11,100,1,'Crusaders',15),
(12,100,2,'Waratahs',10),
(13,100,3,'Chiefs',4),
(21,200,1,'Crusaders',15),
(22,200,2,'Waratahs',10),
(23,200,3,'Lions',4),
(31,300,1,'Crusaders',15),
(32,300,2,'Waratahs',12),
(33,300,3,'Lions',6),
(41,100,4,'Crusaders',20),
(42,100,5,'Waratahs',20),
(43,100,6,'Lions',20)
;
Queries to show all picks and then best picks for a particular match:
set #matchId = 2;
set #winner = 'Waratahs';
set #winScore = 8;
-- Show all picks for a particular match
select * from Multiple_Picks
where event_id = #matchId;
-- Show best picks for a particular match
select p.*
from Multiple_Picks p
where p.event_id = #matchId
and p.pick = #winner
and abs(p.score - #winScore) =
(select min(abs(other.score - #winScore))
from Multiple_Picks other
where other.event_id = #matchId
and other.pick = #winner
)
;

Now we need to work towards finding the winner of each round of the competition.
First we have extra test data that contains the actual scores for Matches in rounds 1 and 2.
create table Matches (
event_id int,
winner varchar(100),
score int,
round int
);
insert into Matches
values
(1,'Crusaders',10,1),
(2,'Waratahs',11,1),
(3,'Lions',4,1),
(4,'Crusaders',20,2),
(5,'Waratahs',20,2),
(6,'Chiefs',20,2)
;
Now select the best picks for all Matches. The subselect (aliased as m) calculates best_diff for each match as the minimum difference between the actual score and every guessed score. This subselect is then joined to every pick so that only "Best" picks are returned.
-- Show all best picks for all Matches
select p.*, m.round
from Multiple_Picks p
join (
select m2.event_id, m2.winner, m2.score, m2.round,
min(abs(m2.score-p2.score)) as best_diff
from Matches m2
join Multiple_Picks p2
on p2.event_id = m2.event_id and p2.pick = m2.winner
group by m2.event_id, m2.winner, m2.score, m2.round
) as m
on p.event_id = m.event_id and p.pick = m.winner
and abs(m.score - p.score) = m.best_diff
order by m.round, p.event_id
;
It is then easy to get a count of Best picks for each player for each round by just grouping the previous query by member_nr and round:
-- Show a count of best picks for each player for each round
select p.member_nr, m.round, count(*) as best_count
from Multiple_Picks p
join (
select m2.event_id, m2.winner, m2.score, m2.round,
min(abs(m2.score-p2.score)) as best_diff
from Matches m2
join Multiple_Picks p2
on p2.event_id = m2.event_id and p2.pick = m2.winner
group by m2.event_id, m2.winner, m2.score, m2.round
) as m
on p.event_id = m.event_id and p.pick = m.winner
and abs(m.score - p.score) = m.best_diff
group by p.member_nr, m.round
order by m.round, count(*) desc
;

| 200 | 1 | 3 |
| 300 | 1 | 2 |
| 100 | 1 | 2 |
| 100 | 2 | 2 |
+-----------+-------+------------+
The final stage is to select only those players for each round who have the highest number of Best picks. I tried modifying the above queries, but the nesting becomes two confusing, so my solution was to create a few logical views so that the final query can be more easily understood. The views basically encapsulate the logic of the queries I have explained above:
create view MatchesWithBestDiff as
select m.event_id, m.winner, m.score, m.round,
min(abs(m.score-p.score)) as best_diff
from Matches m
join Multiple_Picks p
on p.event_id = m.event_id and p.pick = m.winner
group by m.event_id, m.winner, m.score, m.round
;
create view BestPicks as
select p.*, m.round
from Multiple_Picks p
join MatchesWithBestDiff m
on p.event_id = m.event_id and p.pick = m.winner
and abs(m.score - p.score) = m.best_diff
;
create view BestPickCount as
select member_nr, round, count(*) as best_count
from BestPicks
group by member_nr, round
;
So that the query that shows the winners of each round is simply:
-- Show the players with the highest number of Best Picks for each round
select *
from BestPickCount p
where best_count =
(
select max(other.best_count)
from BestPickCount other
where other.round = p.round
)
order by round
;
SQL Fiddle for players with most Best picks for each round
-- Show the players with the highest number of Best Picks for each round
+-----------+-------+------------+
| member_nr | round | best_count |
+-----------+-------+------------+
| 200 | 1 | 3 |
| 100 | 2 | 2 |
+-----------+-------+------------+
This whole investigation has reminded me how tricky it can be to get SQL to do much manipulation where records need to be selected depending on maximums and sums. Some of these types of queries can be much easier with window functions (the OVER and PARTITION BY clauses), but they are not available in MySQL.
While designing the above queries, I found a few interesting restrictions:
MySQL does not allow joins to subqueries in views definitions.
ANSI SQL does not allow an aggregate in a subquery to reference both a column from the inner query and a column from the outer query. MySQL seems to sometimes allow this, but I couldn't find clear guidance as to when it is allowed, so I chose to code the above queries to avoid this "feature".
scenario 1: NO USERS SELECTED THE CORRECT TEAM
I believe that result in this situation should be empty result because everyone has made a mistake.
SCORE RETURN MEMBERS WHO SELECTED THE CLOSEST TO CORRECT SCORE AND
RESULT
It seems to be already working in your code example except one mistake in select.
abs(p.score-'$winScore') = (SELECT min(abs(p2.score-1))
Instead of constant 1 (one) it should be variable '$winScore'
and to control the number of users you get, you may limit your results so you will get something like this:
$sql="SELECT p.*
FROM Multiple_Picks p
WHERE p.event_id='$matchId' AND
p.pick='$winner' AND
abs(p.score-'$winScore') = (SELECT min(abs(p2.score-'$winner'))
FROM Multiple_Picks p2
Where p2.pick=p.pick AND
p2.event_id = p.event_id)
order by p.id limit '$numberOfMembers'";
SCENARIO 2: SCENARIO 2: MULTIPLE USERS SELECTED CORRECT TEAM BUT
SCORES ARE DIFFERENT RETURN USER(S) WHO GUESSED CLOSEST TO CORRECT
SCORE
Same as in the previous question.
SCENARIO 3: MULTIPLE USERS SELECTED CORRECT TEAM AND SCORE RETURN ALL
USERS WHO SELECTED CORRECT TEAM AND SCORE
You can achieve this using same query just replace the LIMIT with 'rank' function, and also if you will get several closest scores, but you have to limit their number according to their voting order by id, for this purpose I suggest sorting.
So final query will be:
$sql="select * from (SELECT p.*,
abs(p.score-'$winScore') scr_diff,
#rownum := #rownum + 1 rank
FROM Multiple_Picks p,
(SELECT #rownum := 0) rank_gen
WHERE p.event_id='$matchId' AND
p.pick='$winner' AND
abs(p.score-'$winScore') = (SELECT min(abs(p2.score-'$winner'))
FROM Multiple_Picks p2
Where p2.pick=p.pick AND
p2.event_id = p.event_id)
order by p.id
) sq
where sq.scr_diff = 0
or sq.rank < '$numberOfMembers'";
Fiddle.
Best guesser for one match
First find the member(s) who picked the winner and had the closest score guess:
SELECT p.*
FROM
( SELECT MIN(ABS(score-'$winScore')) AS closest
FROM Multiple_Picks
WHERE event_id = '$matchId'
AND pick='$winner'
) AS c
JOIN Multiple_Picks p
WHERE p.event_id = '$matchId'
AND p.pick = '$winner'
AND ABS(score-'$winScore') = c.closest
If that return no results, then what should happen? (It would be because no one picked the winner for a particular event.)
But, I think your question is much more complex. However, the above gives a mapping from (event_id, pick) -> list-of-members who "won". Starting over...
Missing info
There is a mystery -- Where do the event results come from? I will assume this table is already populated:
CREATE TABLE Win (
event_id ..., -- which game
winnner ..., -- who won
score ... -- by what score
)
Best guesser overall
So, create a table of BestGuessers(event_id, member). The details of "all game" and "round" are a bit vague. So I will carry this at least one step further.
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE BestGuessers(
event_id ...,
member_nr ... -- who guessed the best for that event
)
SELECT p.event_id, p.member_nr
FROM
( SELECT w.event_id, w.winner, MIN(ABS(mp.score-w.score)) AS closest
FROM Multiple_Picks AS mp
JOIN Win AS w ON mp.event_id = w.event_id
AND mp.pick = w.winner
GROUP BY w.event_id, w.winner
) AS c
JOIN Multiple_Picks p
ON p.event_id = c.event_id
AND p.pick = c.pick
AND p.score = c.closest
Now, from that, you can pick the best guesser(s).
SELECT y.member_nr
FROM
( SELECT COUNT(*) AS ct
FROM BestGuessers
GROUP BY member_nr
ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC
LIMIT 1
) AS x -- the max number of correct guesses
STRAIGHT_JOIN
( SELECT member_nr, COUNT(*) AS ct
FROM BestGuessers
GROUP BY member_nr
) AS y -- the users who guessed correctly that many times
USING (ct);
All this is pretty complex; I may have some typos, even logic errors. But maybe I came close.
It seems an additional table to store the actual results would help here.
E.g let's say this is in a table called results with sample values as follows:
event_id winner result
1 Crusaders 16
2 Waratahs 15
3 Chiefs 4
4 Crusaders 17
5 Reds 12
0 Rebels 14
7 Cheetahs 15
8 Crusaders 14
This can then be JOINed on each row and results compared as follows:
SELECT p.*
, CASE WHEN ABS(p.score - r.result)
- CASE WHEN p.pick = r.winner THEN 999999 ELSE 0 END
= (SELECT MIN(ABS(p2.score - r2.result)
- CASE WHEN p2.pick = r2.winner THEN 999999 ELSE 0 END)
FROM picks p2
JOIN results r2
ON p2.event_id = r2.event_id
WHERE p2.event_id = p.event_id)
THEN 1
ELSE 0
END AS win
FROM picks p
JOIN results r
ON p.event_id = r.event_id;
Explanation
The rightmost win column is 1 if the member is calculated to have won or drawn the event, otherwise it is 0. The method used is similar to the one in your post, with the main difference being the team and score are combined. The main thing to be explained here is the 999999, which is subtracted when a correct team is picked - so this can be sure to eclipse the score difference. (Of course, an even bigger value could be picked if needed).
Demo
SQL Fiddle Demo
I have two tables.
Table1:
deviceID | PartA-present | PartB-present
------------+---------------+---------------
123 | 0 | 1
254 | 1 | 0
152 | 1 | 1
Table 2:
deviceID | PartA-Data | PartB-Data
------------+---------------+---------------
123 | 0 | 13
152 | 4 | 25
123 | 0 | 67
152 | 38 | 32
Now, the presence of partA, partB, etc are dynamic based on user settings. How can I form a query to export only those columns from table2 for which the parts are present (As indicated in table 1)?
In this case, for deviceID=123, I need to export only partB-Data from table 2
EDIT
Based on the answers I got, I think I should clarify. I have some idea of JOIN, but I cannot figure out how to get the following result.
Desired Result (for deviceID123):
deviceID | PartB-Data |
------------+---------------+
123 | 13 |
123 | 67 |
Desired Result (for deviceID 152):
deviceID | PartA-Data | PartB-Data
------------+---------------+---------------
152 | 4 | 25
152 | 38 | 32
UPDATE
What I was looking for was to get different number of columns in the output based on query, but thanks to #Alex, I realized it is not possible. In that sense, I can simply export table 2 for deviceID=xxx bcz the non relevant data is 0 anyways.
Your goal is not clear. But just as a start point try this fiddle
http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/0bb4d/1
SELECT t1.*, t2.*
FROM table1 t1
INNER JOIN table2 t2
ON t1.deviceid = t2.deviceid
WHERE t1.deviceID = 123
AND (t1.partA OR t2.partB)
EDIT 1 it is not about your table1 fields, it is about logic
check this fiddle:
http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/a7984/5
and this query
SELECT t1.deviceid,
IF(t1.partA=1, t2.partA, IF(t1.partB=1,t2.partB,null))
FROM table1 t1
INNER JOIN table2 t2
ON t1.deviceid = t2.deviceid
WHERE t1.deviceID = 123
AND (t1.partA OR t2.partB);
even if it brings expected result for deviceid=123, does it still work for deviceid=152?
EDIT 2 Hope I get your goal correctly. Check new fiddle: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/a7984/7
SELECT t1.deviceID,
IF(t1.partA=1, t2.partA, null),
IF(t1.partB=1, t2.partB, null)
FROM table1 t1
INNER JOIN table2 t2
ON t1.deviceid = t2.deviceid
WHERE t1.deviceID = 123
AND (t1.partA OR t2.partB);
Your query should look like this:
SELECT table2.*, table1.*
FROM table2
INNER JOIN table1 ON table1.deviceID = table2.deviceID
WHERE table2.deviceID = 123
AND (table1.PartA-present = 1 OR table1.PartB-present = 1)
This will join the two tables together and will only return rows when the a is present.
You should select all entries in table 2 where one of the parts is present and then just check using php
if ($row['PartA-present'] == 1) {
echo $row['PartA-Data'];
}
It might make more sense to simply make your table look like this though:
Table 2:
deviceID | PartA-Data | PartB-Data
------------+---------------+---------------
123 | -1 | 13
123 | -1 | 25
A -1 indicates the part isn't present. That way your queries will be faster and simpler because you'll be eliminating the join which adds time and complexity to the query.
