Creating a column being the multiple of others - mysql

I need some help. I have 2 colluns from mysql query result: 1 with text, and another with decimal values. Like that:
select desc, value from table a
|5,50 % | 2984.59 |
|Subs | 10951.70 |
|Isent | 3973.17 |
|13,30 % | 560.26 |
From the rows that have the %, I want to multiply the values and create a third result column, rounding up to two decimal places. See above
2984,59 * 0,055 = 164,15245
560,26 * 0,133 = 74,514
I need make the sql query that show something like above.
+-------+-----------+-----------+
|5,50 % | 2984,59 | 164,16 |
|Subs | 10951,70 | 0 or NULL |
|Isent | 3973,17 | 0 or NULL |
|13,30% | 560,26 | 74,52 |
+-------+-----------+-----------+
How i can do it?
Thanks so much for help

It would be better to have floaring numbers in the first place, converting costs time
You have commas in your procentage, but mysql needs dots there
If value isn't always a number, you can use the mysql way to add a 0 0 to it, that remioves all non numerical characters
SELECT `desc`, `value`, (REPLACE(`desc`,',','.') + 0) * `value` / 100 FROM val
desc
value
(REPLACE(`desc`,',','.') + 0) * `value` / 100
5,50 %
2985
164.175
Subs
10952

Two things to do in MySQL IF()

I have a problem concerning the IF() function in MySQL.
I would like to return a string and change the value of a variable. Somwhat like:
IF(#firstRow=1, "Dear" AND #firstRow:=0, "dear")
This outputs only '0' instead of 'Dear'...
I would be very thankful for some input on ways I could solve this problem!
Louis :)
AND is a boolean operator, not a "also do this other thing" operator.
"Dear" AND 0 returns 0 because 0 is treated as false in MySQL and <anything> AND false will return false.
Also because the integer/boolean value of "Dear" is 0 as well. Using a string in a numeric context just reads initial digits in the string, if any, and ignores the rest.
It's not clear what your problem is, but I guess you want to capitalize the word "dear" if the row is the first one in the result set.
Instead of being too clever by half trying to fit the side-effect into your expression, do yourself a favor and break it out into a separate column:
mysql> SELECT IF(#firstRow=1, 'Dear', 'dear'), #firstRow:=0 AS _ignoreThis
-> FROM (SELECT #firstRow:=1) AS _init
-> CROSS JOIN
-> mytable;
+---------------------------------+-------------+
| IF(#firstRow=1, 'Dear', 'dear') | _ignoreThis |
+---------------------------------+-------------+
| Dear | 0 |
| dear | 0 |
| dear | 0 |
+---------------------------------+-------------+
But if you really want to make your code as confusing and unreadable as possible, you can do something like this:
SELECT IF(#firstRow=1, CONCAT('Dear', IF(#firstRow:=0, '', '')), 'dear')
FROM (SELECT #firstRow:=1) AS _init
CROSS JOIN
...
But remember this important metric of code quality: WTFs per minute.
Use a case expression instead of IF() as the syntax is far easier to follow e.g.
select
case when #firstRow = 1 then 'Dear' else 'dear' end AS Salutation
, #firstRow := 0
from (
select 1 n union all
select 2 n union all
select 3
) d
cross join (SELECT #firstRow:=1) var
+---+------------+----------------+
| | Salutation | #firstRow := 0 |
+---+------------+----------------+
| 1 | Dear | 0 |
| 2 | dear | 0 |
| 3 | dear | 0 |
+---+------------+----------------+

MySQL calculating query

I have this table, only two columns, each record stores an interest rate for a given month:
id rate
===========
199502 3.63
199503 2.60
199504 4.26
199505 4.25
... ...
201704 0.79
201705 0.93
201706 0.81
201707 0.80
201708 0.14
Based on this rates, I need to create another table of accumulated rates which similar structure, whose data is calculated as function of a YYYYMM (month/year) parameter, this way (this formula is legally mandatory):
The month given as parameter has always rate of 0 (zero)
The month immediately previous has always a rate of 1 (one)
The previous months' rates will be (one) plus the sum of rates of months between that given month and the month given as parameter.
I'll clarify this rules with this example, given parameter 201708:
SOURCE CALCULATED
id rate id rate
=========== =============
199502 3.63 199502 360.97 (1 + sum(rate(199503) to rate(201707)))
199503 2.60 199503 358.37 (1 + sum(rate(199504) to rate(201707)))
199504 4.26 199504 354.11 (1 + sum(rate(199505) to rate(201707)))
199505 4.25 199505 349.86 (1 + sum(rate(199506) to rate(201707)))
... ... ... ...
201704 0.79 201704 3.54 (1 + rate(201705) + rate(201706) + rate(201707))
201705 0.93 201705 2.61 (1 + rate(201706) + rate(201707))
201706 0.81 201706 1.80 (1 + rate(201707))
201707 0.80 201707 1.00 (per definition)
201708 0.14 201708 0.00 (per definition)
Now I've already implemented a VB.NET function that reads the source table and generates the calculated table, but this is done in runtime at each client machine:
Public Function AccumRates(targetDate As Date) As DataTable
Dim dtTarget = Rates.Clone
Dim targetId = targetDate.ToString("yyyyMM")
Dim targetIdAnt = targetDate.AddMonths(-1).ToString("yyyyMM")
For Each dr In Rates.Select("id<=" & targetId & " and id>199412")
If dr("id") = targetId Then
dtTarget.Rows.Add(dr("id"), 0)
ElseIf dr("id") = targetIdAnt Then
dtTarget.Rows.Add(dr("id"), 1)
Else
Dim intermediates =
Rates.Select("id>" & dr("id") & " and id<" & targetId).Select(
Function(ldr) New With {
.id = ldr.Field(Of Integer)("id"),
.rate = ldr.Field(Of Decimal)("rate")}
).ToArray
dtTarget.Rows.Add(
dr("id"),
1 + intermediates.Sum(
Function(i) i.rate))
End If
Next
Return dtTarget
End Function
My question is how can I put this as a query in my database so it can be used dynamically by other queries which would use these accumulated rates to update debts to any given date.
Thank you very much!
EDIT
I managed to make a query that returns the data I want, now I just don't know how to encapsulate it so that it can be called from another query passing any id as argument (here I did it using a SET ... statement):
SET #targetId=201708;
SELECT
id AS id_acum,
COALESCE(1 + (SELECT
SUM(taxa)
FROM
tableSelic AS ts
WHERE
id > id_acum AND id < #targetId
LIMIT 1),
IF(id >= #targetId, 0, 1)) AS acum
FROM
tableSelic
WHERE id>199412;
That's because I'm pretty new to MySQL, I'm used to MS-Access where parametrized queries are very straightfoward to create.
For example:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS my_table;
CREATE TABLE my_table
(id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
,rate DECIMAL(5,2) NOT NULL
);
INSERT INTO my_table VALUES
(201704,0.79),
(201705,0.93),
(201706,0.81),
(201707,0.80),
(201708,0.14);
SELECT *
, CASE WHEN #flag IS NULL THEN #i:=1 ELSE #i:=#i+rate END i
, #flag:=1 flag
FROM my_table
, (SELECT #flag:=null,#i:=0) vars
ORDER
BY id DESC;
+--------+------+-------------+-------+------+------+
| id | rate | #flag:=null | #i:=0 | i | flag |
+--------+------+-------------+-------+------+------+
| 201708 | 0.14 | NULL | 0 | 1 | 1 |
| 201707 | 0.80 | NULL | 0 | 1.80 | 1 |
| 201706 | 0.81 | NULL | 0 | 2.61 | 1 |
| 201705 | 0.93 | NULL | 0 | 3.54 | 1 |
| 201704 | 0.79 | NULL | 0 | 4.33 | 1 |
+--------+------+-------------+-------+------+------+
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Ok, I made it with a function:
CREATE FUNCTION `AccumulatedRates`(start_id integer, target_id integer) RETURNS decimal(6,2)
BEGIN
DECLARE select_var decimal(6,2);
SET select_var = (
SELECT COALESCE(1 + (
SELECT SUM(rate)
FROM tableRates
WHERE id > start_id AND id < target_id LIMIT 1
), IF(id >= unto, 0, 1)) AS acum
FROM tableRates
WHERE id=start_id);
RETURN select_var;
END
And them a simple query:
SELECT *, AccumulatedRates(id,#present_id) as acum FROM tableRates;
where #present_id is passed as parameter.
Thanks to all, anyway!

MySQL subtraction between varchar fields returns decimal with too much precision

The following subtraction query returns too many digits after the decimal mark.
mysql> select AA, BB, AA - BB, AA - 23.057, 22.659 - 23.057 from table1 where TID = '1';
+----------+----------+---------------------+---------------------+-----------------+
| AA | BB | AA - BB | AA - 23.057 | 22.659 - 23.057 |
+----------+----------+---------------------+---------------------+-----------------+
| 22.659 | 23.057 | -0.3979999999999997 | -0.3979999999999997 | -0.398 |
+----------+----------+---------------------+---------------------+-----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql>
I wish I could use a decimal fields, but the user wants to keep the precision he inserts at input time in the columns AA and BB, that's why VARCHAR is used for those column.
e.g.: 11.10 - 11.22 = - 0.02
11.20 - 11.10 = + 0.10
22.659 - 23.057 = -0.398
23.659 - 22.559 = 0.100
while 23.659 - 22.559 = 0.1 is wrong
Any help would greatly appreciate.
Thanks
You can use the format() function:
select format(col1 - col2, length(substring_index(col1, '.', -1)))
If you don't like the commas on larger numbers:
select replace(format(col1 - col2, length(substring_index(col1, '.', -1))), ',', '')

Get frequency distribution of a decimal range in MySQL

I'm looking for an elegant way (in terms of syntax, not necessarily efficient) to get the frequency distribution of a decimal range.
For example, I have a table with ratings column which can be a negative or positive. I want to get the frequency of rows with a rating of certain range.
- ...
- [-140.00 to -130.00): 5
- [-130.00 to -120.00): 2
- [-120.00 to -110.00): 1
- ...
- [120.00 to 130.00): 17
- and so on.
[i to j) means i inclusive to j exclusive.
Thanks in advance.
You could get pretty close using 'select floor(rating / 10), count(*) from (table) group by 1'
I was thinking of seomthing that could do many levels like
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE populate_stats()
BEGIN
DECLARE range_loop INT Default 500 ;
simple_loop: LOOP
SET the_next = range_loop - 10;
Select sum(case when range between range_loop and the_next then 1 else 0 end) from table,
IF the_next=-500 THEN
LEAVE simple_loop;
END IF;
END LOOP simple_loop;
END $$
usage: call populate_stats();
Would handle 100 ranges from 500-490, 490-480, ... -480 - -490, -490 - -500
assuming a finite number of ranges.
Select
sum(case when val between -140 to -130 then 1 else 0 end) as sum-140_to_-130,
sum(Case when val between -130 to -120 then 1 else 0 end) as sum-130_to_-140,
...
FROM table
and if not, you could use dynamic SQL to generate the select allowing a number of ranges however you may run into a column limitation.
Just put your desired ranges into a table, and use that to discriminate the values.
-- SET search_path='tmp';
DROP TABLE measurements;
CREATE TABLE measurements
( zval INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
);
INSERT INTO measurements (zval)
SELECT generate_series(1,1000);
DELETE FROM measurements WHERE random() < 0.20 ;
DROP TABLE ranges;
CREATE TABLE ranges
( zmin INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
, zmax INTEGER NOT NULL
);
INSERT INTO ranges(zmin,zmax) VALUES
(0, 100), (100, 200), (200, 300), (300, 400), (400, 500),
(500, 600), (600, 700), (700, 800), (800, 900), (900, 1000)
;
SELECT ra.zmin,ra.zmax
, COUNT(*) AS zcount
FROM ranges ra
JOIN measurements me
ON me.zval >= ra.zmin AND me.zval < ra.zmax
GROUP BY ra.zmin,ra.zmax
ORDER BY ra.zmin
;
Results:
zmin | zmax | zcount
------+------+--------
0 | 100 | 89
100 | 200 | 76
200 | 300 | 76
300 | 400 | 74
400 | 500 | 86
500 | 600 | 78
600 | 700 | 75
700 | 800 | 75
800 | 900 | 80
900 | 1000 | 82

How do I check to see if a value is an integer in MySQL?

I see that within MySQL there are Cast() and Convert() functions to create integers from values, but is there any way to check to see if a value is an integer? Something like is_int() in PHP is what I am looking for.
I'll assume you want to check a string value. One nice way is the REGEXP operator, matching the string to a regular expression. Simply do
select field from table where field REGEXP '^-?[0-9]+$';
this is reasonably fast. If your field is numeric, just test for
ceil(field) = field
instead.
Match it against a regular expression.

Re: IsNumeric() clause in MySQL??
Posted by: kevinclark ()
Date: August 08, 2005 01:01PM
I agree. Here is a function I created for MySQL 5:
CREATE FUNCTION IsNumeric (sIn varchar(1024)) RETURNS tinyint
RETURN sIn REGEXP '^(-|\\+){0,1}([0-9]+\\.[0-9]*|[0-9]*\\.[0-9]+|[0-9]+)$';
This allows for an optional plus/minus sign at the beginning, one optional decimal point, and the rest numeric digits.
Suppose we have column with alphanumeric field having entries like
a41q
1458
xwe8
1475
asde
9582
.
.
.
.
.
qe84
and you want highest numeric value from this db column (in this case it is 9582) then this query will help you
SELECT Max(column_name) from table_name where column_name REGEXP '^[0-9]+$'
Here is the simple solution for it
assuming the data type is varchar
select * from calender where year > 0
It will return true if the year is numeric else false
This also works:
CAST( coulmn_value AS UNSIGNED ) // will return 0 if not numeric string.
for example
SELECT CAST('a123' AS UNSIGNED) // returns 0
SELECT CAST('123' AS UNSIGNED) // returns 123 i.e. > 0
To check if a value is Int in Mysql, we can use the following query.
This query will give the rows with Int values
SELECT col1 FROM table WHERE concat('',col * 1) = col;
The best i could think of a variable is a int Is a combination with MySQL's functions CAST() and LENGTH().
This method will work on strings, integers, doubles/floats datatypes.
SELECT (LENGTH(CAST(<data> AS UNSIGNED))) = (LENGTH(<data>)) AS is_int
see demo http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/ff40cd/44
it will fail if the column has a single character value. if column has
a value 'A' then Cast('A' as UNSIGNED) will evaluate to 0 and
LENGTH(0) will be 1. so LENGTH(Cast('A' as UNSIGNED))=LENGTH(0) will
evaluate to 1=1 => 1
True Waqas Malik totally fogotten to test that case. the patch is.
SELECT <data>, (LENGTH(CAST(<data> AS UNSIGNED))) = CASE WHEN CAST(<data> AS UNSIGNED) = 0 THEN CAST(<data> AS UNSIGNED) ELSE (LENGTH(<data>)) END AS is_int;

What about:
WHERE table.field = "0" or CAST(table.field as SIGNED) != 0
to test for numeric and the corrolary:
WHERE table.field != "0" and CAST(table.field as SIGNED) = 0
I have tried using the regular expressions listed above, but they do not work for the following:
SELECT '12 INCHES' REGEXP '^(-|\\+){0,1}([0-9]+\\.[0-9]*|[0-9]*\\.[0-9]+|[0-9]+)$' FROM ...
The above will return 1 (TRUE), meaning the test of the string '12 INCHES' against the regular expression above, returns TRUE. It looks like a number based on the regular expression used above. In this case, because the 12 is at the beginning of the string, the regular expression interprets it as a number.
The following will return the right value (i.e. 0) because the string starts with characters instead of digits
SELECT 'TOP 10' REGEXP '^(-|\\+){0,1}([0-9]+\\.[0-9]*|[0-9]*\\.[0-9]+|[0-9]+)$' FROM ...
The above will return 0 (FALSE) because the beginning of the string is text and not numeric.
However, if you are dealing with strings that have a mix of numbers and letters that begin with a number, you will not get the results you want. REGEXP will interpret the string as a valid number when in fact it is not.
This works well for VARCHAR where it begins with a number or not..
WHERE concat('',fieldname * 1) != fieldname
may have restrictions when you get to the larger NNNNE+- numbers
for me the only thing that works is:
CREATE FUNCTION IsNumeric (SIN VARCHAR(1024)) RETURNS TINYINT
RETURN SIN REGEXP '^(-|\\+){0,1}([0-9]+\\.[0-9]*|[0-9]*\\.[0-9]+|[0-9]+)$';
from kevinclark all other return useless stuff for me in case of 234jk456 or 12 inches
