MySQL pivoting not working as expected - mysql

Schema:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `questions_tags`;
CREATE TABLE `questions_tags` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`tag_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`question_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)

INSERT INTO `questions_tags` VALUES ('4', '4', '1');
INSERT INTO `questions_tags` VALUES ('5', '5', '1');
INSERT INTO `questions_tags` VALUES ('6', '2', '2');
Data:
id tag_id question_id
1 1 1
2 2 1
3 3 1
4 4 1
5 5 1
6 2 2
What I've tried:
SELECT
question_id,
CASE WHEN tag_id = 1 THEN 'TAG1' END AS FirstTag,
CASE WHEN tag_id = 2 THEN 'TAG2' END AS SecondTag,
CASE WHEN tag_id = 3 THEN 'TAG3' END AS ThirdTag,
CASE WHEN tag_id = 4 THEN 'TAG4' END AS FourthTag,
CASE WHEN tag_id = 5 THEN 'TAG5' END AS FifthTag
FROM questions_tags
GROUP BY question_id;
Current Output:
Expected Output:
Is there something that I misjudged about Pivoting? Any help is appreciated.

Use aggregation on the case expressions.
SELECT
question_id,
max(CASE WHEN tag_id = 1 THEN 'TAG1' END) AS FirstTag,
max(CASE WHEN tag_id = 2 THEN 'TAG2' END) AS SecondTag,
max(CASE WHEN tag_id = 3 THEN 'TAG3' END) AS ThirdTag,
max(CASE WHEN tag_id = 4 THEN 'TAG4' END) AS FourthTag,
max(CASE WHEN tag_id = 5 THEN 'TAG5' END) AS FifthTag
FROM questions_tags
GROUP BY question_id;

Find DISTINCT LAST record with SQL LEFT JOIN

I'm running MySQL 5.6.
I have two related tables:
CREATE TABLE Cars (
id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
plate VARCHAR(16) NOT NULL,
flag TINYINT,
PRIMARY KEY(id)
)
and:
CREATE TABLE Rents (
id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
out_date DATE NOT NULL,
in_date DATE,
car_id INT,
FOREIGN KEY (car_id) REFERENCES Cars(id),
PRIMARY KEY(id)
)
I can have multiple rents for each car (0 to many).
I need to select all vehicles in table Cars (with flag = 1) along with their status i.e. I need to know if each car is currently unavailable (only out_date is filled) or availabe (out_date and in_date filled) of course also vehicles without any rents are to be considered available.
The result set need to include out_date and in_date values [Update 17/07/2022].
I tought to use something like:
SELECT
*,
IF(Rents.in_date IS NOT NULL AND Rents.out_date IS NOT NULL, 1, IF(Rents.id IS NULL, 1, 0)) AS status
FROM Cars
LEFT JOIN Rents ON Cars.id = Rent.Car_id WHERE Cars.Flag = 1
but this of course will just return all the rows with positive flag match and a status evaluation (0 unavailable, 1 available):
id | plate | flag | id | out_date | in_date | car_id | status
---------------------------------------------------------------------
'1', 'FA787MX', '1', '1', '2022-07-14', '2022-07-15', '1', '1'
'1', 'FA787MX', '1', '2', '2022-07-16', NULL, '1', '0'
'3', 'AB124DF', '1', '4', '2022-07-13', '2022-07-14', '3', '1'
'4', 'CC666VC', '1', NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, '1'
'5', 'GG435ED', '1', '5', '2022-07-16', NULL, '5', '0'
While I need to have this (edited 17/07/2022):
'1', 'FA787MX', '1', '2', '2022-07-16', NULL, '1', '0'
'3', 'AB124DF', '1', '4', '2022-07-13', '2022-07-14', '3', '1'
'4', 'CC666VC', '1', NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, '1'
'5', 'GG435ED', '1', '5', '2022-07-16', NULL, '5', '0'
i.e. only the second row of FA787MX car should be mantained since it's the most recent out_date value (no matter if it's id is higher or lower).
For the sake of completeness: There is no guarantee that rental ids will be kept consistent with their rental history. In other words you cannot be sure that for a given car the rental where in_date = NULL is the correct one but you should compare them by out_date value.
Data sample:
INSERT INTO `Cars` (`id`, `plate`, `flag`) VALUES (1, 'FA787MX', 1);
INSERT INTO `Cars` (`id`, `plate`, `flag`) VALUES (2, 'EX431YY', 0);
INSERT INTO `Cars` (`id`, `plate`, `flag`) VALUES (3, 'AB124DF', 1);
INSERT INTO `Cars` (`id`, `plate`, `flag`) VALUES (4, 'CC666VC', 1);
INSERT INTO `Cars` (`id`, `plate`, `flag`) VALUES (5, 'GG435ED', 1);
INSERT INTO `Rents` (`id`, `out_date`, `in_date`, `car_id`) VALUES (1, '2022-07-14', '2022-07-15', 1);
INSERT INTO `Rents` (`id`, `out_date`, `in_date`, `car_id`) VALUES (2, '2022-07-16', NULL, 1);
INSERT INTO `Rents` (`id`, `out_date`, `in_date`, `car_id`) VALUES (3, '2022-07-16', NULL, 2);
INSERT INTO `Rents` (`id`, `out_date`, `in_date`, `car_id`) VALUES (4, '2022-07-13', '2022-07-14', 3);
INSERT INTO `Rents` (`id`, `out_date`, `in_date`, `car_id`) VALUES (5, '2022-07-16', NULL, 5);
One option is to join to find only those rentals that are still outstanding (in_date IS NULL). That will drop the old rentals having in_date not null.
Based on the updated requirements, there are a few ways to do it. One is a simple outer join to find the most recent rental per car to obtain the corresponding in_date as well...
MySQL 5.6 fiddle
SELECT Cars.*
, Rents.out_date
, Rents.in_date
, Rents.id IS NULL OR Rents.in_date IS NOT NULL AS status_final
FROM Cars
LEFT JOIN Rents
ON Cars.id = Rents.Car_id
LEFT JOIN Rents AS r2
ON Rents.out_date < r2.out_date
AND Rents.Car_id = r2.Car_id
WHERE Cars.Flag = 1
AND r2.Car_id IS NULL
ORDER BY Cars.id
;
The result:

Based on the original requirements: Try this (fiddle):
SELECT Cars.*
, Rents.in_date
, CASE WHEN in_date IS NOT NULL OR Rents.id IS NULL THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS status_final
FROM Cars
LEFT JOIN Rents
ON Cars.id = Rents.Car_id
AND in_date IS NULL
WHERE Cars.Flag = 1
;
and if the results contain only those with in_date IS NULL, this reduces to:
SELECT Cars.*
, out_date
, Rents.in_date
, Rents.id IS NULL AS status_final
FROM Cars
LEFT JOIN Rents
ON Cars.id = Rents.Car_id
AND in_date IS NULL
WHERE Cars.Flag = 1
;
Result:
id

If your version of MySql is 8.0+ use ROW_NUMBER() window function to pick the latest row for each car in Rents:
SELECT c.*, r.*,
r.out_date IS NULL OR r.in_date IS NOT NULL status
FROM Cars c
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY car_id ORDER BY out_date DESC) rn
FROM Rents
) r ON r.car_id = c.id AND r.rn = 1
WHERE c.flag = 1;
For previous versions use NOT EXISTS:
SELECT c.*, r.*,
r.out_date IS NULL OR r.in_date IS NOT NULL status
FROM Cars c
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT r1.*
FROM Rents r1
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM Rents r2
WHERE r2.car_id = r1.car_id AND r2.out_date > r1.out_date
)
) r ON r.car_id = c.id
WHERE c.flag = 1;
See the demo.
If you imagine the result of your query as a table, you can easily write a query that would give you what you need (the subquery is just yours with the select spelled out to give a unique column name to the second id column, as it seemed useful - the only way to uniquely identify a row):
SELECT MAX(rent_id) FROM (
SELECT
Cars.id as id,
plate,
flag,
Rents.id as rent_id,
out_date,
in_date,
car_id,
IF(Rents.in_date IS NOT NULL AND Rents.out_date IS NOT NULL, 1, IF(Rents.id IS NULL, 1, 0)) AS status
FROM Cars
LEFT JOIN Rents ON Cars.id = Rents.car_id WHERE Cars.Flag = 1
) as rental_status
WHERE status = 0
GROUP BY car_id;
Which tells you which rows are interesting:
+--------------+
| MAX(rent_id) |
+--------------+
| 2 |
| 5 |
+--------------+
Now you can use a join to return the results of your initial query only for the interesting rows. To avoid having to spell out that query all over again, MySQL 8 has a way to stash the results of your core query and use it like a table:
WITH
status_data AS (
SELECT
Cars.id as id,
plate,
flag,
Rents.id as rent_id,
out_date,
in_date,
car_id,
IF(Rents.in_date IS NOT NULL AND Rents.out_date IS NOT NULL, 1, IF(Rents.id IS NULL, 1, 0)) AS status
FROM Cars
LEFT JOIN Rents ON Cars.id = Rents.car_id WHERE Cars.Flag = 1
)
SELECT * from status_data
JOIN (
SELECT MAX(rent_id) as rent_id FROM status_data
WHERE status = 0
GROUP BY car_id
) as ids using(rent_id);
Giving the result:
+---------+----+---------+------+------------+---------+--------+--------+
| rent_id | id | plate | flag | out_date | in_date | car_id | status |
+---------+----+---------+------+------------+---------+--------+--------+
| 2 | 1 | FA787MX | 1 | 2022-07-16 | NULL | 1 | 0 |
| 5 | 5 | GG435ED | 1 | 2022-07-16 | NULL | 5 | 0 |
+---------+----+---------+------+------------+---------+--------+--------+

Query for any person has any account of type x

Imagine I have two tables, Person and Account, a person can have accounts (type 1 and/or 2).
I'd like to get a list of people who have at least one type 1 account, and also get a list of people who don't have a type 1 account. I'm using Query #1 and #2 for this respectively but I think I'm doing something is wrong because the results do not match.

EXISTS and NOT EXISTS are the more suitable solutions for this requirement:
-- Account type = 1
SELECT p.* FROM Person AS p
WHERE EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM Accounts AS a
WHERE a.PersonId = p.PersonId AND a.Type = 1
);
-- No type 1 account
SELECT p.* FROM Person AS p
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM Accounts AS a
WHERE a.PersonId = p.PersonId AND a.Type = 1
);

MySQL Case Function combine with NOT IN Function

CREATE TABLE tree (
`id` INTEGER,
`p_id` VARCHAR(4)
);
INSERT INTO tree
(`id`, `p_id`)
VALUES
('1', null),
('2', '1'),
('3', '1'),
('4', '2'),
('5', '2');
CREATE TABLE Result (
`id` INTEGER,
`Type` VARCHAR(5)
);
INSERT INTO Result
(`id`, `Type`)
VALUES
('1', 'Root'),
('2', 'Inner'),
('3', 'Leaf'),
('4', 'Leaf'),
('5', 'Leaf');
SELECT
id
,CASE
WHEN p_id is NULL THEN 'Root'
WHEN id IN (
SELECT p_id
FROM tree)
THEN 'INNER'
WHEN id NOT IN(
SELECT p_id
FROM tree)
THEN 'LEAF'
END AS Type
FROM tree
Return
id Type
1 Root
2 INNER
3 null
4 null
5 null
Prefere Return
1 Root
2 INNER
3 LEAF
4 LEAF
5 LEAF
and also can i get any suggestion which function can be use with case function in MySQL Function
here is how you can do it :
select distinct t.*,case when t.p_id is null then 'root'
when p.p_id is null then 'leaf'
else 'inner'
end as type
from tree t
left join tree p on p.p_id = t.id
db<>fiddle here
Change the NOT IN subquery to filter out p_id = NULL, because when you compare with that you get NULL.
SELECT
id
,CASE
WHEN p_id is NULL THEN 'Root'
WHEN id IN (
SELECT p_id
FROM tree)
THEN 'INNER'
WHEN id NOT IN (
SELECT p_id
FROM tree
WHERE p_id IS NOT NULL)
THEN 'LEAF'
END AS Type
FROM tree

However, I actually recommend you use the LEFT JOIN method in #eshirvana's answer.

How to get rows ordered by desc from specific ids

My goal : Getting Purchase requests ordered by most confirmed shipment locations.
Purchase requests are linked to a shipment location (warehouse).
I have a table :
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `shipment_locations` (
`id` int(6) primary key,
`name` varchar(200) NOT NULL
);
INSERT INTO `shipment_locations` (`id`, `name`) VALUES
('1', 'france'),
('2', 'usa'),
('3', 'spain'),
('4', 'germany');
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `purchase_requests` (
`id` int(6) primary key,
`name` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
`total_cost_confirmed` int(6) NULL,
`shipment_location_id` int(6) NULL,
FOREIGN KEY (`shipment_location_id`) REFERENCES `shipment_locations` (`id`)
);
INSERT INTO `purchase_requests` (`id`, `name`, `total_cost_confirmed`, `shipment_location_id`) VALUES
('1', 'pr1', '109', 1),
('2', 'pr2', '1500', 3),
('3', 'pr3', '3000', 2),
('4', 'pr4', '10000', 2),
('5', 'pr5', '5', 3),
('6', 'pr6', '3000', 2),
('7', 'pr7', '3000', 2),
('8', 'pr8', '1', 3),
('9', 'pr9', '10000000', 3);
For ordering by shipment location that have the most confirmed cost, it's pretty simple :
SELECT shipment_location_id, SUM(total_cost_confirmed) totalConfirmed
FROM purchase_requests
GROUP BY shipment_location_id
ORDER BY totalConfirmed DESC
It works perfectly here : http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/732f32/2/0
But, then I tried to filter by purchase request id (adding GROUP BY id and WHERE id IN(...)) it gives me the wrong order (because it's taking ids present in the result).
=> (sqlfiddle)
How I can keep the correct order from the first query while filtering by Purchase request id ?
Adding sqlfiddle : Sqlfiddle
Thanks by advance for your help :)
First aggregate to get the sum of totalConfirmed and then join to the table:
SELECT p.id, p.name, p.shipment_location_id, t.totalConfirmed
FROM purchase_requests p
INNER JOIN (
SELECT shipment_location_id, SUM(total_cost_confirmed) totalConfirmed
FROM purchase_requests
GROUP BY shipment_location_id
) t ON t.shipment_location_id = p.shipment_location_id
WHERE p.id IN ('1', '3', '4', '8')
ORDER BY t.totalConfirmed DESC
See the demo.
Results:
> id | name | shipment_location_id | totalConfirmed
> -: | :--- | -------------------: | -------------:
> 4 | pr4 | 2 | 19000
> 3 | pr3 | 2 | 19000
> 8 | pr8 | 1 | 110
> 1 | pr1 | 1 | 110

MySQL: Count Columns Per Row

I just want to know if counting columns is possible as you're counting rows without calling each column name. For example:
SELECT COUNT(FOUND COLUMNS) AS counted FROM table WHERE a_value EXISTS IN COLUMNS
/*
The same as this specified one. This is working but I'm
looking for another approach without calling each column name.
SELECT (IF(col1="Y",1,0) + IF(col2="Y",1,0)) as counted FROM table
*/
Which I wish will throw results per row like:
| counted |
|-----------|
| 2 |
| 1 |
| 0 |
IS THAT POSSIBLE? If yes, how?
SELECT COUNT(COLUMN_NAME)
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_CATALOG = 'database' AND TABLE_SCHEMA = 'dbo'
AND TABLE_NAME = 'table'
Try this it will work.
I think you are looking for that
THE SCHEMA
CREATE TABLE `numbers`( `col1` INT, `col2` INT, `col3` INT, `col4` INT );
INSERT INTO `numbers` (`col1`, `col2`, `col3`, `col4`) VALUES ('0', '0', '0', '6');
INSERT INTO `numbers` (`col1`, `col2`, `col3`, `col4`) VALUES ('1', '0', '0', '9');
INSERT INTO `numbers` (`col1`, `col2`, `col3`, `col4`) VALUES ('4', '1', '0', '2');
INSERT INTO `numbers` (`col1`, `col2`, `col3`, `col4`) VALUES ('9', '5', '1', '3');
INSERT INTO `numbers` (`col1`, `col2`, `col3`, `col4`) VALUES ('5', '0', '6', '4');
INSERT INTO `numbers` (`col1`, `col2`, `col3`, `col4`) VALUES ('2', '0', '1', '6');
INSERT INTO `numbers` (`col1`, `col2`, `col3`, `col4`) VALUES ('8', '5', '6', '7');
COUNT THE VALUE '0' OF EACH ROW
SELECT (c1+c2+c3+c4) AS counted FROM
(
SELECT
CASE WHEN col1 = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c1,
CASE WHEN col2 = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c2,
CASE WHEN col3 = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c3,
CASE WHEN col4 = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c4
FROM numbers
) AS temp_count
/RESULT/
counted
3
2
1
0
1
1
0
COUNT THE VALUE '7' OF EACH ROW
SELECT (c1+c2+c3+c4) AS counted FROM
(
SELECT
CASE WHEN col1 = 7 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c1,
CASE WHEN col2 = 7 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c2,
CASE WHEN col3 = 7 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c3,
CASE WHEN col4 = 7 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS c4
FROM numbers
) AS temp_count
So you must replace the value of col1 = 7,col2 = 7,col3 = 7,col4 = 7, if you want check the others value.
