How to update rows of MySQL without stored function? - mysql

My cloud server doesn't allow stored function/procedure, so how to do this?
My table was:
|id |Status |
| 1 | Good |
| 2 | Badd |
| 3 | Good |
| 4 | Good |
I wanted it to be:
| 1 | Good |
| 3 | Badd |
| 4 | Good |
| 5 | Good |
Can this be done with one line of statement? Basically I want to change all id in rows where id>x to id+1. In this case, x = 2.
Update
Forgot to mention that id is unique so how to sort them desc then change?

You can use
UPDATE yourtable SET id = id + 1 WHERE id > 1 ORDER BY ID DESC;
there is a known "bug" or "feature" that you will face if id is unique but order by desc will help you to avoid it.

Try this
UPDATE `table` SET id = id + 1 WHERE id > 1

MySQL bitwise comparison

I have mysql with a user table with answers from a poll saved as a bitwise. How do I find the user with most or least common answers with the reference bitwise?
+------+---------+--+
| User | Answers | |
+------+---------+--+
| A | 1 | |
| B | 5 | |
| C | 10 | |
+------+---------+--+
Assuming by 'reference bitwise' you mean that you have another value that is a bitmask that you are trying to match against the Answers column, something like this should do it for you. In this case, I'm using '4' as the reference bitmask and myTable as the name of your table..
SELECT User, BIT_COUNT(Answers & 4) AS MatchedBits FROM myTable ORDER BY MatchedBits DESC
This returns:
+------+-------------+
| User | MatchedBits |
+------+-------------+
| B | 1 |
| A | 0 |
| C | 0 |
+------+-------------+
You can also add a LIMIT 1 clause to get just the top result, but of course that won't tell you if there is more than one top result with the same number of bits matched.

Select value from table sorted by a certain order from another table

I want to select value from table sorted by a certain order.
I have a table called test that looks like this:
| date | code | value |
+----------+-----------+----------+
| 20050104 | 000005.SZ | -6359.19 |
| 20050104 | 600601.SH | -7876.34 |
| 20050104 | 600602.SH | -25693.3 |
| 20050104 | 600651.SH | NULL |
| 20050104 | 600652.SH | -15309.9 |
...
| 20050105 | 000005.SZ | -4276.28 |
| 20050105 | 600601.SH | -3214.56 |
...
| 20170405 | 000005.SZ | 23978.13 |
| 20170405 | 600601.SH | 32212.54 |
Right now I want to select only one date, say date = 20050104, and then sort the data by a certain order (the order that each stock was listed in the stock market).
I have another table called stock_code which stores the correct order:
+---------+-----------+
| code_id | code |
+---------+-----------+
| 1 | 000002.SZ |
| 2 | 000004.SZ |
| 3 | 600656.SH |
| 4 | 600651.SH |
| 5 | 600652.SH |
| 6 | 600653.SH |
| 7 | 600654.SH |
| 8 | 600602.SH |
| 9 | 600601.SH |
| 10 | 000005.SZ |
...
I want to sorted the selected data by stock_code(code_id), but I don't want to use join because it takes too much time. Any thoughts?
I tried to use field but it gives me an error, please tell me how to correct it or give me an even better idea.
select * from test
where date = 20050104 and code in (select code from stock_code order by code)
order by field(code, (select code from stock_code order by code));
Error Code: 1242. Subquery returns more than 1 row
You told us that you don't want to join because it takes too much time, but the following join query is probably the best option here:
SELECT t.*
FROM test t
INNER JOIN stock_code sc
ON t.code = sc.code
WHERE t.date = '20050104'
ORDER BY sc.code_id
If this really runs slowly, then you should check to make sure you have indices setup on the appropriate columns. In this case, indices on the code columns from both tables as well as an index on test.date should be very helpful.
ALTER TABLE test ADD INDEX code_idx (code)
ALTER TABLE test ADD INDEX date_idx (date)
ALTER TABLE code ADD INDEX code_idx (code)

mySql Max function ot returning exact result

I don't know why i am not getting the exact result
SELECT MAX(MID(order_id,3,20)) As Id FROM `tbl_orders` WHERE `domain_id`=2
+------------+
| id |
+------------+
| 10121452 |
+------------+
Even i tried the same function without MID function
SELECT MAX(order_id) As Id FROM `tbl_orders` WHERE `domain_id`=2
+------------+
| id |
+------------+
| Hy10121452 |
+------------+
any my database have highest order
+--------+------------+
| id | order_id |
+--------+------------+
| 1 | Hy10121452 |
| 2 | Hy10121453 |
| 3 | Hy10121454 |
| 4 | Hy10121455 |
| 5 | Hy10121456 |
| 6 | Hy10121457 |
| 7 | Hy10121458 |
| 8 | Hy10121459 |
| 9 | Hy10121460 |
+--------+------------+
i have to increment in the highest number to generate new order No.
Is i am doing something wrong?
check your database -> table-> column the data does not contain the same values like this abc1 abc2 abc3 xxx1 if you differnt series then the result always wrong
Change MAX(MID(order_id,3,20)) to MAX(MID(order_id,3,))
Syntax:from W3School
SELECT MID(column_name,start[,length]) AS some_name FROM table_name;
where
column_name Required. The field to extract characters from
start Required. Specifies the starting position (starts at 1)
length Optional. The number of characters to return. If omitted, the MID() function returns the rest of the text
Since you want the highest id then you can use order by DESC and limit
SELECT order_id As Id FROM `tbl_orders` WHERE `domain_id`=2 ORDER BY order_id DESC LIMIT 1
Problem Solved i just have to rectify Order_id column it contains the duplicate entries. duplicate entries removed and problem solved like a charm.

Sort table records in special order

I have table:
+----+--------+----------+
| id | doc_id | next_req |
+----+--------+----------+
| 1 | 1 | 4 |
| 2 | 1 | 3 |
| 3 | 1 | 0 |
| 4 | 1 | 2 |
+----+--------+----------+
id - auto incerement primary key.
nex_req - represent an order of records. (next_req = id of record)
How can I build a SQL query get records in this order:
+----+--------+----------+
| id | doc_id | next_req |
+----+--------+----------+
| 1 | 1 | 4 |
| 4 | 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 1 | 3 |
| 3 | 1 | 0 |
+----+--------+----------+
Explains:
record1 with id=1 and next_req=4 means: next must be record4 with id=4 and next_req=2
record4 with id=5 and next_req=2 means: next must be record2 with id=2 and next_req=3
record2 with id=2 and next_req=3 means: next must be record3 with id=1 and next_req=0
record3 with id=3 and next_req=0: means that this is a last record
I need to store an order of records in table. It's important fo me.
If you can, change your table format. Rather than naming the next record, mark the records in order so you can use a natural SQL sort:
+----+--------+------+
| id | doc_id | sort |
+----+--------+------+
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 4 | 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 1 | 3 |
| 3 | 1 | 4 |
+----+--------+------+
Then you can even cluster-index on doc_id,sort for if you need to for performance issues. And honestly, if you need to re-order rows, it is not any more work than a linked-list like you were working with.
Am able to give you a solution in Oracle,
select id,doc_id,next_req from table2
start with id =
(select id from table2 where rowid=(select min(rowid) from table2))
connect by prior next_req=id

I'd suggest to modify your table and add another column OrderNumber, so eventually it would be easy to order by this column.
Though there may be problems with this approach:
1) You have existing table and need to set OrderNumber column values. I guess this part is easy. You can simply set initial zero values and add a CURSOR for example moving through your records and incrementing your order number value.
2) When new row appears in your table, you have to modify your OrderNumber, but here it depends on your particular situation. If you only need to add items to the end of the list then you can set your new value as MAX + 1. In another situation you may try writing TRIGGER on inserting new items and calling similar steps to point 1). This may cause very bad hit on performance, so you have to carefully investigate your architecture and maybe modify this unusual construction.

SQL 'COUNT' not returning what I expect, and somehow limiting results to one row

Some background: an 'image' is part of one 'photoshoot', and may be a part of zero or many 'galleries'. My tables:
'shoots' table:
+----+--------------+
| id | name |
+----+--------------+
| 1 | Test shoot |
| 2 | Another test |
| 3 | Final test |
+----+--------------+
'images' table:
+----+-------------------+------------------+
| id | original_filename | storage_location |
+----+-------------------+------------------+
| 1 | test.jpg | store/test.jpg |
| 2 | test.jpg | store/test.jpg |
| 3 | test.jpg | store/test.jpg |
+----+-------------------+------------------+
'shoot_images' table:
+----------+----------+
| shoot_id | image_id |
+----------+----------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 |
+----------+----------+
'gallery_images' table:
+------------+----------+
| gallery_id | image_id |
+------------+----------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 3 |
| 3 | 1 |
| 4 | 1 |
+------------+----------+
What I'd like to get back, so I can say 'For this photoshoot, there are X images in total, and these images are featured in Y galleries:
+----+--------------+-------------+---------------+
| id | name | image_count | gallery_count |
+----+--------------+-------------+---------------+
| 3 | Final test | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | Another test | 0 | 0 |
| 1 | Test shoot | 2 | 4 |
+----+--------------+-------------+---------------+
I'm currently trying the SQL below, which appears to work correctly but only ever returns one row. I can't work out why this is happening. Curiously, the below also returns a row even when 'shoots' is empty.
SELECT shoots.id,
shoots.name,
COUNT(DISTINCT shoot_images.image_id) AS image_count,
COUNT(DISTINCT gallery_images.gallery_id) AS gallery_count
FROM shoots
LEFT JOIN shoot_images ON shoots.id=shoot_images.shoot_id
LEFT JOIN gallery_images ON shoot_images.image_id=gallery_images.image_id
ORDER BY shoots.id DESC
Thanks for taking the time to look at this :)
You are missing the GROUP BY clause:
SELECT
shoots.id,
shoots.name,
COUNT(DISTINCT shoot_images.image_id) AS image_count,
COUNT(DISTINCT gallery_images.gallery_id) AS gallery_count
FROM shoots
LEFT JOIN shoot_images ON shoots.id=shoot_images.shoot_id
LEFT JOIN gallery_images ON shoot_images.image_id=gallery_images.image_id
GROUP BY 1, 2 -- Added this line
ORDER BY shoots.id DESC
Note: The SQL standard allows GROUP BY to be given either column names or column numbers, so GROUP BY 1, 2 is equivalent to GROUP BY shoots.id, shoots.name in this case. There are many who consider this "bad coding practice" and advocate always using the column names, but I find it makes the code a lot more readable and maintainable and I've been writing SQL since before many users on this site were born, and it's never cause me a problem using this syntax.
FYI, the reason you were getting one row before, and not getting and error, is that in mysql, unlike any other database I know, you are allowed to omit the group by clause when using aggregating functions. In such cases, instead of throwing a syntax exception, mysql returns the first row for each unique combination of non-aggregate columns.
Although at first this may seem abhorrent to SQL purists, it can be incredibly handy!
You should look into the MySQL function group by.
