This a simple my table
+-----------+----------------+-----------+
| id | date | meter |
------------+----------------+-----------+
| 1 | 2103-11-01 | 5 |
| 2 | 2103-11-10 | 8 |
| 4 | 2103-11-14 | 10 |
| 6 | 2103-11-20 | 18 |
| 7 | 2103-11-25 | 25 |
| 10 | 2103-11-29 | 30 |
+-----------+----------------+-----------+
how do I get the results to the use of meters between two ranges of the results of recording time,
like bellow
+----------------+----------------+-------+-----+--------+
| date1 | date2 | start | end | amount |
+----------------+----------------+-------+-----+--------+
| 2013-11-01 | 2013-11-10 | 5 | 8 | 3 |
| 2013-11-10 | 2013-11-14 | 8 | 10 | 2 |
| 2013-11-14 | 2013-11-20 | 10 | 18 | 8 |
| 2013-11-20 | 2013-11-25 | 18 | 25 | 7 |
| 2013-11-25 | 2013-11-29 | 25 | 30 | 5 |
+----------------+----------------+-------+-----+--------+

Answer 1

Edit:
I got it:
select meters1.date as date1, min(meters2.date) as date2, meters1.meter as start,
meters2.meter as end, (meters2.meter - meters1.meter) as amount
from meters meters1, meters meters2 where meters1.date < meters2.date
group by date1;
Outputs:
+------------+------------+-------+-----+--------+
| date1 | date2 | start | end | amount |
+------------+------------+-------+-----+--------+
| 2013-11-01 | 2013-11-10 | 5 | 8 | 3 |
| 2013-11-10 | 2013-11-14 | 8 | 10 | 2 |
| 2013-11-14 | 2013-11-20 | 10 | 18 | 8 |
| 2013-11-20 | 2013-11-25 | 18 | 25 | 7 |
| 2013-11-25 | 2013-11-29 | 25 | 30 | 5 |
+------------+------------+-------+-----+--------+
Original Post:
This is most of the way there:
select meters1.date as date1, meters2.date as date2, meters1.meter as start,
meters2.meter as end, (meters2.meter - meters1.meter) as amount
from meters meters1, meters meters2 having date1 < date2 order by date1;
It outputs:
+------------+------------+-------+-----+--------+
| date1 | date2 | start | end | amount |
+------------+------------+-------+-----+--------+
| 2013-11-01 | 2013-11-10 | 5 | 8 | 3 |
| 2013-11-01 | 2013-11-20 | 5 | 18 | 13 |
| 2013-11-01 | 2013-11-29 | 5 | 30 | 25 |
| 2013-11-01 | 2013-11-14 | 5 | 10 | 5 |
| 2013-11-01 | 2013-11-25 | 5 | 25 | 20 |
| 2013-11-10 | 2013-11-20 | 8 | 18 | 10 |
| 2013-11-10 | 2013-11-29 | 8 | 30 | 22 |
| 2013-11-10 | 2013-11-14 | 8 | 10 | 2 |
| 2013-11-10 | 2013-11-25 | 8 | 25 | 17 |
| 2013-11-14 | 2013-11-25 | 10 | 25 | 15 |
| 2013-11-14 | 2013-11-20 | 10 | 18 | 8 |
| 2013-11-14 | 2013-11-29 | 10 | 30 | 20 |
| 2013-11-20 | 2013-11-25 | 18 | 25 | 7 |
| 2013-11-20 | 2013-11-29 | 18 | 30 | 12 |

Answer 2

If it's SQL server try it this way
WITH cte AS
(
SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY date) rnum
FROM table1
)
SELECT c.date date1, p.date date2, c.meter [start], p.meter [end], p.meter - c.meter amount
FROM cte c JOIN cte p
ON c.rnum = p.rnum - 1
Here is SQLFiddle demo
If it's MySQL then you can do
SELECT date1, date2, meter1, meter2, meter2 - meter1 amount
FROM
(
SELECT #d date2, date date1, #m meter2, meter meter1, #d := date, #m := meter
FROM table1 CROSS JOIN (SELECT #d := NULL, #m := NULL) i
ORDER BY date DESC
) q
WHERE date2 IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY date1
Here is SQLFiddle demo
Output in both cases:
| DATE1 | DATE2 | START | END | AMOUNT |
|------------|------------|-------|-----|--------|
| 2103-11-01 | 2103-11-10 | 5 | 8 | 3 |
| 2103-11-10 | 2103-11-14 | 8 | 10 | 2 |
| 2103-11-14 | 2103-11-20 | 10 | 18 | 8 |
| 2103-11-20 | 2103-11-25 | 18 | 25 | 7 |
| 2103-11-25 | 2103-11-29 | 25 | 30 | 5 |

Answer 3

MySql
SELECT DATES.date1,
DATES.date2,
m1.meter as start,
m2.meter as end,
m2.meter - m1.meter as amount
FROM
(SELECT date as date1,
(SELECT min(date)
FROM tableName t2
WHERE t2.date > t1.date) as date2
FROM tableName t1
)DATES,
tableName m1,
tableName m2
WHERE DATES.date2 IS NOT NULL
AND m1.date = DATES.date1
AND m2.date = DATES.date2
ORDER BY DATES.date1
sqlFiddle here
in MS-SQL SERVER 2002 change the word end to "end" as it complains about syntax near end

Answer 4

You haven't made it clear whether you're really using mySQL or SQL Server but I'm posting a solution that works for SQL 2008 and above. Might work for 2005 but I can't test that.
-- Set up a temp table with sample data
DECLARE #testData AS TABLE(
id int,
dt date,
meter int)
INSERT #testData(id, dt, meter) VALUES
(1, '2013-11-01', 5)
,(2, '2013-11-10', 8)
,(4, '2013-11-14', 10)
,(6, '2013-11-20', 18)
,(7, '2013-11-25', 25)
,(10, '2013-11-29',30)
---------------------------------------------
-- Begin SQL Server solution
;WITH cte AS (
SELECT
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY id) AS rownum
,id
,dt
,meter
FROM
#testData AS [date2]
)
SELECT
t1.id
,t1.dt AS [date1]
,t2.dt AS [date2]
,t1.meter AS [start]
,t2.meter AS [end]
,t2.meter - t1.meter AS [amount]
FROM
cte t1
LEFT OUTER JOIN cte t2 ON (t2.rownum = t1.rownum + 1)
WHERE
t2.dt IS NOT NULL

Answer 5

If you're using MySQL, then a self-join will work well here. Join the table to itself, using an ON clause to make sure you don't join the same record to itself. This will give you ((N * N) - N) permutations of your data, where N is the number of original rows.
SELECT
...
FROM
tableName first
JOIN
tableName second
ON first.id != second.id
Then, it's all about SELECTing the right stuff (including the calculation of the difference between the two meter values). To get the columns in the result set you posted, you'd probably want to SELECT:
first.date AS date1,
second.date AS date2,
first.meter AS start,
second.meter AS end,
ABS(first.meter - second.meter) AS amount
Edit
Ah, I see. I'd envisioned something like a inter-city mileage chart that you used to see on road maps (where you'd have the same cities in the rows and columns, and the cell in the intersection would indicate the number of miles between those two cities.
But it looks like you just want to compare values from one date to the next. If that's the case, you can take advantage of the way MySQL handles GROUPing and ORDERing... but be careful, because I'm not sure this is guaranteed:
mysql> SELECT
table1.date AS date1,
table2.date AS date2,
table1.meter AS start,
table2.meter AS end,
ABS(table1.meter - table2.meter) AS amount
FROM tableName table1
JOIN tableName table2
WHERE table2.date > table1.date
GROUP BY table1.date
ORDER BY table2.date - table1.date;
+---------------------+---------------------+-------+------+--------+
| date1 | date2 | start | end | amount |
+---------------------+---------------------+-------+------+--------+
| 2103-11-25 00:00:00 | 2103-11-29 00:00:00 | 25 | 30 | 5 |
| 2103-11-10 00:00:00 | 2103-11-14 00:00:00 | 8 | 10 | 2 |
| 2103-11-20 00:00:00 | 2103-11-25 00:00:00 | 18 | 25 | 7 |
| 2103-11-14 00:00:00 | 2103-11-20 00:00:00 | 10 | 18 | 8 |
| 2103-11-01 00:00:00 | 2103-11-10 00:00:00 | 5 | 8 | 3 |
