Here is my query. I have a colomun name "Played" (int). I update it as one if a match is played. so sum it later. Now i want number of matches played by a team to this query. But I have no idea how to add that.
Select DENSE_RANK() OVER(order by Point DESC,GD DESC) as Rank, * from (select TName, Sum(Score) as Score, Sum(GA) as GA,Sum(Diff) as GD,Sum(Point) as Point from (Select f.teamID,Score as Score, GA as GA,Score-GA as DIff,
case
when Result = 'W' then 3
when Result = 'D' then 1
Else 0
end as Point, T.TName,
from Fixtures F
inner join Teams T on t.TeamID = f.TeamID ) S
group by teamID,TName) SS
order by Point DESC,GD DESC
Do a count on result. That would get how many games they played

Given this query, if I want to pull the rank of a specific individual where I know there $name and $score and return the rows above/below that rank (say +/- 4), how would I go about doing that?
$query = "SELECT #curRank := #curRank + 1 AS Rank,
uniqueID,
name,
score
FROM scores, (SELECT #curRank := 0) r
ORDER by score DESC";
I'm coding in php, using MySQL and C# in Unity. My game is making a call to the server and running the php code. Goal is to echo the information and parse the information back in the game.
Any help would be much appreciated :)
Based off of your :=, I'm assuming you are using PostgreSQL, correct? I'm more familiar with the T-SQL syntax; but regardless, both PostgreSQL and T-SQL have windowing functions. You could implement something similar to the following (I left out variables for you to fill-in):
$query = "WITH scoreOrder
AS
(
SELECT uniqueID,
name,
score,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY score DESC, uniqueID DESC) AS RowNum
FROM scores
ORDER BY uniqueID DESC
)
SELECT ns.*
FROM scoreOrder ms --Your matching score
INNER JOIN scoreOrder ns --Your nearby scores
ON ms.name = /* your name variable */
AND ms.score = /* your score variable */
AND ns.RowNum BETWEEN ms.RowNum - /* your offset */ and ms.RowNum + /* your offset */";
Explanation: First, we're creating a common table expression called scoreOrder, and projecting a RowNum column for your scores. In short, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY score DESC, uniqueID DESC) is just saying, "I am returning the row number of this record ordered by score and uniqueID, both descending and in that order." Then, you join that CTE with itself... ms will be your score that you match with, and you join that with ns where the ns.RowNum will be between your ms.RowNum, plus or minus your offset.
There are a ton of other windowing functions. Here are some others that could be more or less appropriate for your scenario:
ROW_NUMBER() - the rownumber of the record
RANK() - the rank of the record, duplicating in ties and includes
gaps (i.e., if 2nd place ties, you would have 1st, 2nd, 2nd,
4th)
DENSE_RANK() - same as rank, except that it fills in the gaps
(i.e., if 2nd place ties, you would have 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd)
For more info, check the PostgreSQL documentation on windowing functions and their tutorial
Update:
Unfornately, MySQL does not support windowing functions or common table expressions. In your scenario, you will have to put the results of your previous query into a temp table, then doing a similar join as demonstrated above. So for example...
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE IF NOT EXISTS allRankings AS
(
SELECT #curRank := #curRank + 1 AS Rank,
uniqueID,
name,
score
FROM scores, (SELECT #curRank := 0) r
ORDER by score DESC, uniqueID
);
SELECT r.*
FROM allRankings r
INNER JOIN allRankings myRank
ON r.Rank BETWEEN myRank.Rank - <your offset> AND myRank.Rank + <your offset>
AND myRank.name = <your name>
AND myRank.score = <your score>
ORDER by r.Rank;
Here is a SQLFiddle link for an example. (I'm not using a temp table on SQLFiddle because you have to build tables in the Build Schema window).
I have a stored procedure that inserts a line in a table. This table has an auto incremented int primary key and a datetime2 column named CreationDate. I am calling it in a for loop via my C# code, and the loop is inside a transaction scope.
I run the program twice, first time with a for loop that turned 6 times and second time with a for loop that turned 2 times. When I executed this select on sql server I got a strange result
SELECT TOP 8
RequestId, CreationDate
FROM
PickupRequest
ORDER BY
CreationDate DESC
What I didn't get is the order of insertion: for example the line with Id=58001 has to be inserted after that with Id=58002 but this is not the case. Is that because I put my loop in a transaction scoope? or the precision in the datetime2 is not enough?
It is a question of speed and statement scope as well...
Try this:
--This will create a #numbers table with 1 mio numbers:
DECLARE #numbers TABLE(Nbr BIGINT);
WITH N(N) AS
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 1)
,MoreN(N) AS
(SELECT 1 FROM N AS N1 CROSS JOIN N AS N2 CROSS JOIN N AS N3 CROSS JOIN N AS N4 CROSS JOIN N AS N5 CROSS JOIN N AS N6)
INSERT INTO #numbers(Nbr)
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY (SELECT NULL))
FROM MoreN;
--This is a dummy table for inserts:
CREATE TABLE Dummy(ID INT IDENTITY,CreationDate DATETIME);
--Play around with the value for #Count. You can insert 1 mio rows in one go. Although this runs a while, all will have the same datetime value:
--Use a small number here and below, still the same time value
--Use a big count here and a small below will show a slightly later value for the second insert
DECLARE #Count INT = 1000;
INSERT INTO Dummy (CreationDate)
SELECT GETDATE()
FROM (SELECT TOP(#Count) 1 FROM #numbers) AS X(Y);
--A second insert
SET #Count = 10;
INSERT INTO Dummy (CreationDate)
SELECT GETDATE()
FROM (SELECT TOP(#Count) 1 FROM #numbers) AS X(Y);
SELECT * FROM Dummy;
--Clean up
GO
DROP TABLE Dummy;
You did your insertions pretty fast so the actual CreationDate values inserted in one program run had the same values. In case you're using datetime type, all the insertions may well occur in one millisecond. So ORDER BY CreationDate DESC by itself does not guarantee the select order to be that of insertion.
To get the desired order you need to sort by the RequestId as well:
SELECT TOP 8 RequestId, CreationDate
FROM PickupRequest
ORDER BY CreationDate DESC, RequestId DESC
I have a league with 3000 entrants. What I want to do is select only 50 of these but if the user does not exist in this top 50 I want to select that row also and display their current position, the below query shows I am selecting the top 50 positions from the main inner query which brings back all players and their positions. Now I want to show the current logged in user and their position so is there any way to select top 50 and the user's entry from the subset by amending the below? I.e. is it possible to run two selects on a subset like
SELECT TOP 50 AND SELECT TOP 1 (Where condition)
FROM
(
Subset
)
my Query
SELECT TOP 50 [LeagueID],
[EntryID],
[UserID],
[TotalPoints],
[TotalBonusPoints],
[TotalPointsLastEvnet],
[TotalBonusPointsLastRaceEvent],
[Prize],
[dbo].[GetTotalPool]([LeagueID]) AS [TotalPool],
DENSE_RANK() OVER( PARTITION BY [LeagueID] ORDER BY [TotalPoints] DESC, [TotalBonusPoints] DESC) AS [Position],
DENSE_RANK() OVER( PARTITION BY [LeagueID] ORDER BY [TotalPointsLastRace] DESC, [TotalBonusPointsLastRace] DESC) AS [PositionLastRace]
FROM
(
// inner query here bringing back all entrants
) AS DATA
You can use union for joining two subset of results: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/library/ms180026.aspx
Also if you need to populate result from same suset then you can use common table expression:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190766%28v=sql.105%29.aspx
The pseodocode:
with subset(...)
select top 50
union
select top 1
You can do this without a union. You just need or:
WITH data as (
// inner query here bringing back all entrants
)
SELECT * -- or whatever columns you really want
FROM (SELECT data.*
DENSE_RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY [LeagueID]
ORDER BY [TotalPoints] DESC, [TotalBonusPoints] DESC
) AS [Position],
DENSE_RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY [LeagueID]
ORDER BY [TotalPointsLastRace] DESC, [TotalBonusPointsLastRace] DESC
) AS [PositionLastRace],
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY [LeagueID]
ORDER BY [TotalPoints] DESC, [TotalBonusPoints] DESC
) as Position_Rownum
FROM data
) d
WHERE Position_RowNum <= 50 or UserId = #Current_userid
This uses row_number() to do what you wanted top to do. I note that your question does not include an order by clause, so I am guessing that you want the ordering by Position.
You can use a CTE instead of sub-query and SELECT TOP 50 and then SELECT TOP 1 and union all something like this....
;WITH CTE AS
(
// inner query here bringing back all entrants
)
SELECT TOP 50 * FROM CTE WHERE <Some Codition>
UNION ALL
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM CTE WHERE <Some other Codition>
Please try the following:
;WITH entrants
([LeagueID],[EntryID],[UserID],[TotalPoints],[TotalBonusPoints],[TotalPointsLastEvnet],
[TotalBonusPointsLastRaceEvent],[Prize],[TotalPool],[Position],[PositionLastRace])
AS
(
SELECT [LeagueID],
[EntryID],
[UserID],
[TotalPoints],
[TotalBonusPoints],
[TotalPointsLastEvnet],
[TotalBonusPointsLastRaceEvent],
[Prize],
[dbo].[GetTotalPool]([LeagueID]) AS [TotalPool],
DENSE_RANK() OVER( PARTITION BY [LeagueID] ORDER BY [TotalPoints] DESC, [TotalBonusPoints] DESC) AS [Position],
DENSE_RANK() OVER( PARTITION BY [LeagueID] ORDER BY [TotalPointsLastRace] DESC, [TotalBonusPointsLastRace] DESC) AS [PositionLastRace]
FROM
(
// inner query here bringing back all entrants
) AS DATA
)
SELECT TOP 50 * FROM entrants
UNION
SELECT * FROM entrants WHERE UserID = #current_userid
ORDER BY Position;
I have an SQL query which I want to call from LINQ to SQL in asp.net application.
SELECT TOP 5 *
FROM (SELECT SongId,
DateInserted,
ROW_NUMBER()
OVER(
PARTITION BY SongId
ORDER BY DateInserted DESC) rn
FROM DownloadHistory) t
WHERE t.rn = 1
ORDER BY DateInserted DESC
I don't know whether its possible or not through linq to sql, if not then please provide any other way around.
I think you'd have to change the SQL partition to a Linq group-by. (Effectively all the partition does is group by song, and select the newest row for each group.) So something like this:
IEnumerable<DownloadHistory> top5Results = DownloadHistory
// group by SongId
.GroupBy(row => row.SongId)
// for each group, select the newest row
.Select(grp =>
grp.OrderByDescending(historyItem => historyItem.DateInserted)
.FirstOrDefault()
)
// get the newest 5 from the results of the newest-1-per-song partition
.OrderByDescending(historyItem => historyItem.DateInserted)
.Take(5);
Although McGarnagle answer solves the problem, but when i see the execution plan for the two queries, it was really amazing to see that linq to sql was really too slow as compare to native sql queries. See the generated query for the above linq to sql:
--It took 99% of the two execution
SELECT TOP (5) [t3].[SongId], [t3].[DateInserted]
FROM (
SELECT [t0].[SongId]
FROM [dbo].[DownloadHistory] AS [t0]
GROUP BY [t0].[SongId]
) AS [t1]
OUTER APPLY (
SELECT TOP (1) [t2].[SongId], [t2].[DateInserted]
FROM [dbo].[DownloadHistory] AS [t2]
WHERE [t1].[SongId] = [t2].[SongId]
ORDER BY [t2].[DateInserted] DESC
) AS [t3]
ORDER BY [t3].[DateInserted] DESC
--It took 1% of the two execution
SELECT TOP 5 t.SongId,t.DateInserted
FROM (SELECT SongId,
DateInserted,
ROW_NUMBER()
OVER(
PARTITION BY SongId
ORDER BY DateInserted DESC) rn
FROM DownloadHistory) t
WHERE t.rn = 1
ORDER BY DateInserted DESC
i am trying to show the last order for the a specific customer on a grid view , what i did is showing all orders for the customer but i need the last order
here is my SQL code
SELECT orders.order_id, orders.order_date,
orders.payment_type, orders.cardnumber, packages.Package_name,
orders.package_id, packages.package_price
FROM orders INNER JOIN packages ON orders.package_id = packages.Package_ID
WHERE (orders.username = #username )
#username get its value from a cookie , now how can i choose the last order only for a cookie value " Tony " for example ?
To generalize (and fix a little bit) Mitch's answer, you need to use SELECT clause embellished with TOP(#N) and ORDER BY ... DESC. Note that I use TOP(#N), not TOP N, which means you can pass it as an argument to the stored procedure and return, say, not 1 but N last orders:
CREATE STORED PROCEDURE ...
#N int
...
SELECT TOP(#N) ...
ORDER BY ... DESC
SELECT top 1
orders.order_id,
orders.order_date,
orders.payment_type,
orders.cardnumber,
packages.Package_name,
orders.package_id,
packages.package_price
FROM orders
INNER JOIN packages ON orders.package_id = packages.Package_ID
WHERE (orders.username = #username )
ORDER BY orders.order_date DESC
In fact assuming orders.order_id is an Identity column:
SELECT top 1
orders.order_id,
orders.order_date,
orders.payment_type,
orders.cardnumber,
packages.Package_name,
orders.package_id,
packages.package_price
FROM orders
INNER JOIN packages ON orders.package_id = packages.Package_ID
WHERE (orders.username = #username )
ORDER BY orders.order_id DESC
