Here Quantity is the number of products sold in each year. Price is the sale price of each product.
I hope you have created the tables in your oracle database. Now try to solve the below SQL queries.
1. Write a SQL query to find the products which have continuous increase in sales every year?
Select t2.product_name from (
Select product_id from (
Select product_id, year, curr_sales - NVL(lag(curr_sales) over(partition by product_id order by year
asc),0) as diff_sales
from (
Select product_id, year,(quantity*price) as curr_sales from
Sales )s )s1
Group by product_id
Having min(diff_sales)>0 )t1
Join products t2 on t1.products=t2.products
2. Write a SQL query to find the products which does not have sales at all?
Select distinct t1.product_name from
Products t1
Left Join
(Select product_id ,sum(total_sales)
from (select product_id ,(quantity*price) as total_sales from sales) tmp
group by product_id
having sum(total_sales)>0
) t2
On t1.product_id=t2.product_id and t2.product_id is null
3. Write a SQL query to find the products whose sales decreased in 2012 compared to 2011?
Select distinct t2.product_name from
Select product_id from (
Select product_id, curr_sales-lead(curr_sales) over(partition by product_id order year DESC) as diff
from (
Select product_id,year,(quantity*price) as curr_sales from sales where year in (‘2011’,’2012’) )t1
Where year=’2012’ )t where diff <0 )t1
Join
Products t2
On t1.product_id=t2.product_id
Or
Select distinct t3.products_name from
Sales t1
Join
sales t2
On t1.product_id=t2.product_id
And and T1.year=2012
and t2.year=2011
And t1.quantity<t2.quantity
Join
Products t3 on t1.product_id=t3.product_id
4. Write a query to select the top product sold in each year?
Select distinct p.product_name,s1.year, s1.quantity from
Sales s1
Join (
Select year,max(quantity) as max_quantity
From sales
Group by year ) s2
On s1.year=s2.year and s1.quantity=s2.quantity
Join
Products p
On s1.product_id=s2.product_id
Or
Select t2.product_name from (
Select distinct product_id from (
Select * , max(quantity) over(partition by year order by product_id) as max_quantity from
Sales )s1
Where quantity= max_quantity )t1
Join product t2
On t1.product_id=t2.product_id
Or
Select * from (
Select p.product_name, year, rank() over (partition by year order by quantity DESC) as rank1
From
Sales s
Join
Product P
On s.product_id=p.product_id
) where rank1=1
5. Write a query to find the total sales of each product.?
Select p.product_name, NVL(sum(quantity*price),0) s total_quantity from
Product p
Left Join
Sales s
On p.product_id=s.product_id
Group by product_name
1. Write a query to find the products whose quantity sold in a year should be greater than the
average quantity of the product sold across all the years?
Select distinct product_name from (
Select distinct products from (
Select * ,avg(quantity) over(partition by product_id order by quantity) as avg_quantity
From sales )t1
Where quantity> avg_quantity )t1
Join
Products t2
On t1.product_id=t2.product_id
1. Write a query to generate sequence numbers from 1 to the specified number N?
Declare @N int;
Set @N=10;
Cte (n)
(
Select 1
Union all
Select n+1 from cte
Where n<=N
)
Select * from cte;
3. Write a query to duplicate each row based on the value in the repeat column? The input table
data looks like as below
Products, Repeat
----------------
A, 3
B, 5
C, 2
Now in the output data, the product A should be repeated 3 times, B should be repeated 5 times
and C should be repeated 2 times. The output will look like as below
Products, Repeat
----------------
A, 3
A, 3
A, 3
B, 5
B, 5
B, 5
B, 5
B, 5
C, 2
C, 2

Consecutive Available Seats
Several friends at a cinema ticket office would like to reserve consecutive available seats.
Can you help to query all the consecutive available seats order by the seat_id using the following
cinema table?
seat_id free
1 1
2 0
3 1
4 1
5 1
Your query should return the following result for the sample case above.
seat_id
3
4
5
with temp as (
select seat_id,(seat_id-row_number() over(order by seat_id asc)) as diff
from (
(select seat_id from table
where free=1 )t1
),
select distinct seat_id from
temp t4
join
(select diff,count(distinct seat_id)
from t1
group by diff
having count(distinct seat_id)>1 )t3
on t4.diff=t3.diff
