Ex no: 05 SUBQUERIES AND CORRELATED


SUBQUERIES
Date 10-09-2024

AIM:

To execute given query using the concept of subqueries and correlated subqueries.

DESCRIPTION:

Subquery is usually added in the WHERE Clause of the sql statement. Most of
the time, a subquery is used when you know how to search for a value using a SELECT
statement, but do not know the exact value. Subqueries are an alternate way of
returning data from multiple tables.
Subqueries can be used with the following sql statements along with the comparison
operators like =, <, >, <=, >=, etc.
• Update
• Insert
• Select
• Delete

Correlated sub-query
A correlated sub-query is a term used for specific types of queries in SQL in computer
databases. It is a sub-query (a query nested inside another query) that uses values from
the outer query in its WHERE clause. The sub-query is evaluated once for each row
processed by the outer query.

Detailed Procedure:
Here is an example for a typical correlated sub-query. In this example we are finding the
list of employees (employee number and names) having more salary than the average
salary of all employees in that employee&#39;s department.
SELECT employee_number, name FROM employee AS e1
WHERE salary > (SELECT avg(salary)FROM employee
WHERE department = e1.department);

In the above query the outer query is,

SELECT employee_number, name FROM employee AS e1


WHERE salary >
And the inner query is,
(SELECT avg(salary)
FROM employee
WHERE department = e1.department);
In the above nested query the inner query has to be executed for every

employee as the department will change for every row. Hence the average salary will
also change. The effect of correlated sub-queries can also be obtained using outer
Joins.

QUERIES AND OUTPUT SCREENSHOT:

4. List the users who have made reservations with a total cost exceeding a certain amount (e.g.,
50).
