Lec9 Lab CSC371 Database Systems

This document discusses SQL grouping, aggregation, and views. It covers using the GROUP BY clause to group query results by one or more columns and aggregate functions like COUNT() and AVG(). The HAVING clause allows filtering grouped results. Views are introduced as virtual tables defined by a SQL SELECT statement that can be used like real tables. Examples demonstrate creating, selecting from, and dropping views.

GROUP BY Syntax
 Groups rows that have the same values into summary rows
 Find the number of staff members in each branch
 It is often used with aggregate functions to group the result-set by one
or more columns.
 Used COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM, AVG functions.

 SELECT column_name(s)
FROM table_name
WHERE condition
GROUP BY column_name(s)
ORDER BY column_name(s);

5
 Show branch wise data from staff table?
 Select * from staff group by branchno
 Select * from staff order by branchno

6
Use of Group by with Count function
 Count how many employees in each branch?

 SELECT branchno, COUNT(staffno) AS [Staff in each Branch]


FROM staff
GROUP BY branchno;

7
Group By with ORDER BY Clause

 SELECT branchno, COUNT(staffno) AS [Staff in each Branch]


FROM staff
GROUP BY branchno
ORDER BY COUNT(staffno) ASC;

 SELECT branchno, COUNT(staffno) AS [Staff in each Branch]


FROM staff
GROUP BY branchno
ORDER BY branchno DESC;
8
 Can you find out the average salary of Assistants in each branch?

 SELECT branchno, Avg(salary) AS [Average salary of Assistants in each Branch]


FROM staff
Where position = 'assistant'
GROUP BY branchno
ORDER BY branchno DESC;
9
Can you generate a report for branches where
more than two employees are working?

 select branchNo, count(staffno) As [Total Employee]


From staff
where count(staffno) > 2
Group by branchno

10
The SQL HAVING Clause
 The HAVING clause was added to SQL because the WHERE
keyword could not be used with aggregate functions.
 Applied condition on group data

SELECT column_name(s)
FROM table_name
WHERE condition
GROUP BY column_name(s)
HAVING condition
ORDER BY column_name(s);

11
Can we find out the branch number with more than two
employees

 select branchNo, count(staffno) As [Total Employee]


From staff
Group by branchno;

Having count(staffno) > 2

12
 select branchNo, count(staffno) As [Total Employee], Avg(salary) AS [Average
Salary]
From staff
Where salary >= 9000
Group by branchno
Having count(staffno) > 1
Order By count(staffno) DESC;

13
select branchNo, count(staffno) As [Total Employee], Avg(salary) AS [Average
Salary]
From staff
Where salary > 10000
Group by branchno
Having count(staffno) > 1;

Is the Result correct?


If yes How?
If Not Why?

14
SQL CREATE VIEW Statement

 Virtual table based on the result-set of an SQL statement.


 The fields in a view are fields from one or more base/real tables in the
database.
 Can add SQL functions, WHERE, JOIN statements and sub-query.
 Fetch data from many tables to a view and present the data as if the data
were coming from one single table.
 Security Purpose
 Reporting Services

15
SQL CREATE VIEW
 CREATE VIEW view_name AS
SELECT column1, column2, ...
FROM table_name
WHERE condition;

 CREATE VIEW [Branch_B003] AS
SELECT staffno, fname, salary
FROM staff
WHERE branchno = ‘B003’’;

 select * from branch_B003

16
SQL CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW 

 CREATE OR ALTER VIEW [Branch_B003] AS


SELECT staffno, fname, lname,salary
FROM staff
WHERE branchno = ‘B003’’;

 select * from branch_B003

17
Drop View

 DROP VIEW [branch_b003];

18
