You can use IF() for this. Let us first create a table. One of the columns here is having ENUM type
mysql> create table DemoTable ( UserId int, UserName varchar(40), UserGender ENUM('M','F') ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.11 sec)
Insert records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values(1,'John','M'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(2,'Maria','F'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.17 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(3,'David','M'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(4,'Emma','F'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+--------+----------+------------+ | UserId | UserName | UserGender | +--------+----------+------------+ | 1 | John | M | | 2 | Maria | F | | 3 | David | M | | 4 | Emma | F | +--------+----------+------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to select ENUM('M', 'F') as 'Male' or 'Female'−
mysql> SELECT UserId,UserName,IF(UserGender='F','Female', 'Male') AS `UserGender` from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output−
+--------+----------+------------+ | UserId | UserName | UserGender | +--------+----------+------------+ | 1 | John | Male | | 2 | Maria | Female | | 3 | David | Male | | 4 | Emma | Female | +--------+----------+------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
