How To Write This Complex Query

hi all
i have following tables
1. employees
2. departments
3. vaccination_type
4. vaccination_subtype
5. vaccination_given
a vaccination suppose 'FLU' is to be given to an employee or an department(all employees of this department)
EXAMPLE:
vaccination type is "FLU", vaccination subtypes are "FLU1" and "FLU2"
vaccination type is "CHIC", vaccination subtypes are "CHIC1" and "CHIC2"
employee # 4444 dept# 40 assigned "FLU"
dept 50 assigned "CHIC"
employee 4444 has given only one dose means "FLU1" >>> it means defaulters
employee 5555 of dept 50 have given all 2 doses >>>>>> it means 9 emps are defaulters (total emps are 10 in dept 50)
i need to write a query to identify those employees who are defaulters
means not a single vaccination given or 1 of 3, or 2 of 3 etc
query should return 9 employees of dept 50 and employee 4444
hope you understand my problem.
Regards,

How about this one :
select empno,a.vactype,count(vacstype) From vaccination_given a
group by empno,a.vactype
having count(vacstype) < (select count(*) from vaccination_subtype where vactype = a.vactype)
EMPNO     VACTYPE     COUNT(VACSTYPE)
5553     CHIC     1
5554     CHIC     1
5560     CHIC     1
5551     CHIC     1
5559     CHIC     1
5558     CHIC     1
4444     FLU     1
5552     CHIC     1
5556     CHIC     1
5557     CHIC     1

How to write this SQL query

We have a table, the structure as below: (I put a blank row in the middle to make it clear)
Product_ID     Retailer     Retail_Price
1001          A          1.2
1001          B          1.5
1001          C          1.4
1002          B          2.0
1002          C          2.1
1002          E          1.8
1002          F          2.0
1003          A          1.7
1003          C          1.5
Basically we use the table to compare the retail price for different retailers in terms of different products. My customer asked me to give a report based on above table but only shows the retail prices which contain retailer A.
For example, on above table I need to give a report like below:
Product_ID     Retailer     Retail_Price
1001          A          1.2
1001          B          1.5
1001          C          1.4
1003          A          1.7
1003          C          1.5
Can anybody give some ideas on how I should write a SQL to achieve this.
Many thanks!

How to write this sql query to oracle

Hi sir,
i am using one query in my sql stored procedure that is:
select @maxtime=CONVERT(Time,Out_Time+DATEADD(n,60,0)) from shift where Shift_Code = @ShiftCode
so here i am getting this value 01/01/1900 12:00 AM
the same i used in oracle my query is :
to_char(Out_Time,'1900-01-01' + 0/(24*60),'DD/MM/YYYY HH:MI AM')
INTO v_maxtime
FROM shift
WHERE Shift_Code = v_ShiftCode;
but getting error that is: Encountered the symbol INTO when expecting one of the following :=(%;
am i doing any thing wrong.
thanks

The error you're getting is a syntax error. In this case because you've mangled the TO_CHAR syntax. Alas I cannot give you the correct version because I cannot unpick what you're trying to do with that statement.
It would be easier if you expalined what business logic you're trying to implement instead of asking us to interpret a piece of shonky SQL.It's yet another of the OP's questions about how to do DATEs in Oracle (so many threads it can get very confusing - even though the OP has been asked to stick to one thread!).
The code looks like it's based on the answer I gave here:
How to get exact query of sql in oracle?
but clearly he doesn't understand the basic syntax of Oracle or the datatypes he's using. Sometimes you just have to give up... (I know I have)

How to write this query to filter combination of few values

Hi,
I have a table CHIMM which is a transaction table and contains information of the vaccines given to a child.
columns are: child_id, vacc_id, vacc_given_dt. I have to query for remaining vaccines.
HEXA is a vaccine_id which is composite vaccine of DPT1,POL1,HBV1 & HIB1 (vaccine ids).
I want to write to query if any of DPT1,POL1,HBV1 & HIB1 given then HEXA should not be displayed in the result.
OR
if HEXA is given then of course any of DPT1,POL1,HBV1 & HIB1 should not be displayed in the result.
How to write this query?

Hi,
I'm still not sure what the output you want from that sample data is. Do you just want the child_ids, like this
CHILD_ID
       3
       4? If so, here's one way to get them:
WITH     all_vacc_ids     AS
     SELECT     c.child_id
     ,     c.vacc_id          AS child_vacc_id
     ,     v.vacc_id
     ,     COUNT ( CASE
                         WHEN c.vacc_id = 'HEXA'
                   THEN 1
                     END
                )       OVER ( PARTITION BY c.child_id
                                   )    AS hexa_itself
     FROM          vacc   v
     LEFT OUTER JOIN     chimm c     PARTITION BY (c.child_id)
                      ON     c.vacc_id     = v.vacc_id
     WHERE   v.vacc_desc       = 'HEXA'     -- See note below
SELECT       child_id
FROM       all_vacc_ids
WHERE       child_vacc_id     IS NULL
AND       vacc_id     != 'HEXA'
AND       hexa_itself     = 0
GROUP BY child_id
rha2 wrote:there are alot of vaccines, i just put 3 for example. this query gives error: invalid relational operatorAre you saying that the vacc table contains other rows, but those other rows are not needed for this problem? It would be good if you included an example in the sample data. The query above considers only the rows in vacc where vacc_desc='HEXA'. You can have other rows in the vacc table, but they won't affect the output of this query. The query above makes no assumptions about the number of rows that have vacc_desc='HEXA'; it will report all child_ids who are missing any of them, regardless of the number (assuming the child does not have the 'HEXA' vacc_id itself, like child_id=1).
You still haven't said which version of Oracle you're using. The query above will work in Oracle 10 (and higher).

How to write this query ?

how to write this query ?
list the emp name who is working for the highest avg sal department.
I can use row_number over to get correct result. If we don't use this row_number function, just plain sql, how to do it ?
the row_number version is like this
select emp.* from emp ,
select deptno, row_number() over (order by avg(sal) desc) r from emp
group by deptno
)e
where e.r = 1
and emp.deptno = e.deptno

ROW_NUMBER (or its close relative, RANK) is the simplest and most efficient way to solve this problem. Why not do this the right way?
the row_number version is like this
select emp.* from emp ,
select deptno, row_number() over (order by avg(sal) desc) r from emp
group by deptno
)e
where e.r = 1
and emp.deptno = e.deptno
If there happens to be a tie (that is, two or more departments have the same average sal, and it is the highest), then the query above will only arbitrarily treat one of them (no telling which one) as the highest. Change ROW_NUMBER to RANK to get all departments with a claim to having the highest average sal.
You could use the ROWNUM pseudo-column instead of ROW_NUMBER, if all you want to do is avoid ROW_NUMBER.
Without using ROW_NUMBER or RANK, there are lots of ways involving other analytic functions, such as AVG and MAX.
If you really, really don't want to use analytic functions at all, you can do this:
SELECT     *
FROM     scott.emp
WHERE     deptno     IN (
                  SELECT       deptno
                  FROM       scott.emp
                  GROUP BY deptno
                  HAVING       AVG (sal) = (
                                                   SELECT    MAX (AVG (sal))
                                           FROM          scott.emp
                                           GROUP BY deptno
;

How can I make this complex query?

I donât know how can I do this complex query...
I have the tables Customers, Vehicles and Models. A customer can have 0-N Vehicles and a vehicle have 1 Model.
Customers: ID_Customer (PK), Name, LastName...
Vehicles: ID_Vehicle (PK), ID_Customer, ID_Model, date_sale
Models: ID_Modelo (PK), Model_Name
Then I need to know the buy average time (date_sale) between 2 models (ID_Model)
For example I have these Vehicles:
ID_Vehicle (PK)...ID_Customer...ID_Model....date_sale
1................................123....................1.............21/05/2000
2................................459....................3............ 16/08/2000
3................................123....................2............ 28/06/2001
4................................516....................1............ 09/09/2001
5................................459....................4............ 18/10/2002
6................................516....................2............ 20/12/2002
If I want to know the buy average time (date_sale) between ID_Model 1 and ID_Model 2 it is. (403 + 467) / 2 = 435 days !!!
* Customer 123 (model 1 to 2): 25/06/2001 â 21/05/2000 ==> 403 days
* Customer 516 (model 1 to 2): 01/12/2002 â 01/05/2000 ==> 467 days.
I need to do the query for all the combination models. For example If I have the Models 1, 2 and 3 I need to obtain:
Source_Model.....Target_Model....Buy_Average_Time
1......................................1....................... xxx days
1......................................2....................... xxx days
1......................................3....................... xxx days
2......................................1....................... xxx days
2......................................2....................... xxx days
2......................................3....................... xxx days
3......................................1....................... xxx days
3......................................2....................... xxx days
3......................................3....................... xxx days
If it is necessary I could create a table with the fields Source_Model, Target_Model and Buy_Average_Time for accelerate the query time response.
But how can I do this query??????????
Thanks very much!!!

Hi,
Thanks for your reply but It is not correct for me because the Customer could have several vehicles in her life.
If I make the query with my examples data it is OK
ID_Vehicle (PK)...ID_Customer...ID_Model....date_sale
1................................123....................1.............21/05/2000
2................................459....................3............ 16/08/2000
3................................123....................2............ 28/06/2001
4................................516....................1............ 09/09/2001
5................................459....................4............ 18/10/2002
6................................516....................2............ 20/12/2002
select v1.id_model as source_model,
v2.id_model as target_model,
avg (v2.date_sale - v1.date_sale) || ' days' as buy_average_time
from vehicles v1,
vehicles v2
where v1.id_customer = v2.id_customer
and v2.date_sale > v1.date_sale
group by v1.id_model, v2.id_model;
I received:
SOURCE_MODEL     TARGET_MODEL     BUY_AVERAGE_TIME
..............1................................2.....................................435 days
..............3................................4.....................................793 days
But If I insert a new vehicle:
ID_Vehicle (PK)...ID_Customer...ID_Model....date_sale
7................................516....................3............ 16/08/2003
And I execute the query now I receive:
SOURCE_MODEL     TARGET_MODEL     BUY_AVERAGE_TIME
..............1................................2...........................435 days
..............1................................3...........................706 days
..............2................................3...........................239 days
..............3................................4...........................793 days
It is NO correct because I donât have the 1 (Source_model) to 3 (Target_model) combination in the Vehicles data!!! (I have 1 to 2 and 2 to 3 but NO 1 to 3!!!!).
Then the query is not OK for me!
Besides If I modify the Vehicle 7 data and put ID_Model = 2:
ID_Vehicle (PK)...ID_Customer...ID_Model....date_sale
7................................516....................2............ 16/08/2003
I received:
SOURCE_MODEL     TARGET_MODEL     BUY_AVERAGE_TIME
..............1................................2...........................525,33 days
..............2................................2...........................239 days
..............3................................4...........................793 days
It is NO correct because the BUY_AVERAGE_TIME for 1 to 2 combination is 435 days (the same of the original query) because I aggregate only the combination 2 to 2 with the ID_VEHICLE 7
Below I attach the examples scripts.
Could you help me with this query, please?
Thanks very much!

Hi,
One thing I understood my your issue is you want to perform, execution of query once or fetch the results sets my minimizing the number of times executions of queries. It would be hard for us to check in this way, atleast provide some temporary data and some business rules. Only I can IN, >, < (queries logical conditons on inner query)

Hi, I've checked how to use kannada keyboard in Yosemite. But, there are some 'vattu forms' and other grammar in Kannada language that I don't know how to use it. For eg, Preetiya taatanige nimma muddu mommagalu maduva namaskara? How to write this?

Hi, I've checked how to use Kannada keyboard in Yosemite. But, there are some 'vattu forms' and other grammar in Kannada language that I don't know how to use it. I know how to change between the keyboards and can also view keyboard. However, For eg, 'Preetiya taatanige nimma muddu mommagalu maduva namaskara' How to write this? If anybody can answer this, very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

In general, you need to use the "f" (kannada qwerty keyboard) or "d" key (kannada) between letters to make special forms. Also you may need to adjust the typography settings of the font, which is done by doing Format > Font > Show Fonts > Gear Wheel > Typography as shown below. If you can provide screenshots or more detailed info on things you cannot make, I can perhaps help.
It is important to note that MS Word for Mac does not support Indic scripts -- any other app should work OK.

How to write a sql query to retrieve data entered in the past 2 weeks

Hi,
I have file names and last accessed date(java.sql.Date format) stored in my database table, I would like to know how I can write a query to get the name of files accessed in the past 2 weeks,I use open sql server at the back end.
Thanks in advance.

This has essentially nothing to do with JDBC. JDBC is just an API to execute the SQL language using Java and thus interact with the databases.
Your problem is related to the SQL language, you don't know how to write the SQL language. I suggest you to go through a SQL tutorial (there is one at w3schools.com) and to read the SQL documentation which come along with the database in question. A decent database manfacturer has a website and probably also a discussion forum / mailinglist as well.
I'll give you a hint: you can just use equality operators in SQL like everywhere. For example: "WHERE date < somedate".

How to write this assignment in oom way(long)

i try to write a new class, but i am not very sure if there is only one new class, I shall write a Movie class or a Ticket class?
this is my Movie class, if I also want to write a new Ticket class. and still i don't know how to write
because the Ticket class uses some of the attributes of the Movie class such as start time, Movie.name, as in this situation the relation
between Ticket and Movie is still aggregation, or become a generalization?
and how to represent that a Movie can have many Tickets? I shall write a buy-ticket method inside the Ticket class or Movie class.
(are there any thing not right with this movie class? thanks)
============================
class Movie
     String name;
     String startTime;
     String [] coupleChair=new String[11];//start from 1 to 10
     String [] singleChair=new String[11];//start from 1 to 10
     public Movie(String str1st)
          this.name=str1st;
     public Movie(String str1st, String str2nd)
          this.name=str1st;
          this.startTime=str2nd;
     public String buyA_Single_Ticket()
          int i=1;
          do
               if(this.singleChair!="sold")
                    this.singleChair[i]="sold";
                    return "You seat is Single Seat No."+i+"\n Enjoy the movie :)";
               else i++;
          while(i<=10);//when i==11 jump out
          return "Sorry, all Single seats have been sold Out";
     public String buyA_Couple_Ticket()
          int i=1;
          do
               if(this.coupleChair[i]!="sold")
                    this.coupleChair[i]="sold";
                    return "You seat is Couple Seat No."+i+"\n Enjoy the time ;)";
               else i++;
          while(i<=10);//when i==11 jump out
          return "Sorry, all Couple seats have been sold Out";
}//end class
============================
this is the question
A small ABC cinema has just purchased a computer for its new automated reservations system. You have been asked to program the new system. You are to write a Java application to assign seats on each movie show on the day (capacity: 20 seats for 1 movie).
Your program should display the following alternatives: ��Please type 1 for couple seat section�� and ��Please type 2 for normal seat section��. If the user types 1, your program should assign one seat in the couple seat section (seats 1 �C 10). If the person types 2, your program should assign a seat in the normal seat (seats 11 �C 20). Your program should also prompt for the movie time and movie name.
Your program should then display:
I.     The person��s seat number
II.     Whether it is a couple seat or normal seat of the cinema
III.     Time, date, movie name
Your program should never assign a seat that has already been assigned. When the normal seat section is full, your program should ask the person if it is acceptable to be placed in the couple seat section (and vice versa). If yes, make the appropriate seat assignment. If no, print the message ��Next show is in 3 hours time.��
(it is just a small test on my OOM learning, I know it is not necessary to make it so complex.)

Break down your problem into discrete chunks. The more you practice this, the more your initial thoughts will resemble the eventual objects that you will create.
Let's take address a few of your issues:
What has the start time? Is it the ticket or the movie? (Hint: Would someone ever print you out a ticket with a different start time than the movie's?)
If ticket and movie share some attributes, then you can either use inheritance or composition/delegation. In this instance, what makes more sense to you? Is a ticket a movie or vice versa? Or is a ticket simply related to a movie?
If a given object can contain several instances of another object, you will want to use either an array or a collection, probably List in this instance.
Why is there no Theater object? A movie may play at multiple theaters. Each theater has a capacity (in terms of total seats and number already booked). This does not really have anything to do with the movie. It is the Theater that you are booking. It may also have which movies are showing at which time.
Your notion of 'couple' booking seems strange. Why not have a concept like 'consecutive seats required'? That way, your design is more flexible and you can still accomodate couples.That should get you started. Best of luck.

How to write EJB-QL query with IN notation and list values EJB3.0?

hi,
I would like to write an EJB-QL query where the query would return the objects whose name equals to one of the names in the list.
SELECT DISTINCT OBJECT(feature) FROM MAPSHEET_LOCK feature WHERE feature.name IN ?1
For ?1 I would like to pass in a list. How can I write this query?
Thanks

List<String> names;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("SELECT DISTINCT OBJECT(feature) FROM MAPSHEET_LOCK feature WHERE feature.name IN (");
String separator = "";
for (String name : names) {
sb.append(separator);
   sb.append("'");
   sb.append(name);
   sb.append("'");
   separator = ", ";
sb.append(")");
String ejbql = sb.toString();
// Code for execute query
