Last & First SQL aggregate functions
I'm trying to migrate an app. from Access to SQL Server, and find that Transact-SQL does not support LAST/FIRST functions. Is there any alternative to these?
Below is the Access SQL statement:
SELECT Last(tblZoneNameString.Val) AS strZoneName, tblZoneNameString.TagIndex
FROM tblZoneNameString
GROUP BY tblZoneNameString.TagIndex
HAVING (((tblZoneNameString.TagIndex)>0));
In SQL Server 2005, you can do something like this:
select
tblZoneNameString.Val as strZoneName,
tblZoneNameString.TagIndex
from (
select
tblZoneNameString.Val as strZoneName,
tblZoneNameString.TagIndex,
rank() over (partition by tblZoneNameString.TagIndex order by ??????) as rk
from tblZoneNameString
) as T
where rk = 1
Where I've written ?????? you will need to put whatever column
or columns answer the question "last in order of what?". Perhaps
this is something like someDateTime DESC.

I am trying to create a query that will output a single row for each employee. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to group by the aggregate function itself. Is there a way to do this in SQL Developer? Here is my code at this point:
COL ename FORMAT A25 HEADING Employee|Name
COL salary FORMAT $999,999.99 HEADING Salary
COL comm FORMAT A10 HEADING Commission|Rate
COL earn FORMAT $999,999,999.99 HEADING Sept/2010|Earnings
SELECT DISTINCT e.last_name||', '||e.first_name "ename",salary,
CASE WHEN commission_pct > 0 THEN
commission_pct
ELSE 0
END AS comm,
CASE WHEN commission_pct > 0
AND o.total > 0 THEN
(SUM(o.total)*(commission_pct*.01)+salary)
ELSE salary
END AS earn

RIGHT OUTER JOIN s_emp e

SQL Aggregate function and Subquery issues
Hello,
I'm trying to create an SQL statement that gives the rate of all Urgent surgeries Grouped by sector (i.e Surgery, Radiology), and Fiscal year
To do this I need to divide the sum of surgeries with a state "Urgent" by the total surgeries
In order to pull all the Total surgeries I would need to exclude the surgeries with the state "Cancelled", AND make sure to get rid of duplicates a single surgery may have.
So this is what I came up with, but I'm not able to apply the following formula in SQL for the rate of Urgent surgeries:
TOTAL OF URGENT SURGERIES / TOTAL SURGERIES
Note that the Select statement within the WITH CLAUSE runs successfully when running it separately
With T1 As(
SELECT
b."etat",
c."secteur",
d.annee_fiscale_full,
d.periode,
SUM(Count(distinct b."Cle_requete")) OVER (PARTITION BY b."etat", c."secteur", d.annee_fiscale_full, d.periode) AS TOTAL_SURGERIES
FROM vsRequete a,
vsEtats b,
vsOperation c,
periode_financiere d,
vstemps_operatoires e
WHERE b."etat" <> 'Cancelled'
AND (b."Cle_requete" = a."Cle_vsRequete")
AND (c."Cle_requete" = a."Cle_vsRequete")
AND (b."Cle_requete" = c."Cle_requete")

Whenever you have a problem, please post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) from all tables involved.
Also post the results you want from that data, and an explanation of how you get those results from that data, with specific examples.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002}

It sounds like your problem is similar to this one:

Here's one way you might answer that:WITH got_cnts AS

THEN ename
END
) AS clerk_cnt
, COUNT (DISTINCT ename) AS total_cnt
FROM scott.emp
WHERE job != 'SALESMAN'
GROUP BY deptno
SELECT deptno
, clerk_cnt
, total_cnt
, 100 * clerk_cnt
/ total_cnt AS clerk_pct
FROM got_cnts
ORDER BY deptno
Output:DEPTNO CLERK_CNT TOTAL_CNT CLERK_PCT

Any difference between distinct and aggregate function in sql query cost???
Hi,
I have executed many sql stmts patterns- such as:
a) using a single table
b) using two tables, using simple joins or outer joins
but i have not noticed any difference in sql stmts in cost and in execution plan....
Anyway, my colleague insists on that using aggregate function is less costly compared to
distinct....(something i have not confirmed, that's why i beleive that they are exactly the same...)
For the above reffered 1st sql pattern.. we could for example use
select distinct deptno
from emp
select count(*), deptno
from emp
group by deptno select distinct owner, object_type from all_objects
select count(*), owner, object_type from all_objects
group by owner, object_typeHave you found any difference between the two ever...????
Note: I use Ora DB 10g v2.
Thank you,
Simdistinct and aggregate function are for different uses and may give same result but if u r using aggregate function to get distinct records, it will be expensive...
ex
select distinct deptno from scott.dept;

PL/SQL : User defined Aggregate Functions ??
Is it possible to create (using whatever language) a user defined aggregate function for transparent usage within sql ?
e.g.
select median(myField) from myTable
or
select empirical_expectation(myField) from myTable
thanx in advance ..
Tobias ObersteinHI,
U can create a stored proc. (PL/SQL) for this and call as any other function.
By using external procedure, U can create shared library in C or C++ and coonect this shared library by using external function/procedure. This will be become user-defined procedure.

How to write SQL query and apply aggregate functions on it
Hello experts,
Iu2019ve a task to write SQL query on tree tables and do inner join on them. Iu2019ve accomplish this task by using T-CODE SQVI. However now I need to write a query and apply SQL functions on it i.e. Add, Count, Max and Min etc. Please can someone tell me how I can write SQL query with aggregate functions in SAP?
Thanks a lot in advanceHI Mr. Cool
you can see the below code for using aggregate functions.
where ARTIST and SEATSOCCU are the field names for which you want to perform these functions.
DATA: TOTAL_ENTRIES TYPE I,
TOTAL_ATT TYPE I,
MAX_ATT TYPE I,
AVG_ATT TYPE I.
SELECT COUNT( DISTINCT ARTIST )
SUM( SEATSOCCU )
MAX( SEATSOCCU )
AVG( SEATSOCCU ) FROM YCONCERT INTO (TOTAL_ENTRIES, TOTAL_ATT,
MAX_ATT, AVG_ATT).
Thanks

Aggregate Function in SQL subquery
Hello,
I am trying to use the following syntax and it is saying I can't use an aggregate function in a subquery. I can't use a GROUP BY in this case because if another field in the project table (such as status) is different, that project will show up twice.
So in this case I am using this syntax to show the most recent quote within the project.
SELECT PROJECT.*, QUOTE.QuoteDate, QUOTE.QuoteCode
FROM PROJECT LEFT JOIN QUOTE ON PROJECT.ProjectID = QUOTE.ProjectID
WHERE QUOTE.QuoteDate=(SELECT Max(Q.QuoteDate) FROM QUOTE Q WHERE Q.ProjectID = PROJECT.ProjectID);
My goal here is to show the most recent quote within each project (there can be multiple revisions of a quote within each project). I want to show other fields such as the status of the quote, but if the status is different between quotes, the GROUP BY on that
field will cause it to be listed more than once. All I want to show is the most recent quote for each project.
Let me know if this isn't clear.
Thanks.Try the below querySELECT P1.projectID,p1.QuoteDate, Q1.QuoteCode,p1.*
FROM PROJECT P1 inner join (SELECT Q.ProjectID,Max(Q.QuoteDate) QD FROM QUOTE Q group by Q.ProjectID) Q1 on Q1.ProjectID = P1.ProjectID and Q1.QD=P1.QuoteDate-Prashanth -
Trying to create a Histogram type/object for aggregate functions
Hi,
I am trying to create an aggregate function that will return a histogram
type.
It doesn't have to be an object that is returned, I don't mind returning
a string but I would like to keep the associative array (or something
else indexed by varchar2) as a static variable between iterations.
I started out with the SecondMax example in
http://www.csis.gvsu.edu/GeneralInfo/Oracle/appdev.920/a96595/dci11agg.htm#1004821
But even seems that even a simpler aggregate function like one strCat
below (which works) has problems because I get multiple permutations for
every combination. The natural way to solve this would be to create an
associative array as a static variable as part of the Histogram (see
code below). However, apparently Oracle refuses to accept associate
arrays in this context (PLS-00355 use of pl/sql table not allowed in
this context).
If there is no easy way to do the histogram quickly can we at least get
something like strCat to work in a specific order with a "partition by
... order by clause"? It seems that even with "PARALLEL_ENABLE"
commented out strCat still calls merge for function calls like:
select hr,qtr, count(tzrwy) rwys,
noam.strCat(cnt) rwycnt,
noam.strCat(tzrwy) config,
sum(cnt) cnt, min(minscore) minscore, max(maxscore) maxscore from
ordrwys group by hr,qtr
Not only does this create duplicate entries in the query result like
"A,B,C" and "A,C,B" it seems that the order in rwycnt and config are not
always the same so a user can not match the results based on their
order.
The difference between my functions and functions like sum and the
secondMax demonstrated in the documentation is that secondMax does not
care about the order in which it gets its arguments and does not need to
maintain an ordered set in order to return the correct results. A good
example of a built in oracle function that does care about all its
arguments and probably has to maintain a similar data structure to the
one I want is the PERCTILE_DISC function. If you can find the code for
that function (or something like it) and forward a reference to me that
in itself would be very helpful.
Thanks,
K.Dingle

Defining STDEV as an aggregate function
Is there a way to force BO XI R2 to recognize SQL function STDEV as an aggregate function?
I found a reference for version 6.5 in the following link but I can't implement the suggested solution:
http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?p=701261&sid=8e2cfd855db2069cb84d9e021a5ba4a5
Thanks,
Paulo GottlibRank syntax is
rank( expression1, ... expression_n ) WITHIN GROUP ( ORDER BY expression1, ... expression_n )for example we are going to find employee salary and comm
select rank(1000, 500) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY sal, comm) from emp;The SQL statement above would return the rank of an employee with a salary of $1,000 and a commision of $500 from within the emp table.
Now we are going to find from your table like this
first of all run this query
select * from employee order by salary, JOB_IDyour result will be like this
RowNum ID JOB_ID SALARY
1 100 667 800
2 200 670 1250
3 300 670 1250
4 400 670 1600
5 500 671 2200
6 600 671 2750
7 700 671 2850----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
select rank(2650,671) within group (order by salary, JOB_ID) from employeeit will be return value 6 because salary 2650 near to row 6 (Salary = 2750)
similarly
select rank(1900,670) within group (order by salary, JOB_ID) from employeeit will be return value 5 because salary 1900 near to row 6 (Salary = 2200)
select rank(800, 671) within group (order by salary, JOB_ID) from employee
this query return value 2 (reason is that)
salary = 800 exist on row number 1
and Job_ID = 671 exist on row_num 5 to 7due to salary and job_id both don't match so query will return those value where salary has min difference
Now check
select rank(1250, 671) within group (order by salary, JOB_ID) from employeesimilarly it will be return value 4
.... Thanks & Regards ....

Custom aggregate function inside a package.
Hi there,
I'm trying to write a custom aggregate function and group that function inside a package together with some other functions that I have. As an example (to simulate the problem I have) suppose my custom aggregation to do a summation of numbers looks like:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE AS OBJECT (
summation NUMBER,
STATIC FUNCTION ODCIAggregateInitialize(agg_context IN OUT
SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE) RETURN NUMBER,
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateIterate(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
next_number IN NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER,
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateMerge(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
para_context IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE) RETURN NUMBER,
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateTerminate(self IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
return_value OUT NUMBER, flags IN NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE BODY SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE IS
STATIC FUNCTION ODCIAggregateInitialize(agg_context IN OUT
SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
agg_context := SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE(NULL);
RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END;
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateIterate(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
next_number IN NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
IF self.summation IS NULL THEN
self.summation := next_number;
ELSIF summation IS NOT NULL THEN
self.summation := self.summation + next_number;
END IF;
RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END;
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateMerge(self IN OUT SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
para_context IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
self.summation := self.summation + para_context.summation;
RETURN ODCIConst.Success;
END;
MEMBER FUNCTION ODCIAggregateTerminate(self IN SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE,
return_value OUT NUMBER, flags IN NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
return_value := self.summation;
return ODCIConst.Success;
END;
END;
If I write the following function definition:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION MY_SUM(input NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER PARALLEL_ENABLE AGGREGATE USING SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE;
and corresponding type declaration to test:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE VECTOR
IS
TABLE OF NUMBER;
this statement:
select my_sum(column_value) from table(vector(1, 2, 1, 45, 22, -1));
gives the correct result of 70. However, creating a package with the function definition:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE MY_FUNCTIONS AS
FUNCTION MY_SUM(input NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER PARALLEL_ENABLE AGGREGATE USING SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE;
END;
and calling it via:
select MY_FUNCTIONS.my_sum(column_value) from table(vector(1, 2, 1, 45, 22, -1));
explodes with:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [17090], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], [], []
Is it possible to have custom aggregate functions nested inside package declarations?
I'm using Oracle 11g, Release 2 (11.2.0.1.0).HiddenName wrote:
Is it possible to have custom aggregate functions nested inside package declarations?Yes, it is possible, you have succesfuly created your function. Your problem is that the database throws ORA-600 on execute. And with ORA-600 you can do 2 things: 1) google ORA-600 17090 or 2) contact your Oracle Support.
You could also try to declare the function without PARALLEL_ENABLE - just to try to see if it changes anything. You can also try to call your function against a regular table with rows and columns - not against an collection type with table() operator.
Anyway - these 2 tests should be usefull for Oracle Support.
I never tried to put a custom aggregate function into a package. First - the cases when you need a custom aggregate function to be written for your system are very rare. Second - even if I needed 1 then I never needed 2 or more custom aggregate functions on my system. And as I do not like to make my life more complex than necessary, I have created it as a stand-alone function. And it is works (slowly).I tried using a standard table as you suggested:
CREATE TABLE TEST_DATA
test_value NUMBER
INSERT INTO TEST_DATA
(SELECT column_value test_value from TABLE(vector(1, 2, 1, 45, 22, -1)));
COMMIT;
select my_sum(test_value) from test_data;
select my_functions.my_sum(test_value) from test_data;
I also tried removing the PARALLEL_ENABLE clause to create the package as follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE MY_FUNCTIONS AS
FUNCTION MY_SUM(input NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER AGGREGATE USING SUM_AGGREGATOR_TYPE;
END;
And unfortunately it still breaks with the following error: SQL Error: ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [17090]. This looks like an Oracle bug to me as the PL/SQL parsing engine should have disallowed me to even create this if it is not supported in Oracle. Instead, it allows me to create the package, and breaks when I call the function with this weird error (additionally cutting my connection from the database) instead of disallowing me to do this altogether and printing a nice error message telling me that Oracle doesn't support this. How would I go about logging a ticket for this?

Problem with aggregate function
Hello,
the prerequisite is to have a table with the following columns (#id, a_date).
Now the task is to select the maximum date from a range of rows of this table
select max(t.a_date)
from the_table t
where <condition to get only some rows of the_table>
and to get the id of the record which holds the maximum date. That's where the problem is located. It should look like the following code (yes, I know this cannot work because grouping by the id makes the aggregate senseless) just to make clear what I want to do.
select max(t.a_date), t.id
from the_table t
where <condition to get only some rows of the_table>
group by t.id
Does anybody have any idea how to solve the problem?
With regards,
Cosima

as the condition in the where-clause is very complex, I decided to use the solution with the FIRST function. After googling and reading a bit, I have just two more questions for my deeper understanding:
1) am I right that both snippets below do exactly the same?
SELECT MAX (t.a_date)
, MAX (t.ID)KEEP (DENSE_RANK FIRST ORDER BY t.a_date DESC)
FROM the_table t
WHERE <condition to get only some rows of the_table>
SELECT MAX (t.a_date)
, MAX (t.ID)KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY t.a_date ASC)
FROM the_table t
WHERE <condition to get only some rows of the_table>2) can I use als the min function for t.ID as there the aggregate function does not have any effect (but is necessary in order to use KEEP and FIRST or KEEP and LAST)?
With regards,

Select into aggregate function
Hi,
I have the following PL/SQL block that I am testing. The block reads a list of values from a local file and inserts the values into a select statement that uses an aggregate function. Here is my code:
DECLARE
f utl_file.file_type;
n COLa%TYPE; --holds values from the file
v COLb%TYPE; --holds value returned by select statement
BEGIN
f := utl_file.fopen(dir,file.txt,'R');
loop -- loop through file
utl_file.get_line(f,n);
if length(n) <> 0 then
SELECT max(A0.COLa) into v
FROM (SELECT AOB.COLa, A0.COLb
FROM TAB1 A0,TAB2 A0B
WHERE (A0.PK=A0B.PK) and A0B.COLa = n) A0;
IF SQL%rowcount = 0 THEN
dbms_output.put_line('no rows);
else
dbms_output.put_line(v);
end if;
end if;
end loop;
utl_file.fclose(f);
end;
Here is the error I get:
declare
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 98
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 656
ORA-06512: at line 12
I checked the database for the first couple of values in the list and got rows. I also ran a simple PL/sql code to print values in the file successfully. So I dont know why it is returning no data found. From what I understand select into statement using aggregate functions will never raise this exception, so why I am getting this error?
Thanks.Hi,
Actually, the SELECT ... INTO isn't the problem here.
Look at the error message:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 98
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 656
ORA-06512: at line 12The error is ocurring inside utl_file, which is being called at line 12 of your code. (That must be
utl_file.get_line(f,n);)
Utl_file.get_line raises NO_DATA_FOUND when it reaches the end of the file. (If it didn't you'd have an infinite loop, since your code doesn't have any exit strategy.)
You can put the call to get_line in its won BEGIN-EXCEPTION-END block, and trap the NO_DATA_FOUND error.
For example:
end_of_file := 0;
WHILE end_of_file = 0;
loop -- loop through file
BEGIN
utl_file.get_line(f,n);
if length(n) != 0 then -- Use !=, because you can't post <> on this site
SELECT max(A0B.COLa) -- No sub-query needed
into v
FROM TAB1 A0
, TAB2 A0B
WHERE (A0.PK = A0B.PK)
and A0B.COLa = n;
IF SQL%rowcount = 0 THEN -- Not needed: SELECT MAX ... without GROUP BY always returns 1 row
dbms_output.put_line('no rows);
else
dbms_output.put_line(v);
end if;
end if;
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
THEN
end_of_file = 1;
END;
end loop;Edited by: Frank Kulash on Jul 17, 2009 2:51 PM -
The COLLECT aggregate function
Hi,
Need some help understanding the COLLECT aggregate function.
My requirement is to concatenate all Varchar2 strings in a column into a single Varchar2 string...
The follwing thread seems somewhat relevant to the requirement....
collect(distinct X))
Thanks.The COLLECT docs specifically refer to working with nested tables. Are you working with one? If so post the DDL. There is a demo in Morgan's Library here: http://www.psoug.org/reference/collect_func.html#ccol
Personally this would be the last thing I'd thing of if the goal is as you state it. Well maybe not the last but far from the first.
I'd suggest looking at WM_CONCAT and then using TRANSLATE to replace the commas with '||'.
There is a demo of WM_CONCAT in Morgan's Library at www.psoug.org also.
But do check Tom Kyte's site: http://asktom.oracle.com
This is the type of thing Tom posts and his code is far better than mine. -
How to Passing clob to PL/SQL pipeline function
I have a PL/SQL stored function which takes clob as input parameter and sends the results in a pipe line.
create or replace function GetIds(p_list clob, p_del varchar2 := ',') return ideset_t pipelined is
I am using ojdbc14.jar (Oracle 10g driver) with oracle 9i (9.2.0.1.0).
I want to use the following SQL Query select * from table(GetIds(clob))
Now the question is how can I pass the clob from JDBC?
Here is my client code
PreparedStatement stmt = con.prepareStatement("SELECT COLUMN_VALUE FROM TABLE(GETIDS(?, ','))");
stmt.setCharacterStream(1, new StringReader(str), str.length());
stmt.executeQuery();
I get the following error when I try to run the program. The same thing works fine if the chracter lenght is less than some chaaracters.

Exception in thread "main"
The setChracterStream works for any insert/update clob. Example when I tried the query (INSERT INTO CLOB_TEST VALUES(?)) setCharacterStream just works fine.
Please any one can help me how to solve this.
Thanks in advance.Hóla LuÃs,
when you pick the PL/SQL function body returning a boolean, it implicitly means that TRUE means OK, while FALSE means error, always.
In order to associate such error to a given form field, you have to go back to the page definiton / validations and specify the name of the item in the corresponding field.
When you first create the validation rule, this value is not present even if you ask for the error message inline with the field.
The error message text can be specified in the validation definition, if I am not wrong.
When you need to return special error messages, including dynamic content for instance, you can use the Function Returning Error Message type, which reports an error when the string returned by the function is not null. This comes in handy when you want to display an item's code, for example, rather than generic text.
Even in this case, you must go back to the validation and specify the name of the field if you want to see it inline.
Hope it helps,
Flavio
