SQL & PL/SQL :: Getting DISTINCT Count From Two Different Columns?
Feb 1, 2012I have following query which gives currency code from two different tables. I would like to get the distinct count of currency codes from these two different columns.
SELECT eb.person_seq_id, eb.bonus_amount, eb.currency_cd, ed.currency_cd_host
FROM fr_emp_bonuses eb, fr_emp_details ed, fr_periods p
WHERE eb.person_seq_id = ed.person_seq_id AND ed.period_seq_id = eb.period_seq_id
AND ed.period_seq_id = p.period_seq_id AND p.period_status = 'CURRENT'
AND eb.bonus_amount >= 0 AND eb.person_seq_id = 3525125;
This query gives following result
3525125240000USDINR
35251250 USDINR
352512560000 USDINR
352512550000 USDINR
There are two distinct currency codes (USD, INR) and total amount is 350000. So I am looking for a query to give me the following result

SQL & PL/SQL :: Count Distinct Rows In Table
Feb 21, 2013I think this is easier than I think but all I want to do is count the distinct rows in a table.
WITH data AS
(SELECT 1 id1, 1 id2, 111 val1
FROM dual
UNION ALL
SELECT 1, 2, 222
FROM dual
UNION ALL
[Code]..
seems to get what I want
ID1VAL1CNT1
111114
212224
321114
422224
but can the count be done in a stand alone query such as??
SELECT DISTINCT id1,
val1,
COUNT(*) over() cnt1,
COUNT(*) over(PARTITION BY id1) cnt2
FROM data
ORDER BY id1, val1
NOT what I want
ID1VAL1CNT1CNT2
1111152
2122252
3211153
4222253

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Find Whether Exact String Is Present / Not In Given String
Mar 14, 2013I'm facing some problem even after using INSTR function in Oracle.The problem is I have written the logic in the PL/SQL block which appends all the values fetched in a loop on the basis of whether the string is present or not.
For ex:
The first value fetched from the select query first is ABCDEFG which gets appended to a variable
The next value fetched is AB even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The next value fetched is BCDEF even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The third Value fetched is ABCDEFG this will not get appended presently according to the logic which is correct.
writing that piece of code to append the value fetched which doesn't exactly match with the existing string
