How to run sql query recursively?












0















For example, there is a accounts table has:



account_id | ......    
000 | ......
001 | ......
004 | ......
010 | ......
.....
198 | ......


I want to get the distribution of account id, instead of running following query again and again, is there any smarter way to get id count for 000-010, 010-020, ..., 190-200? Thanks



SELECT count(account_id)
FROM accounts
WHERE account_id >= '000' AND account_id <= '010';

  • You mean iteratively. Although I'm suspicious of trying to segment ids this way, because (if they're auto-gen), the values are meaningless, and you should be using some natural key.

You can divide the account_id by 10 to create a range and then group by the divided result to get the result you want:



SELECT CONCAT(LPAD(FLOOR(account_id/10)*10,3, '0'), '-', LPAD(FLOOR(account_id/10)*10+9, 3, '0')) AS `range`,
COUNT(*) AS number
FROM accounts
GROUP BY `range`


Output (for some sample data in my demo):



range       number
000-009 3
010-019 2
020-029 1
030-039 1
040-049 1
050-059 2

You would use group by:



select (case when account_id >= '000' and account_id <= '010' then '000-010'
when account_id >= '011' and account_id <= '020' then '011-020'
when account_id >= '021' and account_id <= '030' then '021-030'
. . .
end) as account_id_grp,
count(*)
from accounts
group by account_id_grp
order by account_id_grp;

         select t1.account_id ||'-'||t2.
    account_id,count(*) from
    table t1 where account_id IN (Select account_id from
    table t2 where t2.account_id-t1.account_id=10)`



    I tried like taking difference of the account ids in the tables via corelated subquery
