Retrieval Queries in SQL Basic form of the SQL SELECT statement is called a mapping or a SELECT-FROM-WHERE block SELECT <attribute list> FROM <table list> WHERE <condition> – <attribute list> is a list of attribute names whose values are to be retrieved by the query – <table list> is a list of the relation names required to process the query – <condition> is a conditional (Boolean) expression that identifies the tuples to be retrieved by the query 2By:-Gourav Kottawar

Simple Queries Query 0: Retrieve the birthdate and address of the employee whose name is 'John B. Smith'. Query 1: Retrieve the name and address of all employees who work for the 'Research' department. Q0: SELECT BDATE, ADDRESS FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE FNAME='John' AND MINIT='B’ AND LNAME='Smith’ Q1: SELECT FNAME, LNAME, ADDRESS FROM EMPLOYEE, DEPARTMENT WHERE DNAME='Research' AND DNUMBER=DNO 5By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. Q2: SELECT PNUMBER, DNUM, LNAME, BDATE, ADDRESS FROM PROJECT, DEPARTMENT, EMPLOYEE WHERE DNUM=DNUMBER AND MGRSSN=SSN AND PLOCATION='Stafford' Query 3: For each employee, retrieve the employee's name, and the name of his or her immediate supervisor. Q3: SELECT E.FNAME, E.LNAME, S.FNAME, S.LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE E S WHERE E.SUPERSSN=S.SSN Query 2: For every project located in 'Stafford', list the project number, the controlling department number, and the department manager's last name, address, and birthdate. 6By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. Q4: (SELECT PNAME FROM PROJECT, DEPARTMENT, EMPLOYEE WHERE DNUM=DNUMBER AND MGRSSN=SSN AND LNAME='Smith') UNION (SELECT PNAME FROM PROJECT, WORKS_ON, EMPLOYEE WHERE PNUMBER=PNO AND ESSN=SSN AND LNAME='Smith') Query 4: Make a list of all project numbers for projects that involve an employee whose last name is 'Smith' as a worker or as a manager of the department that controls the project. 7By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. Q5: SELECT E.FNAME, E.LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE AS E WHERE E.SSN IN (SELECT ESSN FROM DEPENDENT WHERE ESSN=E.SSN AND E.FNAME=DEPENDENT_NAME) Query 5: Retrieve the name of each employee who has a dependent with the same first name as the employee. Q5A: SELECT E.FNAME, E.LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE E, DEPENDENT D WHERE E.SSN=D.ESSN AND E.FNAME=D.DEPENDENT_NAME The comparison operator IN compares a value v with a set (or multi-set) of values V, and evaluates to TRUE if v is one of the elements in V 8By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. EXISTS Q5B: SELECT FNAME, LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM DEPENDENT WHERE SSN=ESSN AND FNAME=DEPENDENT_NAME) EXISTS is used to check whether the result of a correlated nested query is empty (contains no tuples) or not 9By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. explicit (enumerated) set of values Query 6: Retrieve the social security numbers of all employees who work on project number 1, 2, or 3. Q6: SELECT DISTINCT ESSN FROM WORKS_ON WHERE PNO IN (1, 2, 3) It is also possible to use an explicit (enumerated) set of values in the WHERE-clause rather than a nested query 10By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. Query 7: Retrieve the name of each employee who works on all the projects controlled by department number 5. Q7: SELECT FNAME, LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE ( (SELECT PNO FROM WORKS_ON WHERE SSN=ESSN) CONTAINS (SELECT PNUMBER FROM PROJECT WHERE DNUM=5) ) The CONTAINS operator compares two sets of values , and returns TRUE if one set contains all values in the other set (reminiscent of the division operation of algebra). 11By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. Null Value Query 8: Retrieve the names of all employees who do not have supervisors. Q8: SELECT FNAME, LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE SUPERSSN IS NULL SQL uses IS or IS NOT to compare NULLs because it considers each NULL value distinct from other NULL Note: If a join condition is specified, tuples with NULL values for the join attributes are not included in the result 12By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. JOIN Can be written as: QTA: SELECT E.FNAME, E.LNAME, S.FNAME, S.LNAME FROM (EMPLOYEE E LEFT OUTER JOIN EMPLOYEES ON E.SUPERSSN=S.SSN) QT: SELECT E.FNAME, E.LNAME, S.FNAME, S.LNAME FROM EMPLOYEE E S WHERE E.SUPERSSN=S.SSN 13By:-Gourav Kottawar
Some Queries Cont. JOIN Can be written as: Q9A: SELECT FNAME, LNAME, ADDRESS FROM (EMPLOYEE JOIN DEPARTMENT ON DNUMBER=DNO) WHERE DNAME='Research’ Q9: SELECT FNAME, LNAME, ADDRESS FROM EMPLOYEE, DEPARTMENT WHERE DNAME='Research' AND DNUMBER=DNO Or as: Q9B: SELECT FNAME, LNAME, ADDRESS FROM (EMPLOYEE NATURAL JOIN DEPARTMENT AS DEPT(DNAME, DNO, MSSN, MSDATE) WHERE DNAME='Research’ 14By:-Gourav Kottawar

Q10: SELECT MAX(SALARY), MIN(SALARY), AVG(SALARY) FROM EMPLOYEE Include COUNT, SUM, MAX, MIN, and AVG Query 11: Find the maximum salary, the minimum salary, and the average salary among employees who work for the 'Research' department. Q11: SELECT MAX(SALARY), MIN(SALARY), AVG(SALARY) FROM EMPLOYEE, DEPARTMENT WHERE DNO=DNUMBER AND DNAME='Research' 16By:-Gourav Kottawar
Group by Query 12: For each department, retrieve the department number, the number of employees in the department, and their average salary. Q12: SELECT DNO, COUNT (*), AVG (SALARY) FROM EMPLOYEE GROUP BY DNO SQL has a GROUP BY-clause for specifying the grouping attributes, which must also appear in the SELECT-clause Query 13: For each project, retrieve the project number, project name, and the number of employees who work on that project. Q13: SELECT PNUMBER, PNAME, COUNT (*) FROM PROJECT, WORKS_ON WHERE PNUMBER=PNO GROUP BY PNUMBER, PNAME 17By:-Gourav Kottawar

Q14: SELECT PNUMBER, PNAME, COUNT (*) FROM PROJECT, WORKS_ON WHERE PNUMBER=PNO GROUP BY PNUMBER, PNAME HAVING COUNT (*) > 2 lThe HAVING-clause is used for specifying a selection condition on groups (rather than on individual tuples) 18By:-Gourav Kottawar
Summary of SQL Queries  A query in SQL can consist of up to six clauses, but only the first two, SELECT and FROM, are mandatory. The clauses are specified in the following order: SELECT <attribute list> FROM <table list> [WHERE <condition>] [GROUP BY <grouping attribute(s)>] [HAVING <group condition>] [ORDER BY <attribute list>] 19By:-Gourav Kottawar
Summary of SQL Queries (cont.)  The SELECT-clause lists the attributes or functions to be retrieved  The FROM-clause specifies all relations (or aliases) needed in the query but not those needed in nested queries  The WHERE-clause specifies the conditions for selection and join of tuples from the relations specified in the FROM-clause  GROUP BY specifies grouping attributes  HAVING specifies a condition for selection of groups  ORDER BY specifies an order for displaying the result of a query  A query is evaluated by first applying the WHERE- clause, then  GROUP BY and HAVING, and finally the SELECT- clause 20By:-Gourav Kottawar
