You can use RAND() method for this. To retrieve a random row, use the following syntaxSELECT *FROM yourTableName ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT yourIntegerNumber;To understand the above syntax, let us create a table. The query to create a table is as followsmysql> create table gettingRandomRow    -> (    -> CustomerId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,    -> CustomerName varchar(100)    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.45 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into gettingRandomRow(CustomerName) values('Chris'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec) mysql> insert into gettingRandomRow(CustomerName) values('Robert'); ...

You can use IF() to GROUP BY multiple columns. To understand the concept, let us create a table. The query to create a table is as followsmysql> create table MultipleGroupByDemo    -> (    -> Id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,    -> CustomerId int,    -> ProductName varchar(100)    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.59 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into MultipleGroupByDemo(CustomerId, ProductName) values(1000, 'Product-1'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec) mysql> insert into MultipleGroupByDemo(CustomerId, ProductName) values(1001, 'Product-2'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 ...

To sum columns across multiple tables, use UNION ALL. To understand the concept, let us create first table. The query to create first table is as followsmysql> create table Products1    -> (    -> ProductId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,    -> ProductName varchar(20),    -> ProductPrice int    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.50 sec)Insert some records in the first table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into Products1(ProductName, ProductPrice) values('Product-1', 100); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.22 sec) mysql> insert into Products1(ProductName, ProductPrice) values('Product-2', 200); Query OK, 1 row affected ...

To achieve this, you need to set sql_log_bin to 0. To understand the concept, let us create a table. The query to create a table is as followsmysql> create table SQLStatementsDemo    -> (    -> UserId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,    -> UserName varchar(20)    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.79 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into SQLStatementsDemo(UserName) values('John'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec) mysql> insert into SQLStatementsDemo(UserName) values('Carol'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec) mysql> insert into SQLStatementsDemo(UserName) values('Bob'); Query ...

Yes, deleting row from view delete row from base table. Let us understand this by creating a new table. The query to create a table is as followsmysql> create table deleteFromBaseTableDemo -> ( -> Id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, -> Name varchar(20) -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.83 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into deleteFromBaseTableDemo(Name) values('John'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec) mysql> insert into deleteFromBaseTableDemo(Name) values('Carol'); Query OK, 1 row affected ...

To get distinct values and count them, you can use GROUP BY clause.The syntax is as followsselect yourColumnName, count(*) as anyAliasName from yourTableName group by yourColumnName;To understand the above syntax, let us create a table. The query to create a table is as followsmysql> create table GroupByAndCountDemo    -> (    -> ClientId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,    -> ClientName varchar(100)    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.64 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into GroupByAndCountDemo(ClientName) values('John'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec) mysql> insert ... Read More

To understand the concept, let us first create a table. The query to create a table is as followsmysql> create table ReorderSortDemo -> ( -> UserId int -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.57 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into ReorderSortDemo values(14); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec) mysql> insert into ReorderSortDemo values(4); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.10 sec) mysql> insert into ReorderSortDemo values(6); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec) mysql> insert into ReorderSortDemo values(3); Query ...

You can use COALESCE() function for this. In the COALESCE() function, it returns the first NON NULL value from the column. To understand the concept, let us first create a demo tablemysql> create table combineTwoColumnsDemo    -> (    -> UserId int,    -> UserName varchar(20),    -> UserAge int    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.12 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into combineTwoColumnsDemo values(101, 'John', 23); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec) mysql> insert into combineTwoColumnsDemo values(102, 'Carol', 20); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 ...

You can use aggregate function SUM() along with IF to determine if a value appears in a GROUP BY group.Let us first create a demo tablemysql> create table GroupbygroupDemo -> ( -> UserId int, -> UserName varchar(20) -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.48 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into GroupbygroupDemo values(10, 'John'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec) mysql> insert into GroupbygroupDemo values(10, 'Carol'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.08 sec) mysql> insert into ...

You can stop rounding decimal field with the help of DECIMAL() function. Here is the demo of a rounded decimal field. For our example, let us first create a demo tablemysql> create table stopRoundingDemo    -> (    -> Amount DECIMAL(7)    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.67 sec)Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query is as follows −mysql> insert into stopRoundingDemo values(7836.783); Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.43 sec) mysql> insert into stopRoundingDemo values(1737.67); Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.23 sec) mysql> insert into stopRoundingDemo values(110.50); Query OK, 1 ...
