Fetch substrings from a string with words separated by slash in MySQL?
For this, you can use SUBSTRING_INDEX(). Let us first create a −
mysql> create table DemoTable1416 -> ( -> StudentCode varchar(100) -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.56 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert −
mysql> insert into DemoTable1416 values('101/John/Smith');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1416 values('901/Carol/Taylor');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1416 values('400/David/Miller');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.12 sec)Display all records from the table using select −
mysql> select * from DemoTable1416;
This will produce the following output −
+------------------+ | StudentCode | +------------------+ | 101/John/Smith | | 901/Carol/Taylor | | 400/David/Miller | +------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to fetch substrings from a string with words separated by slash −
mysql> select substring_index(StudentCode,'/',-2) from DemoTable1416;
This will produce the following output −
+-------------------------------------+ | substring_index(StudentCode,'/',-2) | +-------------------------------------+ | John/Smith | | Carol/Taylor | | David/Miller | +-------------------------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
