How to concatenate strings using both GROUP_CONCAT() and CONCAT() in the same MySQL query?
The CONCAT() method is used to concat, whereas GROUP_CONCAT() is used to concatenate strings from a group in a single string.
Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable799 ( UserId int, UserName varchar(100), UserAge int ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.56 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable799 values(101,'John',21); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable799 values(102,'Chris',26); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.22 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable799 values(101,'Robert',23); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable799 values(103,'David',24); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.10 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable799 values(101,'Mike',29); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable799;
This will produce the following output -
+--------+----------+---------+ | UserId | UserName | UserAge | +--------+----------+---------+ | 101 | John | 21 | | 102 | Chris | 26 | | 101 | Robert | 23 | | 103 | David | 24 | | 101 | Mike | 29 | +--------+----------+---------+ 5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the query to concatenate strings with CONCAT() and GROUP_CONCAT() −
mysql> select UserId,GROUP_CONCAT(CONCAT('MR.', UserName)) from DemoTable799 group by UserId;This will produce the following output -
+--------+---------------------------------------+
| UserId | GROUP_CONCAT(CONCAT('MR.', UserName)) |
+--------+---------------------------------------+
| 101 | MR.John,MR.Robert,MR.Mike |
| 102 | MR.Chris |
| 103 | MR.David |
+--------+---------------------------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
