MySQL query to group rows by the numeric characters in a string field?
Fir this, you can concatenate 0 with string field with the help of + operator. The scenario here is like we need to fetch numeric “9844” from a string field “9844Bob”.
Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable ( StudentId varchar(100) ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.92 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('9844Bob');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('6375DavidMiller');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('007');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.09 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('97474BobBrown');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('9844Bob56Taylor');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec)Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+-----------------+ | StudentId | +-----------------+ | 9844Bob | | 6375DavidMiller | | 007 | | 97474BobBrown | | 9844Bob56Taylor | +-----------------+ 5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to group rows by the numeric characters in a string field −
mysql> select StudentId,0+StudentId as GroupValue from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+-----------------+------------+ | StudentId | GroupValue | +-----------------+------------+ | 9844Bob | 9844 | | 6375DavidMiller | 6375 | | 007 | 7 | | 97474BobBrown | 97474 | | 9844Bob56Taylor | 9844 | +-----------------+------------+ 5 rows in set, 4 warnings (0.00 sec)
