Sort a column ignoring a specific word in MySQL
Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable -> ( -> Name text -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.31 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command. Here, we have inserted a name with a specific word “name”, which we need to ignore −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('John 7');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.65 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('John 6');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.42 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('John 9');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.33 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('name John 3');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.24 sec)Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
Output
This will produce the following output −
+-------------+ | Name | +-------------+ | John 7 | | John 6 | | John 9 | | name John 3 | +-------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to ignore a specific word while sorting a column −
mysql> select *from DemoTable ORDER BY TRIM(REPLACE(LOWER(Name), 'name ', ''));
Output
This will produce the following output −
+-------------+ | Name | +-------------+ | name John 3 | | John 6 | | John 7 | | John 9 | +-------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
