Group by, having , order by

In MySQL, GROUP BY, HAVING, and ORDER BY are clauses used in SQL queries to group, filter, and sort the result set. Here’s an explanation of each:

GROUP BY

The GROUP BY clause groups rows that have the same values into summary rows, like "find the total quantity sold for each product". It is often used with aggregate functions such as SUM(), AVG(), MAX(), MIN(), and COUNT().

HAVING

The HAVING clause is used to filter groups of rows created by the GROUP BY clause. It is similar to the WHERE clause but is used with aggregated data.

ORDER BY

The ORDER BY clause is used to sort the result set of a query by one or more columns. By default, it sorts in ascending order, but you can specify DESC to sort in descending order

Example:
-- Create Products table
CREATE TABLE Products (
    ProductID INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    ProductName VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL
);

-- Insert sample data into Products
INSERT INTO Products (ProductName) VALUES
('Product A'), -- ProductID 1
('Product B'), -- ProductID 2
('Product C'); -- ProductID 3

-- Create Customers table
CREATE TABLE Customers (
    CustomerID INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    CustomerName VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL
);

-- Insert sample data into Customers
INSERT INTO Customers (CustomerName) VALUES
('Customer X'), -- CustomerID 1
('Customer Y'), -- CustomerID 2
('Customer Z'); -- CustomerID 3

-- Create Sales table
CREATE TABLE Sales (
    SaleID INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    ProductID INT,
    CustomerID INT,
    SaleDate DATE,
    Quantity INT,
    UnitPrice DECIMAL(10, 2),
    TotalPrice DECIMAL(10, 2),
    FOREIGN KEY (ProductID) REFERENCES Products(ProductID),
    FOREIGN KEY (CustomerID) REFERENCES Customers(CustomerID)
);

-- Insert sample data into Sales
INSERT INTO Sales (ProductID, CustomerID, SaleDate, Quantity, UnitPrice, TotalPrice) VALUES
(1, 1, '2024-01-01', 2, 15.00, 30.00),
(2, 2, '2024-01-02', 1, 25.00, 25.00),
(1, 3, '2024-01-03', 3, 15.00, 45.00),
(3, 1, '2024-01-04', 4, 10.00, 40.00),
(1, 2, '2024-01-05', 1, 15.00, 15.00),
(2, 3, '2024-01-06', 2, 25.00, 50.00);


Example Queries
1. GROUP BY with ORDER BY

Get the total quantity sold for each product, ordered by total quantity sold in descending order.

SELECT ProductID, SUM(Quantity) AS TotalQuantity
FROM Sales
GROUP BY ProductID
ORDER BY TotalQuantity DESC;

Output:

+-----------+---------------+
| ProductID | TotalQuantity |
+-----------+---------------+
|         1 |             6 |
|         3 |             4 |
|         2 |             3 |
+-----------+---------------+

2. GROUP BY with HAVING

Get the products where the total quantity sold is greater than 3.

SELECT ProductID, SUM(Quantity) AS TotalQuantity
FROM Sales
GROUP BY ProductID
HAVING SUM(Quantity) > 3;


Output:
+-----------+---------------+
| ProductID | TotalQuantity |
+-----------+---------------+
|         1 |             6 |
|         3 |             4 |
+-----------+---------------+

3.GROUP BY with HAVING and ORDER BY
Get the products where the total quantity sold is greater than 3, ordered by total sales amount in descending order.
SELECT ProductID, SUM(Quantity) AS TotalQuantity, SUM(TotalPrice) AS TotalSales
FROM Sales
GROUP BY ProductID
HAVING SUM(Quantity) > 3
ORDER BY TotalSales DESC;

Output:

+-----------+---------------+
| ProductID | TotalQuantity |
+-----------+---------------+
|         1 |             6 |
|         3 |             4 |
+-----------+---------------+

4. GROUP BY with multiple columns

Get the total sales amount for each product per customer.
SELECT ProductID, CustomerID, SUM(TotalPrice) AS TotalSales
FROM Sales
GROUP BY ProductID, CustomerID
ORDER BY ProductID, CustomerID;

Output:

+-----------+------------+------------+
| ProductID | CustomerID | TotalSales |
+-----------+------------+------------+
|         1 |          1 |      30.00 |
|         1 |          2 |      15.00 |
|         1 |          3 |      45.00 |
|         2 |          2 |      25.00 |
|         2 |          3 |      50.00 |
|         3 |          1 |      40.00 |
+-----------+------------+------------+

Procedures in PL/SQL

Procedures in PL/SQL (Procedural Language/Structured Query Language) are a way to encapsulate a set of SQL and PL/SQL statements that perform a specific task. They are stored in the database and can be executed as needed, providing a modular and reusable approach to database programming. Here’s an overview of creating and using procedures in PL/SQL: Creating a Procedure To create a procedure, you use the CREATE PROCEDURE statement followed by the procedure's name, parameters (if any), and the body of the procedure, which contains the executable code. Here’s a basic syntax: CREATE [OR REPLACE] PROCEDURE procedure_name     [ (parameter_name [IN | OUT | IN OUT] datatype [, ...]) ] IS    -- Declaration of variables BEGIN    -- Executable statements EXCEPTION    -- Exception handling END procedure_name; Example Here’s a simple example of a PL/SQL procedure that inserts a new employee record into an employees table: CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE add_employee (     p_emp_id IN employees.emp

Cursors in PL/SQL

In PL/SQL, cursors are a mechanism for accessing and manipulating query result sets. A cursor allows you to fetch and process rows returned by a query one at a time. There are two main types of cursors in PL/SQL: implicit cursors and explicit cursors. Implicit Cursors PL/SQL automatically creates implicit cursors for SELECT INTO statements, and for INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and MERGE statements. Example of Implicit Cursor DECLARE     v_employee_name employees.first_name%TYPE; BEGIN     -- This SELECT INTO statement uses an implicit cursor     SELECT first_name     INTO v_employee_name     FROM employees     WHERE employee_id = 100;     DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Employee Name: ' || v_employee_name); END; In this example, PL/SQL creates an implicit cursor for the SELECT INTO statement and automatically fetches the result into the v_employee_name variable. Explicit Cursors Explicit cursors give you more control over the context area. You can open a cursor, fetch rows from the result s
