Getting Results in Horizontal way in oracle - oracle

I wrote query
select s_id from emp
where s_inv=12
i got results in this manner
1
2
3
4
5
but i want it in this format
1 2 3 4 5

If you need your result in a single column, you can use LISTAGG:
with emp(s_id, s_inv) as
(
select 1, 12 from dual union all
select 2, 12 from dual union all
select 3, 12 from dual union all
select 4, 12 from dual union all
select 5, 12 from dual
)
select listagg(s_id, ' ') within group (order by s_id)
from emp
where s_inv = 12
If you need to build many columns on the same row, you should first define how many columns will your result have

How to select the first 5 dates from each group and put them in a single column separated by comma in Oracle?

I have a table like this:
Division
Region
Date of Last Visit
1
2
11/20/2021
1
2
11/18/2021
1
7
10/18/2021
1
7
11/19/2021
2
2
11/17/2021
2
3
09/20/2021
2
3
10/20/2021
I want to write a query that groups by the division and region columns and gives me the last 5 dates for each group separated by commas in a single column. Something like this:
Division
Region
Date of Last Visit
Today
Days since last visit
1
2
11/20/2021, 11/18/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
1
7
10/18/2021, 11/19/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
2
2
11/17/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
2
3
9/20/2021, 10/20/2021
sysdate
sysdate - max(date of last visit)
The last two columns are custom calculated columns that I also need for the final output table. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have tried a lot of things but I keep getting errors about it not being grouped properly, possibly because of the two extra columns at the end. But even without that, I am not sure how to fetch only the last 5 dates per group in oracle.
Thanks!
You want to filter the greatest-n-per-group using the ROW_NUMBER analytic function and then aggregate:
SELECT division,
region,
LISTAGG(TO_CHAR(date_of_last_visit, 'DD/MM/YYYY'), ',')
WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY date_of_last_visit DESC)
AS date_of_last_visit,
SYSDATE AS today,
TRUNC(SYSDATE - MAX(date_of_last_visit)) AS days_since_last_visit
FROM (
SELECT t.*,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY division, region
ORDER BY date_of_last_visit DESC) AS rn
FROM table_name t
)
WHERE rn <= 5
GROUP BY
division,
region
Which, for the sample data:
CREATE TABLE table_name (division, region, date_of_last_visit) as
select 1, 2, date '2021-11-20' from dual union all
select 1, 2, date '2021-11-18' from dual union all
select 1, 7, date '2021-10-18' from dual union all
select 1, 7, date '2021-11-19' from dual union all
select 2, 2, date '2021-11-17' from dual union all
select 2, 3, date '2021-09-20' from dual union all
select 2, 3, date '2021-10-20' from dual;
Outputs:
DIVISION
REGION
DATE_OF_LAST_VISIT
TODAY
DAYS_SINCE_LAST_VISIT

Oracle Apex Pivot sorting

I have an interactive report, which using Pivot, but I was trying to custom sort the report by row column of pivot "Age Group", but I couldn't.
I need this report in such this sorting:
How I can do that?
Thanks
Looks like you'd want to sort by the first digit(s), and then by age_group itself (as a string). Something like this (sample data in lines #1 - 10; query you might be interested in begins at line #11):
SQL> with test (age_group) as
2 (select 'wahine 45-64' from dual union all
3 select 'wahine 25-44' from dual union all
4 select 'rangtahi 15-24' from dual union all
5 select 'pepis 0_4' from dual union all
6 select 'pakeke 45-64' from dual union all
7 select 'pakeke 25-44' from dual union all
8 select 'N/A' from dual union all
9 select 'kuia 65+' from dual
10 )
11 select age_group
12 from test
13 order by to_number(regexp_substr(age_group, '\d+')), age_group;

Oracle SQL Select Query Getting Max Row As a Fraction of a Rollup Total

hoping I might be able to get some advise regarding Oracle SQL…
I have a table roughly as follows (there are more columns, but not necessary for this example)…
LOCATION USER VALUE
1 1 10
1 2 20
1 3 30
2 4 10
2 5 10
2 6 20
1 60
2 40
100
I’ve used rollup to get subtotals.
What I need to do is get the max(value) row for each location and express the max(value) as a percentage or fraction of the subtotal for each location
ie:
LOCATION USER FRAC
1 3 0.5
2 6 0.5
I could probably solve this using my limited knowledge of select queries, but am guessing there must be a fairly quick and slick method..
Thanks in advance :)
Solution using analytic functions
(Please note the WITH MY_TABLE AS serving only as dummy datasource)
WITH MY_TABLE AS
( SELECT 1 AS LOC_ID,1 AS USER_ID, 10 AS VAL FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 1,2,20 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 1,3,30 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 2,4,10 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 2,5,10 FROM DUAL
UNION
SELECT 2,6,20 FROM DUAL
)
SELECT LOC_ID,
USER_ID,
RATIO_IN_LOC
FROM
(SELECT LOC_ID,
USER_ID,
RATIO_IN_LOC,
RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY LOC_ID ORDER BY RATIO_IN_LOC DESC) AS ORDER_IN_LOC
FROM
(SELECT LOC_ID,
USER_ID,
VAL,
VAL/SUM(VAL) OVER (PARTITION BY LOC_ID) AS RATIO_IN_LOC
FROM MY_TABLE
)
)
WHERE ORDER_IN_LOC = 1
ORDER BY LOC_ID,
USER_ID;
Result
LOC_ID USER_ID RATIO_IN_LOC
1 3 0,5
2 6 0,5
with inputs ( location, person, value ) as (
select 1, 1, 10 from dual union all
select 1, 2, 20 from dual union all
select 1, 3, 30 from dual union all
select 2, 4, 10 from dual union all
select 2, 5, 10 from dual union all
select 2, 6, 20 from dual
),
prep ( location, person, value, m_value, total ) as (
select location, person, value,
max(value) over (partition by location),
sum(value) over (partition by location)
from inputs
)
select location, person, round(value/total, 2) as frac
from prep
where value = m_value;
Notes: Your table exists already? Then skip everything from "inputs" to the comma; your query should begin with with prep (...) as ( ...
I changed user to person since user is a keyword in Oracle, you shouldn't use it for table or column names (actually you can't unless you use double quotes, which is a very poor practice).
The query will output two or three or more rows per location if there are ties at the top. Presumably this is what you desire.
Output:
LOCATION PERSON FRAC

Can I update a particular attribute of a tuple with the same attribute of another tuple of same table? If possible what should be the algorithm?

Suppose I have a table with 10 records/tuples. Now I want to update an attribute of 6th record with the same attribute of 1st record, 2nd-7th, 3rd-8th, 4th-9th, 5th-10th in a go i.e. without using cursor/loop. Use of any number of temporary table is allowed. What is the strategy to do so?
PostgreSQL (and probably other RDBMSes) let you use self-joins in UPDATE statements just as you can in SELECT statements:
UPDATE tbl
SET attr = t2.attr
FROM tbl t2
WHERE tbl.id = t2.id + 5
AND tbl.id >= 6
This would be easy with an update-with-join but Oracle doesn't do that and the closest substitute can be very tricky to get to work. Here is the easiest way. It involves a subquery to get the new value and a correlated subquery in the where clause. It looks complicated but the set subquery should be self-explanatory.
The where subquery really only has one purpose: it connects the two tables, much as the on clause would do if we could do a join. Except that the field used from the main table (the one being updated) must be a key field. As it turns out, with the self "join" being performed below, they are both the same field, but it is required.
Add to the where clause other restraining criteria, as shown.
update Tuples t1
set t1.Attr =(
select t2.Attr
from Tuples t2
where t2.Attr = t1.Attr - 5 )
where exists(
select t2.KeyVal
from Tuples t2
where t1.KeyVal = t2.KeyVal)
and t1.Attr > 5;
SqlFiddle is pulling a hissy fit right now so here the data used:
create table Tuples(
KeyVal int not null primary key,
Attr int
);
insert into Tuples
select 1, 1 from dual union all
select 2, 2 from dual union all
select 3, 3 from dual union all
select 4, 4 from dual union all
select 5, 5 from dual union all
select 6, 6 from dual union all
select 7, 7 from dual union all
select 8, 8 from dual union all
select 9, 9 from dual union all
select 10, 10 from dual;
The table starts out looking like this:
KEYVAL ATTR
------ ----
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5
6 6
7 7
8 8
9 9
10 10
with this result:
KEYVAL ATTR
------ ----
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5
6 1
7 2
8 3
9 4
10 5

plsql: Getting another field values along with the aggregation values in a grouping statement

I am working on a time attendance system. I have the employees' transactions stored in the following table:
I want to get the earliest and the latest transactions for each employee including their date and type.
I am able to get the dates using grouping and aggregation. However, I am not able to figure out how to get types with them.
Would you please help me in it.
Thank you.
That's what the FIRST and LAST aggregate functions are designed for.

And here is an example:
SQL> create table my_transactions (id,employee_id,action_date,type)
2 as

4 select 2, 1, sysdate-1, 'B' from dual union all

You could try to use analytical(or windowing functions)
select *
from
(select id, employee_id, action_date,type,
max(action_date) over (partition by employee_id) max_action_date,
min(action_date) over (partition by employee_id) min_action_date
from transaction)
where action_date in (max_action_date, min_action_date)
