The Employee
table holds all employees. Every employee has an Id, a salary, and there is also a column for the department Id.
+----+-------+--------+--------------+ | Id | Name | Salary | DepartmentId | +----+-------+--------+--------------+ | 1 | Joe | 70000 | 1 | | 2 | Henry | 80000 | 2 | | 3 | Sam | 60000 | 2 | | 4 | Max | 90000 | 1 | +----+-------+--------+--------------+
The Department
table holds all departments of the company.
+----+----------+ | Id | Name | +----+----------+ | 1 | IT | | 2 | Sales | +----+----------+
Write a SQL query to find employees who have the highest salary in each of the departments. For the above tables, Max has the highest salary in the IT department and Henry has the highest salary in the Sales department.
+------------+----------+--------+ | Department | Employee | Salary | +------------+----------+--------+ | IT | Max | 90000 | | Sales | Henry | 80000 | +------------+----------+--------+第一欠考虑的情况:
select Department.Name as Department,Employee.name as Employee ,max(Employee.Salary) as Salary from Employee join Department on Employee.DepartmentId=Department.Id group by Employee.DepartmentId;
(这种情况只能显示部门只有一个薪资最高的情况,如果有多个人薪资同时达到最高,就只显示一个)
正解:
SELECT dep.Name as Department, emp.Name as Employee, emp.Salary
from Department dep, Employee emp
where emp.DepartmentId=dep.Id
and emp.Salary=(Select max(Salary) from Employee e2 where e2.DepartmentId=dep.Id)
