题目:
Write a SQL query to get the nth highest salary from the Employee
table.
+----+--------+ | Id | Salary | +----+--------+ | 1 | 100 | | 2 | 200 | | 3 | 300 | +----+--------+
For example, given the above Employee table, the nth highest salary where n = 2 is 200
. If there is no nth highest salary, then the query should return null
.
把所有salary去重后排序,然后通过limit方法取出第n大的数。代码如下:
CREATE FUNCTION getNthHighestSalary(N INT) RETURNS INT
BEGIN
DECLARE N1 INT;
SET N1 = N-1;
RETURN (
# Write your MySQL query statement below.
SELECT Salary FROM (SELECT DISTINCT Salary FROM Employee) e ORDER BY Salary DESC LIMIT N1,1
);
END
注意:limit后面一定不能写N-1,因为limit后面不能跟表达式。
