Rank Scores
Write a SQL query to rank scores. If there is a tie between two scores, both should have the same ranking. Note that after a tie, the next ranking number should be the next consecutive integer value. In other words, there should be no “holes” between ranks.
Example
±—±------+
| Id | Score |
±—±------+
| 1 | 3.50 |
| 2 | 3.65 |
| 3 | 4.00 |
| 4 | 3.85 |
| 5 | 4.00 |
| 6 | 3.65 |
±—±------+
For example, given the above Scores table, your query should generate the following report (order by highest score):
±------±-----+
| Score | Rank |
±------±-----+
| 4.00 | 1 |
| 4.00 | 1 |
| 3.85 | 2 |
| 3.65 | 3 |
| 3.65 | 3 |
| 3.50 | 4 |
±------±-----+
Solution
# Write your MySQL query statement below
SELECT s.Score,(
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (SELECT DISTINCT Score FROM Scores) tmp WHERE Score>=s.Score) Rank
FROM Scores s
ORDER BY s.Score DESC
