MYSQL最基本的子查询使用
1. 基本使用
- 子查询的基本语法结构:
- 子查询(内查询)在主查询之前一次执行完成。
- 子查询的结果被主查询(外查询)使用 。
- 注意事项
- 子查询要包含在括号内
- 将子查询放在比较条件的右侧
- 单行操作符对应单行子查询,多行操作符对应多行子查询
2. 子查询的分类
分类方式1:
我们按内查询的结果返回一条还是多条记录,将子查询分为 单行子查询 、 多行子查询 。
- 单行子查询
- 多行子查询
分类方式2:
我们按内查询是否被执行多次,将子查询划分为 相关(或关联)子查询 和 不相关(或非关联)子查询 。
子查询从数据表中查询了数据结果,如果这个数据结果只执行一次,然后这个数据结果作为主查询的条件进行执行,那么这样的子查询叫做不相关子查询。
同样,如果子查询需要执行多次,即采用循环的方式,先从外部查询开始,每次都传入子查询进行查询,然后再将结果反馈给外部,这种嵌套的执行方式就称为相关子查询。
3. 单行子查询
1) 单行比较操作符
操作符 | 含义 |
---|---|
= | equal to |
> | greater than |
>= | greater than or equal to |
< | less than |
<= | less than or equal to |
<> | not equal to |
2) 代码示例
- 题目:返回job_id与141号员工相同,salary比143号员工多的员工姓名,job_id和工资
SELECT last_name, job_id, salary
FROM eployees
WHERE job_id = (
SELECT job_id
FROM eployees
WHERE employee_id = 141
)
AND salary > (
SELECT salary
FROM eployees
WHERE employee_id = 143
);
- 题目:查询与141号或174号员工的manager_id和department_id相同的其他员工的employee_id, manager_id,department_id
# 实现方式一:不成对比较
SELECT employee_id, manager_id, department_id
FROM employees
WHERE manager_id IN
(SELECT manager_id
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id IN (174,141))
AND department_id IN
(SELECT department_id
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id IN (174,141))
AND employee_id NOT IN(174,141);
# 实现方式二:成对比较
SELECT employee_id, manager_id, department_id
FROM employees
WHERE (manager_id, department_id) IN
(SELECT manager_id, department_id
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id IN (141,174))
AND employee_id NOT IN (141,174);
- 题目:查询最低工资大于50号部门最低工资的部门id和其最低工资
SELECT department_id, MIN(salary)
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
HAVING MIN(salary) >
(SELECT MIN(salary)
FROM employees
WHERE department_id = 50);
3) CASE中的子查询
题目:显式员工的employee_id,last_name和location。其中,若员工department_id与location_id为1800 的department_id相同,则location为’Canada’,其余则为’USA’。
SELECT employee_id, last_name,
(CASE department_id
WHEN
(SELECT department_id FROM departments
WHERE location_id = 1800)
THEN 'Canada' ELSE 'USA' END) location
FROM employees;
4) 子查询中的空值问题
SELECT last_name, job_id
FROM employees
WHERE job_id =
(SELECT job_id
FROM employees
WHERE last_name = 'Haas');
子查询不返回任何行
5) 非法使用子查询
SELECT employee_id, last_name
FROM employees
WHERE salary =
(SELECT MIN(salary)
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id);
多行子查询使用单行比较符
4. 多行子查询
- 也称为集合比较子查询
- 内查询返回多行
- 使用多行比较操作符
1) 多行比较操作符
操作符 | 含义 |
---|---|
IN | 等于列表中的任意一个 |
ANY | 需要和单行比较操作符一起使用,和子查询返回的某一个值比较 |
ALL | 需要和单行比较操作符一起使用,和子查询返回的所有值比较 |
SOME | 实际上是ANY的别名,作用相同,一般常使用ANY |
2) 代码示例
- 题目:返回其它job_id中比job_id为‘IT_PROG’部门任一工资低的员工的员工号、姓名、job_id 以及salary
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, salary
FROM employees
WHERE job_id <> 'IT_PROG'
AND salary < ANY(
SELECT salary
FROM emplyees
WHERE job_id = 'IT_PROG'
);
- 题目:查询平均工资最低的部门id
#方式1:
SELECT department_id
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
HAVING AVG(salary) = (
SELECT MIN(avg_sal)
FROM (
SELECT AVG(salary) avg_sal
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
) dept_avg_sal
);
#方式2:
SELECT department_id
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
HAVING AVG(salary) <= ALL (
SELECT AVG(salary) avg_sal
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
);
3) 空值问题
SELECT last_name
FROM employees
WHERE employee_id NOT IN (
SELECT manager_id
FROM employees
WHERE manager_id IS NOT NULL
);
5. 相关子查询
如果子查询的执行依赖于外部查询,通常情况下都是因为子查询中的表用到了外部的表,并进行了条件 关联,因此每执行一次外部查询,子查询都要重新计算一次,这样的子查询就称之为 关联子查询 。
相关子查询按照一行接一行的顺序执行,主查询的每一行都执行一次子查询。
说明:子查询中使用主查询中的列
1) 代码示例
- 题目:查询员工中工资大于本部门平均工资的员工的last_name,salary和其department_id
# 方式一:使用相关子查询
SELECT last_name, salary, department
FROM employees e1
WHERE salary > (
SELECT AVG(salary)
FROM employees e2
WHERE department_id = e1.`department_id`
);
# 方式二:在FROM中声明子查询
SELECT e.last_name, e.salary, e.department_id
FROM employees e, (
SELECT department_id, AVG(salary) avg_sal
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id) t_dept_avg_salary
WHERE e.department_id = t_dept_avg_salary.department_id
AND e.salary > t_dept_avg_salary.avg_sal;
在ORDER BY 中使用子查询:
- 查询员工的id,salary,按照department_name 排序
SELECT employee_id, salary
FROM employees e
ORDER BY (
SELECT department_name
FROM departments d
WHERE e.`department_id` = d.`department_id`
);
- 题目:若employees表中employee_id与job_history表中employee_id相同的数目不小于2,输出这些相同 id的员工的employee_id,last_name和其job_id
SELECT e.employee_id, last_name,e.job_id
FROM employees e
WHERE 2 <= (SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM job_history
WHERE employee_id = e.employee_id
);
2) EXISTS 与 NOT EXISTS 关键字
- 关联子查询通常也会和 EXISTS操作符一起来使用,用来检查在子查询中是否存在满足条件的行。
- 如果在子查询中不存在满足条件的行:
- 条件返回 FALSE
- 继续在子查询中查找
- 如果在子查询中存在满足条件的行:
- 不在子查询中继续查找
- 条件返回 TRUE
- NOT EXISTS关键字表示如果不存在某种条件,则返回TRUE,否则返回FALSE。
题目:查询公司管理者的employee_id,last_name,job_id,department_id信息
# 方式一:EXISTS
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, department_id
FROM employees e1
WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT *
FROM employees e2
WHERE e2.manager_id =
e1.employee_id
);
# 方式二:自连接
SELECT DISTINCT e1.employee_id, e1.last_name, e1.job_id, e1.department_id
FROM employees e1 JOIN employees e2
ON e1.employee_id = e2.manager_id;
# 方式三:IN
SELECT employee_id, last_name, job_id, department_id
WHERE employee_id IN (
SELECT DISTINCT manager_id
FROM employees
);
题目:查询departments表中,不存在于employees表中的部门的department_id和department_name
# 方式一:
SELECT d.department_id, d.department_name
FROM departments e RIGHT JOIN departments d
ON e.`department_id` = d.`department_id`
WHERE e.`department_id` IS NULL;
# 方式二:
SELECT department_id, department_name
FROM departments d
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM employees e
WHERE d.`department_id` = e.`department_id`
);
3) 相关更新
UPDATE table1 alias1
SET column = (SELECT expression
FROM table2 alias2
WHERE alias1.column = alias2.column);
使用相关子查询依据一个表中的数据更新另一个表的数据。
题目:在employees中增加一个department_name字段,数据为员工对应的部门名称
# 1)
ALTER TABLE employees
ADD(department_name VARCHAR2(14));
# 2)
UPDATE employees e
SET department_name = (SELECT department_name
FROM departments d
WHERE e.department_id = d.department_id);
4) 相关删除
DELETE FROM table1 alias1
WHERE column operator (SELECT expression
FROM table2 alias2
WHERE alias1.column = alias2.column);
使用相关子查询依据一个表中的数据删除另一个表的数据。
题目:删除表employees中,其与emp_history表皆有的数据
DELETE FROM employees e
WHERE employee_id in(
SELECT employee_id
FROM emp_history
WHERE employee_id = e.employee_id
);
6. 思考题
问题:谁的工资比Abel的高? 解答:
#方式1:自连接
SELECT e2.last_name,e2.salary
FROM employees e1,employees e2
WHERE e1.last_name = 'Abel'
AND e1.`salary` < e2.`salary`;
#方式2:子查询
SELECT last_name,salary
FROM employees
WHERE salary > (
SELECT salary
FROM employees
WHERE last_name = 'Abel'
);
问题:以上两种方式有好坏之分吗?
解答:自连接方式好!
题目中可以使用子查询,也可以使用自连接。一般情况建议你使用自连接,因为在许多 DBMS 的处理过 程中,对于自连接的处理速度要比子查询快得多。 可以这样理解:子查询实际上是通过未知表进行查询后的条件判断,而自连接是通过已知的自身数据表 进行条件判断,因此在大部分 DBMS 中都对自连接处理进行了优化。
