题目:
Write a SQL query to delete all duplicate email entries in a table named Person
, keeping only unique emails based on its smallest Id.
+----+------------------+ | Id | Email | +----+------------------+ | 1 | john@example.com | | 2 | bob@example.com | | 3 | john@example.com | +----+------------------+ Id is the primary key column for this table.
For example, after running your query, the above Person
table should have the following rows:
+----+------------------+ | Id | Email | +----+------------------+ | 1 | john@example.com | | 2 | bob@example.com | +----+------------------+思路:
1. 将Person引申为两个表,方便做比较;
2. 通过对比Email是否相同两筛选;
3. 当Email相同时,删除Id较大者。
delete p1 from person p1,person p2 where p1.email = p2.email and p1.id>p2.id;
