Aggregate Functions

Aggregate functions perform calculations on groups of rows and return a single value. Some common aggregate functions include: 1. SUM(), which returns the total of a numeric column. 2. AVG(), which returns the average of a numeric column. 3. MAX(), which returns the highest value in a column. 4. MIN(), which returns the lowest value in a column. 5. COUNT(), which returns the number of rows that match a condition. COUNT(*) returns the number of rows in a table regardless of values.

AGGREGATE FUNCTIONS

Prepared by Ajitha Kumari, M.Tech (PGT )SJCS,KK


AGGREGATE FUNCTIONS
• Aggregate Functions OR Group functions work upon group
of rows ,rather than on single rows.
• Or
• An aggregate function performs a calculation on multiple
values and return a single value
AGGREGATE FUNCTIONS
1. sum()
2. Avg()
3. Max()
4. Min()
5. Count()
6. Count(*)
STUDENT TABLE
SUM()
• This function returns the sum of values in a
given column or expression
Syntax:
Select sum(distinct /All ) column
name> from table name;
SUM()
• Example
• SUM()
• mysql> select sum(fees) from student;
• +-----------+
• | sum(fees) |
• +-----------+
• | 62400 |
• +-----------+
• 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
AVG()
• This function computes the average of the given data
Syntax:
select avg(distinct/ all /column name from table name;
AVG()
• AVG()
• mysql> select avg(fees) from student;
• +-----------+
• | avg(fees) |
• +-----------+
• | 6240.0000 |
• +-----------+
• 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
MAX()
• This function refers the maximum wise from a given column or expression
• Syntax:
• Select max(distinct/ All column name from table name;
MAX()
• mysql> select max(fees) from student;
• +-----------+
• | max(fees) |
• +-----------+
• | 9000 |
• +-----------+
• 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
MIN()
• Min function returns the minimum value of an expression

• Syntax:
• Select min(aggregate expression) from table name
MIN()
• MIN()
•
• mysql> select min(fees) from student;
• +-----------+
• | min(fees) |
• +-----------+
• | 3200 |
• +-----------+
• 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
COUNT AND COUNT(*)
• Count function returns the count of an expression
• Syntax:
• Select count (aggregate_expression) from tables

• This is the column or expression whose non null values will be counted.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COUNT AND COUNT (*)
• COUNT(expression)
• The COUNT(expression) returns the number of rows that do not contain NULL
values as the result of the expression.

• COUNT(DISTINCT expression)
• The COUNT(DISTINCT expression) returns the number of distinct rows that do
not contain NULL values as the result of the expression.
COUNT(*)
• mysql> select count(*) from student;
• +----------+
• | count(*) |
• +----------+
• | 11 |
• +----------+
• 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
COUNT(FIELD NAME)
• mysql> select count(stid) from student;
• +-------------+
• | count(stid) |
• +-------------+
• | 10 |
• +-------------+
• 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
SELECT DISTINCT column1, column2,.....columnN FROM table_name WHERE [condition]
SELECT DISTINCT column1, column2,.....columnN FROM table_name WHERE [condition]
SELECT DISTINCT column1, column2,.....columnN FROM table_name WHERE [condition]

DISTINCT
• The SQL DISTINCT keyword is used in conjunction with the SELECT statement
to eliminate all the duplicate records and fetching only unique records.
Syntax:
SELECT DISTINCT column1, column2,.....columnN
FROM table_name
WHERE [condition]
DISTINCT
• mysql> select distinct(fees) from student;
• +------+
• | fees |
• +------+
