I have a table customer. Contains cus_info as 'ceg_cus_hongkong_21032015_HHMISS'.
I need only the country name from the following mentioned string that is hongkong. And this will be generic for all data provided in cus_info column.
Please help me out how can it be possible using substr?
select
substr(cus_info,
instr(cus_info ,'_', 1, 2),
(
instr(cus_info ,'_', 1, 3) -- position of 3rd _
-
instr('cus_info ,'_', 1, 2) -- position of 2nd _
)
)
from customer

I have a string data like 'wordword (2018)', want to extract those data with pattern (yyyy). have tried with '%/([0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]/)%' but doesn't work
Building on HABO's comment, you can use something like:
DECLARE #Pattern VARCHAR(50) = '%([0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9])%'
SELECT A.value, yyyy = SUBSTRING(A.value, NULLIF(PATINDEX(#pattern, A.Value), 0) + 1, 4)
FROM (
VALUES
('wordword (2018)'),
('Nothing here'),
('this (2010) and that (2020)')
) A(value)
SQL Server has a very limited pattern matching support, so I converted your regex to the closest thing that SQL Server supports. The NULLIF() in the above converts a not-found index of zero to a null, which propagates to the result.
Did you try CHARINDEX?
SUBSTRING(#str,
CHARINDEX(‘[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]’,#str),4)
I Have: AAAA/DATA1/Data2;xyx;pqr
this data
I want only:DATA1 And Data2
If this is for a specific row, maybe use SUBSTR? Something like
SELECT
SUBSTR(column, 6, 5) AS col1
, SUBSTR(column, 13, 5) AS col2
FROM table
Here is something else you can do.. Although it gets pretty complicated, and this isn't the exact answer you are looking for but it will get you started. Hope this helps:
WITH test AS (
SELECT characters
FROM ( VALUES
( 'AAAA/DATA1/Data2;xyx;pqr'
) )
AS testing(characters)
)
SELECT
SUBSTR(characters, 1, LOCATE('/', characters) - 1) AS FIRST_PART
, SUBSTR(characters, LOCATE('/', characters) + 1) AS SECOND_PART
, SUBSTR(characters, LOCATE('/', characters, LOCATE('/', characters) + 1) + 1)
AS THIRD_PART
FROM test
;
DB2 does not have a single function for this, unfortunately. Check out this answer here: How to split a string value based on a delimiter in DB2
I've a string like 'intercompany creditors {DEMO[[1]]}'. I want to extract only the numbers from the string, in example just '1'.
How to do this in Invantive SQL?
You should be able to do so with substr (get some piece of text from specific positions in the text) and instr (get the position from a specific piece of text inside some other text):
select substr
( d
, instr(d, '[[') + 2
, instr(d, ']]') - instr(d, '[[') - 2
)
from ( select 'intercompany creditors {DEMO[[1]]}' d
from dual#DataDictionary
) x
I have a column in my table having values of format:
COURSE_214/MODULE_5825/SUBMODULE_123/..../GOAL_124/ACTIVITY_125.
I need value for goal i.e 124 from goal_124. I am planning to use 'regexp_split_to_array' but don't know how to use elements from array.
I am using postgres 9.2.
You can use split_part like so:
select split_part(split_part('COURSE_214/MODULE_5825/SUBMODULE_123/..../GOAL_124/ACTIVITY_125', '/GOAL_', 2), '/', 1)
i.e.
select split_part(split_part(fieldname, '/GOAL_', 2), '/', 1)
Result:
124
Using json_object():
select json_object(string_to_array(translate(params, '_', '/'), '/'))
from test
json_object
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
{"COURSE" : "214", "MODULE" : "5825", "SUBMODULE" : "123", "GOAL" : "124", "ACTIVITY" : "125"}
(1 row)
select json_object(string_to_array(translate(params, '_', '/'), '/'))->>'GOAL' as goal
from test
goal
------
124
(1 row)
The column has a format suitable for json. I would suggest to change the type of the column to jsonb. The first query may be used as a converter.
After the conversion you would access the parameters in an easy way, e.g.:
select *
from test
where params->>'COURSE' = '214'
and (params->>'GOAL')::int > 120;
Simple select of all GOAL_ parameters (if there are more than one)
select ltrim(elem, 'GOAL_')
from (
select unnest(string_to_array(params, '/')) elem
from test
) sub
where elem like 'GOAL_%'
You may try using regular expressions, getting the string between slashes
select substring(your_column from '^.*/(.*)/.*$') from your_table
If you expect to find in that part the GOAL value, use
select substring(your_column from '/GOAL_(.*)/') from your_table
I have an Alphanumeric column in my db table. For my filter, I was using between to get the result filter value. Everything is okay. But, In some cases it misses some of the data's from filtering. Here are my samples,
Sample data
ACQPO14
002421
ACQPO8
ACQPO14
ACQPO19
DUMMY0001
Sql Query
SELECT po.No,
po.PoS
FROM PoDetails pod
INNER JOIN Pors po ON po.Id=PoD.PoId
WHERE po.No BETWEEN 'ACQPO1' AND 'ACQPO20'
For the above sample. the query returns only ACQPO14 and ACQPO19 NOT ACQPO8.
Any help to this issue will be appreciated.
Thanks
It makes sense as it is just text.
1 comes before 8 so, ordering in text (left to right) the db will disregard the last digit of ACQPO14 to compare it against ACQPO8. So ACQPO1 (4 removed) comes before ACQPO8 and ACQPO2 (0 removed) comes before ACQPO8 as well. So it gets filtered out by the between.
The only way for you to fix this is to parse the column by splitting it. EG: If ACQPO is a fixed-length prefix you can use some DBMS function (you haven't specified any) to trim that part and turn into a numeric format the rest. Then compare/filter by that numeric remainder.
This is how you would do this in Oracle
SELECT po.No, po.PoS
FROM PoDetails pod
INNER JOIN Pors po ON po.Id=PoD.PoId
WHERE SUBSTR(po.No, 1, 5) = 'ACPQO'
AND TO_NUMBER(SUBSTR(po.No, 6, 2)) >= 1
AND TO_NUMBER(SUBSTR(po.No, 6, 2)) <= 20;
First SUBSTR() is used to match the textual part of the value. Then the numeric part of the values is parsed into a number using TO_NUMBER() and made available for numeric comparison between 1 and 20. (Other databases would also have similar functions to do the same.)
If ACQPO is fixed then try below in SQL Server
SELECT po.No, po.PoS
FROM PoDetails pod
INNER JOIN Pors po ON po.Id=PoD.PoId
WHERE left(po.No,5) and
cast(substring(po.No,6,len(po.No)) as int)
BETWEEN cast(substring('ACQPO1',6,len(po.No)) as int) AND cast(substring('ACQPO20',6,len(po.No)) as int)
SELECT substring(data,6,len(data)),* FROM #Temp Where
left(data,5) ='ACQPO' And
cast(substring(data,6,len(data)) as int)
BETWEEN cast(substring('ACQPO1',6,len(data)) as int) AND cast(substring('ACQPO20',6,len(data)) as int)
FOR MYSQL:-
SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE
SUBSTR(seq_num, 1,3) = 'ABC' /* verifying prefix code */
AND
REPLACE(seq_num, 'ABC', '') >= 61440
AND
REPLACE(seq_num, 'ABC', '') <= 61807
OR
SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE
SUBSTR(seq_num, 1,3) = 'ABC' /* verifying prefix code */
AND
substr(seq_num, 4, length(seq_num)) >= 61440
AND
SUBSTR(seq_num, 4, LENGTH(seq_num)) <= 61807
works for (like) :
ABC61447,
ABC61448,
ABC61545,
...,
...,
ABC61807
Just use range 10 to 20 and it works!
SELECT po.No,
po.PoS
FROM PoDetails pod
INNER JOIN Pors po ON po.Id=PoD.PoId
WHERE po.No BETWEEN 'ACQPO10' AND 'ACQPO20'
