TSQL - COUNT number of rows in a different state than current row - tsql

It's kind of hard to explain, but from this example it should be clear.
Table TABLE:
Name State Time
--------------------
A 1 1/4/2012
B 0 1/3/2012
C 0 1/2/2012
D 1 1/1/2012
Would like to
select * from TABLE where state=1 order by Time desc
plus an additional column 'Skipped' containing the number of rows after one where state=1 in state 0, in other words the output should look like this:
Name State Time Skipped
A 1 1/4/2012 2 -- 2 rows after A where State != 1
D 1 1/1/2012 0 -- 0 rows after D where State != 1
0 should also be reported in case of 2 consecutive rows are in state = 1, i.e. there is nothing between these rows in a state other than 1.
It seems like CTE are must here, but can't figure out how to count rows where state != 1.
Any help will be appreciated.
(MS Sql Server 2008)

I've used a CTE to establish RowNo, so that you're not dependent on consecutive dates:
WITH CTE_Rows as
(
select name,state,time,
rowno = ROW_NUMBER() over (order by [time])
from MyTable
)
select name,state,time,
gap = isnull(r.rowno - x.rowno - 1,0)
from
CTE_Rows r
outer apply (
select top 1 rowno
from CTE_Rows sub
where sub.rowno < r.rowno and sub.state = 1
order by sub.rowno desc) x
where r.state = 1
If you just want to do it by date, then its simpler - just need an outer apply:
select name,state,r.time,
gap = convert(int,isnull(r.time - x.time - 1,0))
from
MyTable r
outer apply (
select top 1 time
from MyTable sub
where sub.time < r.time and sub.state = 1
order by sub.time desc) x
where r.state = 1
FYI the test data is used was created as follows:
create table MyTable
(Name char(1), [state] tinyint, [Time] datetime)
insert MyTable
values
('E',1,'2012-01-05'),
('A',1,'2012-01-04'),
('B',0,'2012-01-03'),
('C',0,'2012-01-02'),
('D',1,'2012-01-01')

Okay, here you go (it gets a little messy):
SELECT U.CurrentTime,
(SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM StateTable AS T3
WHERE T3.State=0
AND T3.Time BETWEEN U.LastTime AND U.CurrentTime) AS Skipped
FROM (SELECT T1.Time AS CurrentTime,
(SELECT TOP 1 T2.Time
FROM StateTable AS T2
WHERE T2.Time < T1.Time AND T2.State=1
ORDER BY T2.Time DESC) AS LastTime
FROM StateTable AS T1 WHERE T1.State = 1) AS U

Postgresql running sum of previous groups?

Given the following data:
sequence | amount
1 100000
1 20000
2 10000
2 10000
I'd like to write a sql query that gives me the sum of the current sequence, plus the sum of the previous sequence. Like so:
sequence | current | previous
1 120000 0
2 20000 120000
I know the solution likely involves windowing functions but I'm not too sure how to implement it without subqueries.
SQL Fiddle
select
seq,
amount,
lag(amount::int, 1, 0) over(order by seq) as previous
from (
select seq, sum(amount) as amount
from sa
group by seq
) s
order by seq
If your sequence is "sequencial" without holes you can simply do:
SELECT t1.sequence,
SUM(t1.amount),
(SELECT SUM(t2.amount) from mytable t2 WHERE t2.sequence = t1.sequence - 1)
FROM mytable t1
GROUP BY t1.sequence
ORDER BY t1.sequence
Otherwise, instead of t2.sequence = t1.sequence - 1 you could do:
SELECT t1.sequence,
SUM(t1.amount),
(SELECT SUM(t2.amount)
from mytable t2
WHERE t2.sequence = (SELECT MAX(t3.sequence)
FROM mytable t3
WHERE t3.sequence < t1.sequence))
FROM mytable t1
GROUP BY t1.sequence
ORDER BY t1.sequence;
You can see both approaches in this fiddle

Check for equal amounts of negative numbers as positive numbers

I have a table with two columns: intGroupID, decAmount
I want to have a query that can basically return the intGroupID as a result if for every positive(+) decAmount, there is an equal and opposite negative(-) decAmount.
So a table of (id=1,amount=1.0),(1,2.0),(1,-1.0),(1,-2.0) would return back the intGroupID of 1, because for each positive number there exists a negative number to match.
What I know so far is that there must be an equal number of decAmounts (so I enforce a count(*) % 2 = 0) and the sum of all rows must = 0.0. However, some cases that get by that logic are:
ID | Amount
1 | 1.0
1 | -1.0
1 | 2.0
1 | -2.0
1 | 3.0
1 | 2.0
1 | -4.0
1 | -1.0
This has a sum of 0.0 and has an even number of rows, but there is not a 1-for-1 relationship of positives to negatives. I need a query that can basically tell me if there is a negative amount for each positive amount, without reusing any of the rows.
I tried counting the distinct absolute values of the numbers and enforcing that it is less than the count of all rows, but it's not catching everything.
The code I have so far:
DECLARE #tblTest TABLE(
intGroupID INT
,decAmount DECIMAL(19,2)
);
INSERT INTO #tblTest (intGroupID ,decAmount)
VALUES (1,-1.0),(1,1.0),(1,2.0),(1,-2.0),(1,3.0),(1,2.0),(1,-4.0),(1,-1.0);
DECLARE #intABSCount INT = 0
,#intFullCount INT = 0;
SELECT #intFullCount = COUNT(*) FROM #tblTest;
SELECT #intABSCount = COUNT(*) FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT ABS(decAmount) AS absCount FROM #tblTest GROUP BY ABS(decAmount)
) AS absCount
SELECT t1.intGroupID
FROM #tblTest AS t1
/* Make Sure Even Number Of Rows */
INNER JOIN
(SELECT COUNT(*) AS intCount FROM #tblTest
)
AS t2 ON t2.intCount % 2 = 0
/* Make Sure Sum = 0.0 */
INNER JOIN
(SELECT SUM(decAmount) AS decSum FROM #tblTest)
AS t3 ON decSum = 0.0
/* Make Sure Count of Absolute Values < Count of Values */
WHERE
#intABSCount < #intFullCount
GROUP BY t1.intGroupID
I think there is probably a better way to check this table, possibly by finding pairs and removing them from the table and seeing if there's anything left in the table once there are no more positive/negative matches, but I'd rather not have to use recursion/cursors.
Create TABLE #tblTest (
intA INT
,decA DECIMAL(19,2)
);
INSERT INTO #tblTest (intA,decA)
VALUES (1,-1.0),(1,1.0),(1,2.0),(1,-2.0),(1,3.0),(1,2.0),(1,-4.0),(1,-1.0), (5,-5.0),(5,5.0) ;
SELECT * FROM #tblTest;
SELECT
intA
, MIN(Result) as IsBalanced
FROM
(
SELECT intA, X,Result =
CASE
WHEN count(*)%2 = 0 THEN 1
ELSE 0
END
FROM
(
---- Start thinking here --- inside-out
SELECT
intA
, x =
CASE
WHEN decA < 0 THEN
-1 * decA
ELSE
decA
END
FROM #tblTest
) t1
Group by intA, X
)t2
GROUP BY intA
Not tested but I think you can get the idea
This returns the id that do not conform
The not is easier to test / debug
select pos.*, neg.*
from
( select id, amount, count(*) as ccount
from tbl
where amount > 0
group by id, amount ) pos
full outer join
( select id, amount, count(*) as ccount
from tbl
where amount < 0
group by id, amount ) neg
on pos.id = neg.id
and pos.amount = -neg.amount
and pos.ccount = neg.ccount
where pos.id is null
or neg.id is null
I think this will return a list of id that do conform
select distinct(id) from tbl
except
select distinct(isnull(pos.id, neg.id))
from
( select id, amount, count(*) as ccount
from tbl
where amount > 0
group by id, amount ) pos
full outer join
( select id, amount, count(*) as ccount
from tbl
where amount < 0
group by id, amount ) neg
on pos.id = neg.id
and pos.amount = -neg.amount
and pos.ccount = neg.ccount
where pos.id is null
or neg.id is null
Boy, I found a simpler way to do this than my previous answers. I hope all my crazy edits are saved for posterity.
This works by grouping all numbers for an id by their absolute value (1, -1 grouped by 1).
The sum of the group determines if there are an equal number of pairs. If it is 0 then it is equal, any other value for the sum means there is an imbalance.
The detection of evenness by the COUNT aggregate is only necessary to detect an even number of zeros. I assumed that 0's could exist and they should occur an even number of times. Remove it if this isn't a concern, as 0 will always pass the first test.
I rewrote the query a bunch of different ways to get the best execution plan. The final result below only has one big heap sort which was unavoidable given the lack of an index.
Query
WITH tt AS (
SELECT intGroupID,
CASE WHEN SUM(decAmount) > 0 OR COUNT(*) % 2 = 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END unequal
FROM #tblTest
GROUP BY intGroupID, ABS(decAmount)
)
SELECT tt.intGroupID,
CASE WHEN SUM(unequal) != 0 THEN 'not equal' ELSE 'equals' END [pair]
FROM tt
GROUP BY intGroupID;
Tested Values
(1,-1.0),(1,1.0),(1,2),(1,-2), -- should work
(2,-1.0),(2,1.0),(2,2),(2,2), -- fail, two positive twos
(3,1.0),(3,1.0),(3,-1.0), -- fail two 1's , one -1
(4,1),(4,2),(4,-.5),(4,-2.5), -- fail: adds up the same sum, but different values
(5,1),(5,-1),(5,0),(5,0), -- work, test zeros
(6,1),(6,-1),(6,0), -- fail, test zeros
(7,1),(7,-1),(7,-1),(7,1),(7,1) -- fail, 3 x 1
Results
A pairs
_ _____
1 equal
2 not equal
3 not equal
4 not equal
5 equal
6 not equal
7 not equal
The following should return "disbalanced" groups:
;with pos as (
select intGroupID, ABS(decAmount) m
from TableName
where decAmount > 0
), neg as (
select intGroupID, ABS(decAmount) m
from TableName
where decAmount < 0
)
select distinct IsNull(p.intGroupID, n.intGroupID) as intGroupID
from pos p
full join neg n on n.id = p.id and abs(n.m - p.m) < 1e-8
where p.m is NULL or n.m is NULL
to get unpaired elements, select satement can be changed to following:
select IsNull(p.intGroupID, n.intGroupID) as intGroupID, IsNull(p.m, -n.m) as decAmount
from pos p
full join neg n on n.id = p.id and abs(n.m - p.m) < 1e-8
where p.m is NULL or n.m is NULL
Does this help?

select mat.groupid, min(case when pos.PositiveCount = neg.NegativeCount then 1 else 0 end) as 'Match'
from #matches mat
LEFT JOIN (select groupid, SUM(1) as 'PositiveCount', Value
from #matches where value > 0 group by groupid, value) pos

group by mat.groupid
-- If at least one pair within a group don't match, reject
having min(case when pos.PositiveCount = neg.NegativeCount then 1 else 0 end) = 1
You can compare your values this way:
declare #t table(id int, amount decimal(4,1))
insert #t values(1,1.0),(1,-1.0),(1,2.0),(1,-2.0),(1,3.0),(1,2.0),(1,-4.0),(1,-1.0),(2,-1.0),(2,1.0)
;with a as
(
select count(*) cnt, id, amount
from #t
group by id, amount
)
select id from #t
except
select b.id from a
full join a b
on a.cnt = b.cnt and a.amount = -b.amount
where a.id is null
For some reason i can't write comments, however Daniels comment is not correct, and my solution does accept (6,1),(6,-1),(6,0) which can be correct. 0 is not specified in the question and since it is a 0 value it can be handled eather way. My answer does NOT accept (3,1.0),(3,1.0),(3,-1.0)
To Blam: No I am not missing
or b.id is null
My solution is like yours, but not exactly identical

How to match records for two different groups?

I have one main table called Event_log which contains all of the records that I need for this query. Within this table there is one column that I'm calling "Grp". To simplify things, assume that there are only two possible values for this Grp: A and B. So now we have one table, Event_log, with one column "Grp" and one more column called "Actual Date". Lastly I want to add one more Flag column to this table, which works as follows.
First, I order all of the records in descending order by date as demonstrated below. Then, I want to flag each Group "A" row with a 1 or a 0. For all "A" rows, if the previous record (earlier in date) = "B" row then I want to flag 1. Otherwise flag a 0. So this initial table looks like this before setting this flag:
Actual Date Grp Flag
1-29-13 A
12-27-12 B
12-26-12 B
12-23-12 A
12-22-12 A
But after these calculations are done, it should look like this:
Actual Date Grp Flag
1-29-13 A 1
12-27-12 B NULL
12-26-12 B NULL
12-23-12 A 0
12-22-12 A 0
How can I do this? This is simpler to describe than it is to query!
You can use something like:
select el.ActualDate
, el.Grp
, Flag = case
when el.grp = 'B' then null
when prev.grp = 'B' then 1
else 0
end
from Event_log el
outer apply
(
select top 1 prev.grp
from Event_log prev
where el.ActualDate > prev.ActualDate
order by prev.ActualDate desc
) prev
order by el.ActualDate desc
SQL Fiddle with demo.
Try this
;with cte as
(
SELECT CAST('01-29-13' As DateTime) ActualDate,'A' Grp
UNION ALL SELECT '12-27-12','B'
UNION ALL SELECT '12-26-12','B'
UNION ALL SELECT '12-23-12','A'
UNION ALL SELECT '12-22-12','A'
)
, CTE2 as
(
SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (order by actualdate desc) rn
FROM cte
)
SELECT a.*,
case
when A.Grp = 'A' THEN
CASE WHEN b.Grp = 'B' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
ELSE NULL
END Flag
from cte2 a
LEFT OUTER JOIN CTE2 b on a.rn + 1 = b.rn

Summing From Consecutive Rows

Assume we have a table and we want to do a sum of the Expend column so that the summation only adds up values of the same Week_Name.
SN Week_Name Exp Sum
-- --------- --- ---
1 Week 1 10 0
2 Week 1 20 0
3 Week 1 30 60
4 Week 2 40 0
5 Week 2 50 90
6 Week 3 10 0
I will assume we will need to `Order By' Week_Name, then compare the previous Week_Name(previous row) with the current row Week_name(Current row).
If both are the same, put zero in the SUM column.
If not the same, add all expenditure, where Week_Name = Week_Name(Previous row) and place in the Sum column. The final output should look like the table above.
Any help on how to achieve this in T-SQL is highly appreciated.
Okay, I was eventually able to resolve this issue, praise Jesus! If you want the exact table I gave above, you can use GilM's response below, it is perfect. If you want your table to have running Cumulatives, i.e. Rows 3 shoud have 60, Row 5, should have 150, Row 6 160 etc. Then, you can use my code below:
USE CAPdb
IF OBJECT_ID ('dbo.[tablebp]') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [tablebp]
GO
CREATE TABLE [tablebp] (
tablebpcCol1 int PRIMARY KEY
,tabledatekey datetime
,tableweekname varchar(50)
,expenditure1 numeric
,expenditure_Cummulative numeric
)
INSERT INTO [tablebp](tablebpcCol1,tabledatekey,tableweekname,expenditure1,expenditure_Cummulative)
SELECT b.s_tablekey,d.PK_Date,d.Week_Name,
SUM(b.s_expenditure1) AS s_expenditure1,
SUM(b.s_expenditure1) + COALESCE((SELECT SUM(s_expenditure1)
FROM source_table bs JOIN dbo.Time dd ON bs.[DATE Key] = dd.[PK_Date]
WHERE dd.PK_Date < d.PK_Date),0)
FROM source_table b
INNER JOIN dbo.Time d ON b.[Date key] = d.PK_Date
GROUP BY d.[PK_Date],d.Week_Name,b.s_tablekey,b.s_expenditure1
ORDER BY d.[PK_Date]
;WITH CTE AS (
SELECT tableweekname
,Max(expenditure_Cummulative) AS Week_expenditure_Cummulative
,MAX(tablebpcCol1) AS MaxSN
FROM [tablebp]
GROUP BY tableweekname
)
SELECT [tablebp].*
,CASE WHEN [tablebp].tablebpcCol1 = CTE.MaxSN THEN Week_expenditure_Cummulative
ELSE 0 END AS [RunWeeklySum]
FROM [tablebp]
JOIN CTE on CTE.tableweekname = [tablebp].tableweekname
I'm not sure why your SN=6 line is 0 rather than 10. Do you really not want the sum for the last Week? If having the last week total is okay, then you might want something like:
;WITH CTE AS (
SELECT Week_Name,SUM([Expend.]) as SumExpend
,MAX(SN) AS MaxSN
FROM T
GROUP BY Week_Name
)
SELECT T.*,CASE WHEN T.SN = CTE.MaxSN THEN SumExpend
ELSE 0 END AS [Sum]
FROM T
JOIN CTE on CTE.Week_Name = T.Week_Name
Based on the requst in the comment wanting a running total in SUM you could try this:
;WITH CTE AS (
SELECT Week_Name, MAX(SN) AS MaxSN
FROM T
GROUP BY Week_Name
)
SELECT T.SN, T.Week_Name,T.Exp,
CASE WHEN T.SN = CTE.MaxSN THEN
(SELECT SUM(EXP) FROM T T2
WHERE T2.SN <= T.SN) ELSE 0 END AS [SUM]
FROM T
JOIN CTE ON CTE.Week_Name = T.Week_Name
ORDER BY SN

Dealing with periods and dates without using cursors

I would like to solve this issue avoiding to use cursors (FETCH).
Here comes the problem...
1st Table/quantity
------------------
periodid periodstart periodend quantity
1 2010/10/01 2010/10/15 5
2st Table/sold items
-----------------------
periodid periodstart periodend solditems
14343 2010/10/05 2010/10/06 2
Now I would like to get the following view or just query result
Table Table/stock
-----------------------
periodstart periodend itemsinstock
2010/10/01 2010/10/04 5
2010/10/05 2010/10/06 3
2010/10/07 2010/10/15 5
It seems impossible to solve this problem without using cursors, or without using single dates instead of periods.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

Hopefully a little easier to read than Martin's. I used different tables and sample data, hopefully extrapolating the right info:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Quantity](
[PeriodStart] [date] NOT NULL,
[PeriodEnd] [date] NOT NULL,
[Quantity] [int] NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SoldItems](
[PeriodStart] [date] NOT NULL,
[PeriodEnd] [date] NOT NULL,
[SoldItems] [int] NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
INSERT INTO Quantity (PeriodStart,PeriodEnd,Quantity)
SELECT '20100101','20100115',5
INSERT INTO SoldItems (PeriodStart,PeriodEnd,SoldItems)
SELECT '20100105','20100107',2 union all
SELECT '20100106','20100108',1
The actual query is now:
;WITH Dates as (
select PeriodStart as DateVal from SoldItems union select PeriodEnd from SoldItems union select PeriodStart from Quantity union select PeriodEnd from Quantity
), Periods as (
select d1.DateVal as StartDate, d2.DateVal as EndDate
from Dates d1 inner join Dates d2 on d1.DateVal < d2.DateVal left join Dates d3 on d1.DateVal < d3.DateVal and d3.DateVal < d2.DateVal where d3.DateVal is null
), QuantitiesSold as (
select StartDate,EndDate,COALESCE(SUM(si.SoldItems),0) as Quantity
from Periods p left join SoldItems si on p.StartDate < si.PeriodEnd and si.PeriodStart < p.EndDate
group by StartDate,EndDate
)
select StartDate,EndDate,q.Quantity - qs.Quantity
from QuantitiesSold qs inner join Quantity q on qs.StartDate < q.PeriodEnd and q.PeriodStart < qs.EndDate
And the result is:
StartDate EndDate (No column name)
2010-01-01 2010-01-05 5
2010-01-05 2010-01-06 3
2010-01-06 2010-01-07 2
2010-01-07 2010-01-08 4
2010-01-08 2010-01-15 5
Explanation: I'm using three Common Table Expressions. The first (Dates) is gathering all of the dates that we're talking about, from the two tables involved. The second (Periods) selects consecutive values from the Dates CTE. And the third (QuantitiesSold) then finds items in the SoldItems table that overlap these periods, and adds their totals together. All that remains in the outer select is to subtract these quantities from the total quantity stored in the Quantity Table
John, what you could do is a WHILE loop. Declare and initialise 2 variables before your loop, one being the start date and the other being end date. Your loop would then look like this:
WHILE(#StartEnd <= #EndDate)
BEGIN
--processing goes here
SET #StartEnd = #StartEnd + 1
END
You would need to store your period definitions in another table, so you could retrieve those and output rows when required to a temporary table.
Let me know if you need any more detailed examples, or if I've got the wrong end of the stick!
Damien,
I am trying to fully understand your solution and test it on a large scale of data, but I receive following errors for your code.

Damien,
