工作学习 / IT技术讨论 / 闲来无事, 出道ORACLE SQL的题考考大家. 这是在下几个月前工作中遇到的问题, 看似简单, 其实不然. -contact(Contact); 2001-11-13 {429} (#260222@0)
Table T has a few columns. Column A in T is not unique. Write a SQL statement returns all the rows in T where column A value is non-unique, and group by A. Please note, you can write a complex SQL statement, but no functions, procedures, and triggers are allowed.

For instance, I have table T:

A B

1 B1
2 B2
3 B3
2 B4
3 B5
3 B6
4 B7

after running the SQL, the result is

A B

2 B2
2 B4
3 B3
3 B5
3 B6

Correction -contact(Contact); 2001-11-13 {200} (#260228@0)
"no functions, procedures, and triggers are allowed" should be "no user defined functions, procedures, and triggers are allowed". Built in functions like AVG, MAX, DECODE, COUNT etc. are allowed.
为什么只能用一句STATEMENT?用PROCEDURE是很好做的 -bigrice(大米); 2001-11-13 (#260233@0)

But since you used sub-query, you lose the benefits of index. -contact(Contact); 2001-11-13 (#260258@0)

DX, is that possible to get the data set without sub-query? That is beyond my ablity, please tell me. Thanks. -cloud2001(坐看云起); 2001-11-13 (#260268@0)

This one seems working:

select T2.A, T1.B from T T1, T T2
where T1.A = T2.A group by T2.A, T1.B having count(T2.A)>1

Graceful! -abba(Spitfire); 2001-11-14 {397} (#260691@0)
I tried this way this evening. But after several minutes I gave up. I find it difficult for me to get focused at home. Yeah, the performance could be bad when using sub-query, especially when the data volume is large.

By the way, I like to write join conditions in the JOIN clause, instead of WHERE. I feel that things are clearer in this way.

Thanks! I've certainly learnt something today.

select T2.A, T1.B from T T1, T T2
where T1.B = T2.B group by T2.A, T1.B having count(T2.A)>1

I changed 'where' , before the 'having' the result is same as the old one, but after 'having', the result is totally different. So what's the function of 'HAVING'? I think it just process the data before it, right?

Did you test the statement for so many rows?something wrong? -cloud2001(坐看云起之山尽水穷); 2001-11-14 {356} (#261113@0)
I tried a table with 33 rows, almost no difference(20 msec--subquery, 40 msec--your statement).
I tried a table with 480184 rows using the sub-query one, it took 35 sec to get back data without index, 23 sec to get back with index, but I tried the one you provided, I waited for at least half an hour, still no data come back, I have to kill the process.

Can you answer my question? -hongri(hongri); 2001-11-14 (#261165@0)

My answer are select * from T T1 where exists(select A from T where A=T1.A group by A having count(1)>1); or select * from T T1 where exists(select A from T group by A having count(1)>1 and A=T1.A); -cyt(会飞的鹿); 2001-11-14 {27} (#261114@0)

哥们，你试过吗？其实cyt的答案，我最喜欢，性能最好，两者并无不同。还可以：select * from T t1 where exists(select 1 from t t2 where t1.a=t2.a having count(0)>1)； -onewayticket(onewayticket); 2001-11-14 (#261589@0)

aabbcc hasn't got the point yet. But, -abba(Spitfire); 2001-11-14 {184} (#261707@0)
do you really think cyt's solution is better than that of #260300, in terms of performance? To my knowledge, join is much better than sub-query, especially when there is usable index.

I am pretty sure. 请看分析。 -onewayticket(onewayticket); 2001-11-14 {3083} (#261831@0)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛我在table t的a列上加了index t_i, 这样能看出#260246,#260300,#260764并没有用到index (note: 对小型table来说，性能并不一定好）

老兄是真正的DBA吧。我是做开发的，用了4，5年SQL，也搞过performance tuning，但没有系统研究过理论。今天借这个机会请教一下：怎样分析execution plan？有没有好的网站介绍一下？先行谢过！

不过，我的经验仍然顽固地告诉我：#260300会用到‘T_I'，并且join好于sub_query。我现在没条件，你能不能弄几万条记录试一下？（我的经验以前都挺管用啊！）

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛你可以用下面的sql生成几万条记录:
CREATE SEQUENCE sq1
INCREMENT BY 1
START WITH 1
MAXVALUE 1000
CYCLE
NOCACHE
ORDER;

CREATE SEQUENCE sq2
INCREMENT BY 1
START WITH 1
MAXVALUE 500
CYCLE
NOCACHE
ORDER;

declare
i INTEGER := NULL;
c varchar2(10);
begin
for i in 1..50000 loop
select 'B'||sq2.nextval into c from dual;
insert into t values(sq1.nextval,c);
end loop;
commit;
exception
when others then null;
end;

然后再分析:

我是用的cost based optimizer.
alter session set optimizer_mode=all_rows;
而且对table t 做了分析:
analyze table t estimate statistics;

结果仍是:

SQL> select t2.a, t1.b from t t1, t t2
2 where t1.a=t2.a group by t2.a, t1.b having count(t2.a)>1

1. 用explain plan 之前,必须生成plan_table, 用utlxplan.sql 生成. 在$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin下.
2. 选择cost-based or rule based (Oracle 推荐cost based). 可以在parameter file 或session 或instance级设: 如:
session 级:
alter session set optimizer_mode=all_rows;
3.可以从table plan_table看结果或用: set autotrace on explain 设(我用的这种方式)更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛My very first solution was same as cloud's. Because logically it is the clearest way to get the work done. My self join answer, in fact, was just a variation of cloud's answer by removing the sub-query. Among the answers with sub-query, apparently cyt's is the best.

I share with abba's view completely. The question I posted here was way much simplified from the real life problem I faced. In real life, I needed to join it with something like other 6 or 7 tables using, for instance, the value of B. Some of those tables are huge, and with different index etc. Using sub-query as part of the complex query risks the chance to be benefit from the index in tables, and may result horrible performance. The original SQL for the original problem was one page long. Therefor in the answer I posted here, the highest priority in my mind was removing any sub-queries, rather than the fastest performance of querying this single table. In this sense, abba is absolutely correct.

Thank you for your excellent execution plan, onewayticket! As you can tell I am not a dba, but I got your idea. I definitely learned something.

To answer hongri's question, you cannot change T1.a=T2.a to T1.b=T2.b. Your query looked like working but indeed it didn't because the original table happened to have the values in B column unique. Change your table by making B column to 'B1' for all the rows, your will find your query doesn't work.

It has been fun to share ideas with you folks. Let's keep going!更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

When I saw your question, I just want to answer you as soon as possible, yes, I admit at that time I did not even think about performance, so I am not a dba either. :) Although it seems a simple question, as you and abba said, it is more complicated in real life, but I really learn much from it. I really appreciate it. You make rolia IT more like a technical forum, which is the place I am looking for.
