MIN.Aggregate functions used as analytical functions offer the advantage of partitioning and ordering as well Įxamples:-1) select empno,ename,job,deptno,sal,round(avg(sal) over(),2) avg_sal,Ģ) select empno,ename,job,deptno,sal,round(avg(sal) over(partition by deptno),2) dept_avg_sal, Percent_rank() over(order by sal desc ) p_rank,Ĭume_dist() over(order by sal desc) cume_rankĢ) Aggregate functions:- Many of the aggregate function can be used as aĪnalytical function like SUM,AVG,COUNT,STDDEV,VARIANCE,MAX and Percent_rank() over(order by sal desc ) p_rankĬUME_DIST():-formula for cumulative_distribution is :-Ĭume_dist()=heighest rank of row/number of rows Percent_rank()=(rank-1)/(number of rows-1)Įxample:-select empno,ename,job,deptno,sal,rank() over(order by sal desc) rank, Percent_rank():- Formula for calculation of percent_rank() is :.
Select empno,ename,job,deptno,sal,ntile(4) over(order by sal desc ) nt Into the choosen number of segments then the percentile is displayed as Ntile():-ntile() roughly works by dividing the number of rows retrieved Select empno,ename,job,deptno,sal,rank() over(partition by job order by sal desc ) rank_num Select empno,ename,job,deptno,sal,rank() over(partition by deptno order by sal desc ) rank_numĢ) ranking accoring to their salary and partition of job wise Separate grouping of data and then perform a function from within thatĮxamples 1:- ranking according to salary and partition of deptno wise Y) Partitioning :-partitioning in analytical function allow us to Select empno,ename,job,nvl(sal,6000),rank() over(order by nvl(sal,6000) desc ) rank_num Note:- We can also use nvl function for trating nulls values Select empno,ename,job,sal,rank() over(order by sal desc nulls last) rank_num Select empno,ename,job,sal,rank() over(order by sal desc nulls first) rank_num Nulls and Analytical Function:-For treating nulls values we used NULLSįIRST and NULLS LAST clause in analytical clause and default value is Select empno,ename,job,sal,row_number() over(order by sal desc) row_num,ĭense_rank() over(order by sal desc) drank_num Number with handling problem of row tie in different ways,rank() skipĭense_rank() does not skip the next rank whereas give same rank of tie Row_number() vs rank() vs dense_rank() :- row_number() analyticalįunction generatr numbering on analytical clause but not handling row Ordering whereas row_number is a analytical function calculating Row_number() vs rownum :- rownum is a pseudo-column, calculating before Note:-we can use combination of ordering, partitioning and windowing. When we want values comparison of a column then only analytical is the way to do the same.Ī) row_number() b) rank() c) dense_rank() d) percent_rank() e) cume_dist() f) ntile()Ī) sum() b) avg() c) min() d) max() e) count() f) stddev()Ī) Ordering :-In this clause we use "order by column_name"ī) Partitioning :-In this clause we use "partition by column_name"Ĭ) Windowing :-In this clause we use "rows between x preceding and yįollowing" ,we can use "unbounded" and "current row" clause in place of When we want grouping data with non-grouping column then we use analytical functions. The frame_clause defines the frame of the current partition.Analytical Function:- Analytical functions provide simple solution to complex querying problem. The order_by_clause clause specifies the order of rows in each partition to which the NTH_VALUE() function is applied. If you skip it, the NTH_VALUE() function will treat the whole result set as a single partition.
The query_partition_clause clause is not mandatory. The query_partition_clause clause divides the rows into partitions to which the NTH_VALUE() function is applied. This determines whether NULL is included in or eliminated from the calculation. The NTH_VALUE() function will return NULL if the N th row does not exist. N must be a positive integer such as 1, 2, and 3. Specifies the N th row in the window frame defined by the frame_clause. Is any valid expression evaluated against the N th row of the window frame.
