我想写一个这样的查询:

SELECT o.OrderId, MAX(o.NegotiatedPrice, o.SuggestedPrice)
FROM Order o

但这不是MAX函数的工作原理,对吧?它是一个聚合函数,因此它需要一个参数,然后返回所有行的MAX。

有人知道我的方法吗?

子查询可以从Outer查询访问列,因此可以使用这种方法跨列使用MAX等聚合。(不过,当涉及到大量列时可能更有用)

;WITH [Order] AS
(
SELECT 1 AS OrderId, 100 AS NegotiatedPrice, 110 AS SuggestedPrice UNION ALL
SELECT 2 AS OrderId, 1000 AS NegotiatedPrice, 50 AS SuggestedPrice
)
SELECT
       o.OrderId, 
       (SELECT MAX(price)FROM 
           (SELECT o.NegotiatedPrice AS price 
            UNION ALL SELECT o.SuggestedPrice) d) 
        AS MaxPrice 
FROM  [Order]  o

最简单的形式是……

CREATE FUNCTION fnGreatestInt (@Int1 int, @Int2 int )
RETURNS int
AS
BEGIN

    IF @Int1 >= ISNULL(@Int2,@Int1)
        RETURN @Int1
    ELSE
        RETURN @Int2

    RETURN NULL --Never Hit

END

我可能不会这样做,因为它比前面提到的CASE结构效率更低——除非您为两个查询都有覆盖索引。不管怎样,对于类似的问题,这都是一个有用的技巧:

SELECT OrderId, MAX(Price) as Price FROM (
   SELECT o.OrderId, o.NegotiatedPrice as Price FROM Order o
   UNION ALL
   SELECT o.OrderId, o.SuggestedPrice as Price FROM Order o
) as A
GROUP BY OrderId

在MemSQL中执行以下操作:

-- DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS InlineMax;
DELIMITER //
CREATE FUNCTION InlineMax(val1 INT, val2 INT) RETURNS INT AS
DECLARE
  val3 INT = 0;
BEGIN
 IF val1 > val2 THEN
   RETURN val1;
 ELSE
   RETURN val2;
 END IF; 
END //
DELIMITER ;

SELECT InlineMax(1,2) as test;

我不这么想。我那天想要这个。我最接近的说法是:

SELECT
  o.OrderId,
  CASE WHEN o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice THEN o.NegotiatedPrice 
     ELSE o.SuggestedPrice
  END
FROM Order o

试试这个。它可以处理2个以上的值

SELECT Max(v) FROM (VALUES (1), (2), (3)) AS value(v)
