以下是@Scott Langham用简单的NULL处理给出的答案:

SELECT
      o.OrderId,
      CASE WHEN (o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice OR o.SuggestedPrice IS NULL) 
         THEN o.NegotiatedPrice 
         ELSE o.SuggestedPrice
      END As MaxPrice
FROM Order o

在Presto你可以使用

SELECT array_max(ARRAY[o.NegotiatedPrice, o.SuggestedPrice])

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

这里有一个案例示例，应该处理null，并将与旧版本的MSSQL一起工作。这是基于一个流行例子中的内联函数:

case
  when a >= b then a
  else isnull(b,a)
end

你可以这样做:

select case when o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice 
then o.NegotiatedPrice
else o.SuggestedPrice
end

如果你使用的是SQL Server 2008(或更高版本)，那么这是更好的解决方案:

SELECT o.OrderId,
       (SELECT MAX(Price)
        FROM (VALUES (o.NegotiatedPrice),(o.SuggestedPrice)) AS AllPrices(Price))
FROM Order o

所有的信用和投票都应该去Sven对一个相关问题的答案，“多列的SQL MAX ?” 我说这是“最佳答案”，因为:

It doesn't require complicating your code with UNION's, PIVOT's, UNPIVOT's, UDF's, and crazy-long CASE statments. It isn't plagued with the problem of handling nulls, it handles them just fine. It's easy to swap out the "MAX" with "MIN", "AVG", or "SUM". You can use any aggregate function to find the aggregate over many different columns. You're not limited to the names I used (i.e. "AllPrices" and "Price"). You can pick your own names to make it easier to read and understand for the next guy. You can find multiple aggregates using SQL Server 2008's derived_tables like so: SELECT MAX(a), MAX(b) FROM (VALUES (1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6), (7, 8), (9, 10) ) AS MyTable(a, b)
