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?

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

其他回答

SELECT o.OrderID
CASE WHEN o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice THEN
 o.NegotiatedPrice
ELSE
 o.SuggestedPrice
END AS Price

扩展Xin的答案并假设比较值类型是INT,这种方法也适用:

SELECT IIF(ISNULL(@A, -2147483648) > ISNULL(@B, -2147483648), @A, @B)

这是一个完整的测试示例值:

DECLARE @A AS INT
DECLARE @B AS INT

SELECT  @A = 2, @B = 1
SELECT  IIF(ISNULL(@A, -2147483648) > ISNULL(@B, -2147483648), @A, @B)
-- 2

SELECT  @A = 2, @B = 3
SELECT  IIF(ISNULL(@A, -2147483648) > ISNULL(@B, -2147483648), @A, @B)
-- 3

SELECT  @A = 2, @B = NULL
SELECT  IIF(ISNULL(@A, -2147483648) > ISNULL(@B, -2147483648), @A, @B)
-- 2    

SELECT  @A = NULL, @B = 1
SELECT  IIF(ISNULL(@A, -2147483648) > ISNULL(@B, -2147483648), @A, @B)
-- 1

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)

对于SQL Server 2012:

SELECT 
    o.OrderId, 
    IIF( o.NegotiatedPrice >= o.SuggestedPrice,
         o.NegotiatedPrice, 
         ISNULL(o.SuggestedPrice, o.NegiatedPrice) 
    )
FROM 
    Order o

是的,有。

T-SQL (SQL Server 2022 (16.x))现在支持最大/最小函数:

MAX/MIN作为非聚合函数 现在Azure SQL数据库和SQL托管实例都支持这个功能。它将滚动到下一个版本的SQL Server。


逻辑函数- GREATEST (Transact-SQL) 此函数返回一个或多个表达式列表中的最大值。 最伟大的表达,…n)

在这种情况下:

SELECT o.OrderId, GREATEST(o.NegotiatedPrice, o.SuggestedPrice)
FROM [Order] o;
