可以在一行中完成:

-- the following expression calculates ==> max(@val1, @val2)
SELECT 0.5 * ((@val1 + @val2) + ABS(@val1 - @val2)) 

编辑:如果处理的是非常大的数字，则必须将值变量转换为bigint，以避免整数溢出。

在Presto你可以使用

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

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

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[fnMax] (@p1 INT, @p2 INT)
RETURNS INT
AS BEGIN

    DECLARE @Result INT

    SET @p2 = COALESCE(@p2, @p1)

    SELECT
        @Result = (
                   SELECT
                    CASE WHEN @p1 > @p2 THEN @p1
                         ELSE @p2
                    END
                  )

    RETURN @Result

END

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

你可以这样做:

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