Sample Solution:
SQL Code:
-- Selecting match_no and country_name from match_details and soccer_country
SELECT match_details.match_no, soccer_country.country_name
-- From clause with JOINs between match_mast, match_details, and soccer_country
FROM match_mast
JOIN match_details ON match_mast.match_no = match_details.match_no
JOIN soccer_country ON match_details.team_id = soccer_country.country_id
-- Where clause to filter results for matches with stop1_sec equal to 0
WHERE stop1_sec = 0;
Sample Output:
match_no | country_name
----------+--------------
4 | England
4 | Russia
(2 rows)
Code Explanation:
The given query in SQL that selects the match number and the name of the country associated with the team playing in that match from the tables match_mast, match_details, and soccer_country.
The JOIN clause is used to joins the tables using the match_no and team_id columns, which are primary keys in the match_mast and soccer_country tables respectively, and foreign keys in the match_details table.
The WHERE clause filters the results to only show matches where the stop1_sec column in the match_details table is equal to 0.
Alternative Solutions:
Using Subquery in the WHERE Clause:
-- Selecting match_no and country_name from match_mast and soccer_country
SELECT m.match_no, sc.country_name
-- From clause with JOINs between match_mast, match_details, and soccer_country
FROM match_mast m
JOIN match_details md ON m.match_no = md.match_no
JOIN soccer_country sc ON md.team_id = sc.country_id
-- Where clause to filter results for matches where match_no is in the subquery result
WHERE m.match_no IN (
-- Subquery to select match_no values from match_details where stop1_sec is equal to 0
SELECT match_no
FROM match_details
WHERE stop1_sec = 0
);
Explanation:
This query uses a subquery in the WHERE clause to filter the matches. It first selects match numbers from match_details where stop1_sec = 0, and then checks if the match number is in the list of matches.
Using Subquery with EXISTS:
-- Selecting match_no and country_name from match_mast and soccer_country
SELECT m.match_no, sc.country_name
-- From clause with JOINs between match_mast, match_details, and soccer_country
FROM match_mast m
JOIN match_details md ON m.match_no = md.match_no
JOIN soccer_country sc ON md.team_id = sc.country_id
-- Where clause to filter results for matches where there exists a match_details record with stop1_sec equal to 0
WHERE EXISTS (
-- Subquery to check if there is at least one match_details record for the same match_no with stop1_sec equal to 0
SELECT 1
FROM match_details md2
WHERE md2.match_no = m.match_no AND m.stop1_sec = 0
);
Explanation:
This query uses an EXISTS subquery to check if there's at least one record in match_details with stop1_sec = 0 for each match. It joins match_mast, match_details, and soccer_country, and then uses the EXISTS clause to filter the results.
