If I want to select min and max values from a whole table I can use this:
SELECT min(price) as min_price, max(price) as max_price FROM `prices`
But how to select min and max values from just a part of a table?
For example, I have 30 rows in a table. I want to select min and max values from first ten rows, then from second ten rows and then form the last 10.
I've tried something like
SELECT min(price) as min_price, max(price) as max_price FROM `prices` LIMIT 0,10
but this did not work.
How can I solve this problem with minimum queries?
SELECT MIN(PRICE) AS MinPrice, MAX(PRICE) AS MaxPrice FROM (SELECT PRICE FROM PRICES LIMIT 10) tmp;
moreover, MySQL have a cool feature that will let you return an arbitrary range of rows (eg return rows 10-20). This is very handy for displaying pages of records:
SELECT column FROM table
LIMIT 10 OFFSET 20
The above query will return rows 20-30.
So in short, to return rows from 20 to 30 in case of your query, you use:
SELECT MIN(PRICE) AS MinPrice, MAX(PRICE) AS MaxPrice
FROM (SELECT PRICE FROM PRICES LIMIT 10 OFFSET 20);
YOU need to change the offset value to specify the start point of your range.
Have you tried :
SELECT min(price) as min_price, max(price) as max_price FROM
(SELECT price FROM `prices` LIMIT 0,10);
