Benefits of using MySQL's case method:

The biggest advantage of using select and case in combination is that it can be organized flexibly when displaying query results, and the other is to effectively avoid multiple visits to the same table or several tables.

Here's a simple example. For example, the table students(id, name ,birthday, sex, grade) requires statistics on the number of boys and girls in each grade.

The heading of the statistical results is grade, number of boys, number of girls. If you don't use select case when, in order to display the number of men and women side by side, it is very troublesome to count, first determine the grade information, then take the number of boys and girls according to the grade, and it is easy to make mistakes.

Select case when written as follows:

SELECT grade, COUNT (CASE WHEN sex = 1 THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) Number of boys, COUNT (CASE WHEN sex = 2 THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) Number of girls FROM studentsGROUP BY grade; Thank you for reading this article carefully.
