I need to write a query to find the youngest customer who bought atleast 1 product
Here is the data: CUSTOMER:
ORDER_DETAIL:
This is my query so far:
SELECT c.CUSTOMERID, c.age, c.name
from (
SELECT CUSTOMERID, COUNT(ORDERID) as "totalOrder"
FROM FACEBOOK_ORDER_DETAIL
GROUP BY CUSTOMERID
HAVING COUNT(ORDERID) >=1) AS tbl
LEFT JOIN FACEBOOK_CUSTOMER c on c.CUSTOMERID = tbl.CUSTOMERID
order by c.age ;
But I need the list of customers with the minimum age.
If you really only want a single youngest customer, even should there be a tie, then use LIMIT
:
SELECT c.CUSTOMERID, c.age, c.name
FROM CUSTOMER c
INNER JOIN FACEBOOK_ORDER_DETAIL o
ON c.CUSTOMERID = c.CUSTOMERID
ORDER BY
c.age
LIMIT 1;
This should work because if a customer joins to the order details table, it implies that he had at least one order.
If instead you want to find all youngest customers, including all ties, then a nice way to handle this uses the RANK
analytic function:
SELECT DISTINCT CUSTOMERID, age, name
FROM
(
SELECT c.CUSTOMERID, c.age, c.name, RANK() OVER (ORDER BY c.age) rnk
FROM CUSTOMER c
INNER JOIN FACEBOOK_ORDER_DETAIL o
ON c.CUSTOMERID = o.CUSTOMERID
) t
WHERE rnk = 1;
For earlier versions of MySQL, we can use a subquery as a workaround for not having RANK
:
SELECT DISTINCT c.CUSTOMERID, c.age, c.name
FROM CUSTOMER c
INNER JOIN FACEBOOK_ORDER_DETAIL o
ON c.CUSTOMERID = c.CUSTOMERID
WHERE c.age = (SELECT MIN(t1.age)
FROM CUSTOMER t1
INNER JOIN FACEBOOK_ORDER_DETAIL t2
ON t1.CUSTOMERID = t2.CUSTOMERID);
