Employee Salaries

  • RodneyShag + 8 comments

    MySQL solution

    From my HackerRank solutions.

    SELECT name FROM Employee
WHERE salary > 2000 AND months < 10
ORDER BY employee_id;

    Let me know if you have any questions.

      question says salary should be greater than 2000 PER MONTH. your query check if it is greater than 2000 or not . explain please.

        "salary is the their monthly salary" as it says in the problem.

      Why does it give wrong answer if I use HAVING clause instead of WHERE clause?

      • RodneyShag + 0 comments

        paste your code here and we can take a look.

        hope ur code is like "select name,salary,months from employee having salary >2000 and months < 10 order by employee_id;" sal,months are not expected in output.

        HAVING is used with GROUP BY and not ORDER BY. In the question you have been asked to sort according to the employee_id. This can be done by using ORDER BY.

      Oracle :

      SELECT name FROM Employee WHERE salary > 2000 and months< 10 ORDER BY employee_id asc;

      Other with MS SQL Server, I don't think you can order by employee_id if employee_id is not in you select!

      This is my MySQL Query:- 

      SELECT name
FROM Employee
WHERE months < 10 
  AND salary > 2000;

      shall we need to add command "ORDER BY employee_id" here. by default table itself, data is displayed in order of Employee ID. Not only that, it does't mention in question also.

        yes your query does pass the testcase

      • RodneyShag + 0 comments

        The question states to " Sort your result by ascending employee_id".

        We need to add "Order By employee_id" because it is specified that we need ascending order.

      What if months = 9 and salary = 9000

      • RodneyShag + 0 comments

        The line salary > 2000 AND months < 10 will match that (as in it will be true)

      The question asks to order employee id ascending. ORDER BY employee_id ASC;

      ASC = Ascending DESC = Descending
