SQL Count empty fields
34,927
Solution 1
SELECT count(improve) + count(timeframe) + count(impact) + count(criteria) FROM data
Solution 2
Something like this may get you going in the right direction
SELECT
SUM(CASE WHEN improve IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END +
CASE WHEN timeframe IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END +
CASE WHEN criteria IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END +
CASE WHEN impact IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END)
from
data

I'm not sure if this is possible or if it is, how to do it -
I have the following data in a database -
id | improve | timeframe | criteria | impact -------+------------+-------------+-----------+--------- 1 | | Test | Test | Test 2 | Test | | Test | 3 | | Test | | -------+------------+-------------+-----------+---------
Ignoring the id column, how can I determine the number of fields out of the remaining 12 that are not null using an SQL query?
I have started with -
SELECT improve, timeframe, impact, criteria FROM data WHERE improve IS NOT NULL AND timeframe IS NOT NULL AND impact IS NOT NULL AND criteria IS NOT NULL;
This only returns the number of rows, ie. 3.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
