Filtering

Reporting in SQL

Filtering with a subquery

Top half of query:

SELECT 
    'Summer' AS season,
    CASE WHEN age >= 13 AND age <= 25 AND gender = 'M' THEN 'Male Age 13-25'
    WHEN age > 25 AND gender = 'M' THEN 'Male Age 26+'
    WHEN age >= 13 AND age <= 25 AND gender = 'F' THEN 'Female Age 13-25'
    WHEN age > 25 AND gender = 'F' THEN 'Female Age 26+' 
    END AS demographic_group, 
    SUM(gold) AS golds
FROM summer_games AS sg
JOIN athletes AS a 
ON sg.athlete_id = a.id
GROUP BY demographic_group;

Filtering with a subquery

Step 1: Setup subquery

SELECT id
FROM countries
WHERE region = 'WESTERN EUROPE';

Filtering with a subquery

Step 2: Setup WHERE statement

    CASE WHEN age >= 13 AND age <= 25 AND gender = 'M' THEN 'Male Age 13-25'
    WHEN age > 25 AND gender = 'M' THEN 'Male Age 26+'
    WHEN age >= 13 AND age <= 25 AND gender = 'F' THEN 'Female Age 13-25'
    WHEN age > 25 AND gender = 'F' THEN 'Female Age 26+' 
    END AS demographic_group, 
    SUM(gold) AS golds

JOIN athletes AS a 
ON sg.athlete_id = a.id
WHERE country_id IN

    WHEN age > 25 AND gender = 'M' THEN 'Male Age 26+'

    END AS demographic_group, 
    SUM(gold) AS golds
FROM summer_games AS sg
JOIN athletes AS a 
ON sg.athlete_id = a.id
JOIN countries AS c
