修复一：筛除 null

+--------+-----------------+
| order  | price_per_unit  |
|--------|-----------------|
| 1      | 4.50            |
| 2      | 2.25            |
| 3      | null            |

修复二：COALESCE()

语法：COALESCE(field, null_replacement)

SELECT 
    COALESCE(region,'Independent Athletes') AS region,
    COUNT(DISTINCT athlete_id) AS athletes
FROM summer_games AS s
JOIN countries AS c
ON s.country_id = c.id;

+-----------------------+-----------+
| region                | athletes  |
|-----------------------|-----------|
| BALTICS               | 42        |
| OCEANIA               | 62        |
| Independent Athletes  | 10        |
+-----------------------+-----------+

| 124     | 2     | null  |
| 125     | null  | 1     |
+---------+-------+-------+

SELECT *, COALESCE(home,0) + COALESCE(away,0) AS total_goals
FROM soccer_games;

| 124     | 2     | null  | 2            |
| 125     | null  | 1     | 1            |

查询导致的 null

原因：

LEFT JOIN 未匹配到所有行
没有满足任何 CASE 条件
还有其他情况！

衡量 null 的影响

为 null 的行所占比例

SELECT SUM(CASE when country IS NULL then 1 else 0 end) / SUM(1.00)
FROM orders;

+-------+
| .12   |
+-------+

为 null 的营收占比

SELECT SUM(CASE when country IS NULL then revenue else 0 end) / SUM(revenue)
FROM orders;

+-------+
| .25   |
+-------+
