mysql中,在一个表表达中可以调用另一个表表达式,这个被调用的表表达式叫做子查询(subquery)语句,也称作子选择(subselect)或内嵌选择(inner select)。子查询的结果传递给调用它的表表达式继续处理。

1、创建测试表CREATE TABLE PLAYERS

(PLAYERNO INTEGER NOT NULL,
NAME CHAR(15) NOT NULL,
INITIALS CHAR(3) NOT NULL,
BIRTH_DATE DATE ,
SEX CHAR(1) NOT NULL,
JOINED SMALLINT NOT NULL,
STREET VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
HOUSENO CHAR(4) ,
POSTCODE CHAR(6) ,
TOWN VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
PHONENO CHAR(13) ,
LEAGUENO CHAR(4) ,
PRIMARY KEY (PLAYERNO));
CREATE TABLE PENALTIES
(PAYMENTNO INTEGER NOT NULL,
PLAYERNO INTEGER NOT NULL,
PAYMENT_DATE DATE NOT NULL,
AMOUNT DECIMAL(7,2) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (PAYMENTNO));
注:表players为球员信息基本表,表penalties为有过罚款记录的球员信息列表。
2、插入测试数据INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (2, 'Everett', 'R', '1948-09-01', 'M', 1975, 'Stoney Road','43', '3575NH', 'Stratford', '070-237893', '2411');
INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (6, 'Parmenter', 'R', '1964-06-25', 'M', 1977, 'Haseltine Lane','80', '1234KK', 'Stratford', '070-476537', '8467');
INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (7, 'Wise', 'GWS', '1963-05-11', 'M', 1981, 'Edgecombe Way','39', '9758VB', 'Stratford', '070-347689', NULL);INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (8, 'Newcastle', 'B', '1962-07-08', 'F', 1980, 'Station Road','4', '6584WO', 'Inglewood', '070-458458', '2983');

INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (57, 'Brown', 'M', '1971-08-17', 'M', 1985, 'Edgecombe Way','16', '4377CB', 'Stratford', '070-473458', '6409');INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (83, 'Hope', 'PK', '1956-11-11', 'M', 1982, 'Magdalene Road','16A', '1812UP', 'Stratford', '070-353548', '1608');
INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (95, 'Miller', 'P', '1963-05-14', 'M', 1972, 'High Street','33A', '5746OP', 'Douglas', '070-867564', NULL);
INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (100, 'Parmenter', 'P', '1963-02-28', 'M', 1979, 'Haseltine Lane','80', '6494SG', 'Stratford', '070-494593', '6524');
INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (104, 'Moorman', 'D', '1970-05-10', 'F', 1984, 'Stout Street','65', '9437AO', 'Eltham', '079-987571', '7060');
INSERT INTO PLAYERS VALUES (112, 'Bailey', 'IP', '1963-10-01', 'F', 1984, 'Vixen Road','8', '6392LK', 'Plymouth', '010-548745', '1319');
INSERT INTO PENALTIES VALUES (1, 6, '1980-12-08',100);
INSERT INTO PENALTIES VALUES (2, 44, '1981-05-05', 75);
INSERT INTO PENALTIES VALUES (3, 27, '1983-09-10',100);
INSERT INTO PENALTIES VALUES (4,104, '1984-12-08', 50);
INSERT INTO PENALTIES VALUES (5, 44, '1980-12-08', 25);

INSERT INTO PENALTIES VALUES (8, 27, '1984-11-12', 75);

3、表子查询实例

如:获取编号小于10的男性球员的号码mysql> select playerno from (
select playerno, sex
from players
where playerno < 10)
as players10 where sex='M';

4、行子查询实例

如:获取和100号球员性别相同并且居住在同一城市的球员号码。mysql> select playerno
from players
where (sex, town) = (
select sex, town
from players
where playerno = 100);
说明:子查询的结果是带有两个值的一行:('M','stratford')。这个值和一个行表达式(sex,town)进行比较。
5 标量子查询实例
可以指定一个标量表达式的任何地方,几乎都可以使用一个标量子查询。
如:获取和27号球员出生在同一年的球员的号码mysql> select playerno
from players
where year(birth_date) =
(select year(birth_date)
from players
where playerno = 27)
and playerno <> 27;
上面语句等同于:mysql> select playerno from players where year(birth_date) = 1964 and playerno <> 27;

6 列子查询实例

由于列子查询返回的结果集是 N 行一列,因此不能直接使用 = > < >= <= <> 这些比较标量结果的操作符。在列子查询中可以使用 IN、ANY(SOME)和ALL操作符:
IN:在指定项内,同 IN(项1,项2,…)。
ANY:与比较操作符联合使用,ANY关键字必须接在一个比较操作符的后面,表示与子查询返回的任何值比较为 TRUE ,则返回 TRUE 。
SOME:ANY 的别名,较少使用。
ALL:与比较操作符联合使用,ALL关键字必须接在一个比较操作符的后面,表示与子查询返回的所有值比较都为 TRUE ,则返回 TRUE 。
实例1(in):获取球员性别为女的所有球员的球员号,名字及所在城市。mysql> select playerno, name, town
from players
where playerno in
(select playerno
from players
where sex = 'F');
实例2(any):获取至少比同城的另一球员年轻的所有球员的号码,日期和居住城市。mysql> select playerno, birth_date, town
from players as p1
where birth_date > any
(select birth_date
from players as p2
where p1.town = p2.town);
实例3(all):获取最老球员的号码,名字及生日。(即出生日期数值小于或等于所有其它球员的球员)mysql> select playerno, name, birth_date
from players
where birth_date <= all
(select birth_date
from players);
mysql> select name, initials
from players
where exists
(select * from penalties
where playerno = players.playerno);
实例2(not exists):获取那些从来没有罚款的球员的名字和首字母。mysql> select name, initials
from players
where not exists
(select * from penalties
where playerno = players.playerno);
