GROUP BY Statement
GROUP BY statement is very popular in Oracle SQL. You can group specific or all rows which have same values into summary rows.
Aggregate functions (MAX, MIN, SUM, AVG,COUNT) are often used in the Group by statements.
GROUP BY Syntax
GROUP BY syntax is as follows.
SELECT column1,column2 FROM table_name WHERE condition GROUP BY column1,column2;
SELECT column1,column2 FROM table_name WHERE condition GROUP BY column1,column2
ORDER BY column_name(s);
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table_name WHERE condition GROUP BY column_name(s) ORDER BY column_name(s);
Group by examples are as follows.
SQL> select first_name,last_name,salary from hr.employees where department_id in (20,30,40) group by first_name,last_name,salary;
