How do you select from mysql where last character in a string = x?
SELECT * FROM `myTable` WHERE `mov_id` LIKE '%1' OR `mov_id` LIKE '%2'
the %
character is a wildcard which matches anything (like *
in many other places)
If mov_id
is a numeric value (TINYINT, INT, etc...) then you should use a numeric operator. For instance, use the modulo operator to keep the last digit
SELECT * FROM mytable
WHERE (mov_id MOD 10) IN (1, 2)
If mov_id
is a string, you can use LIKE or SUBSTRING(). SUBSTRING() will be slightly faster.
SELECT * FROM mytable
WHERE SUBSTRING(mov_id, -1) IN ('1', '2')
If your table is big or that query is frequently run, you should definitely consider adding a column to your table, in which you would store mov_id
's last digit/character, and index that column.
