Querying data using the SQL Case statement code example
Example 1: sql case
CASE
WHEN condition1 THEN result1
WHEN condition2 THEN result2
WHEN conditionN THEN resultN
ELSE result
END
SELECT
CASE
WHEN (1+6 = 6) THEN 'A'
WHEN (1+6 = 7) THEN 'B'
WHEN (1+6 = 8) THEN 'C'
ELSE 'D'
END
FROM DUAL;
Example 2: sql case
Change query output depending on conditions.
Example: Returns users and their subscriptions, along with a new column
called activity_levels that makes a judgement based on the number of
subscriptions.
SELECT first_name, surname, subscriptions
CASE WHEN subscriptions > 10 THEN 'Very active'
WHEN Quantity BETWEEN 3 AND 10 THEN 'Active'
ELSE 'Inactive'
END AS activity_levels
FROM users;
Example 3: sql CASE
SELECT column_name,
CASE
WHEN condition THEN 'Result_1'
WHEN condition THEN 'Result_2'
ELSE 'Result_3'
END
FROM table_name;
