Hi, I am trying to count the number or rows in a table with similar field values. I want to do it in one table scan. In other words, say I want to count the number of rows in Person table, having age equal to 40, and the number of rows with status as 'married'. I want Person table to be scanned only once during this query. So, basically I want to do the following: SELECT COUNT(age=40), COUNT(status='married') FROM Person;
I tried to use aggregate functions with group by and having clauses, but I still can't figure it out (probably because of the lack of experience). Please help.
