Hi, Could any one show me how to write the following
function?  Thank you very, very much!  

The GPA Function

1. A GPA is calculated in the following fashion:
Assume a student receives
an A on a 3-credit_hour course and a D on a
2-credit-hour course. His grade
is (4*3+1*2)/(3+2)=2.8.

2.Repeat_delete Policy: A student may repeat a course
as many times as he
wants. However, if the first grade he receives on this
course is a D or F,
then the second grade will automatically replaces the
first grade, and the
first enrollment will not go into his GPA calculation.
Under any other
circumstances, his grades will be considered as a
regular grade and be
taken into consideration for GPA.

create table Enrollment(
Student# NUMBER (7),
SNUM NUMBER (5),
Call# NUMBER (7),
Semester char (8),
GRADE char (3),
Credit number,
Withdraw_Date Date);

SNUM + Call# represents one class.

 Insert into Enrollment
values('58001','111','70070','Sp2000','F',3, null);
Insert into Enrollment
values('58001','111','70070','Fa2000','B',3, null);
Insert into Enrollment
values('58003','222','70070','Sp2000','A',2, null);
Insert into Enrollment
values('58004','333','80025','Fa2000','A',2, null);
Insert into Enrollment
values('58005','222','80025','Fa2000','C',3, null);

Chris, I'm not sure what you mean here. 

The concept of Variable Transfer Rate covers this.

Stealing a quote from: Optimal Storage Configuration Made Easy,
By Juan Loaiza, Oracle Corporation

The transfer rate for a disk drive is not the same for all portions of a
disk.  
The outer sectors of a disk drive move by the disk head faster than the
inner sections 
leading to a faster transfer rate for the outer sectors.  This is simply
because 
of the circular shape of a disk drive.

RE:Deleting Files in NT

2001-05-23 Thread Scott Crabtree

Raj,
If you have the resource kit installed you can use forfiles.

forfiles -pp:\zipfiles\hot\ -s -m*.* -d-20052001 -cCMD /C DEL /Q @FILE;

Forfiles is helpful for ton's of DB Maintenance, you can pipe the results to
any dos command you want.

We use a statement like the one below in our spool_Hot_Backup script

to prune the backup directories before we put all the tablespaces in hot
backup mode and ocopy them, We then compress them in a staging directory
using pacomp and move them to a drive so that last nights datafiles are
around for a speedy recovery (If Necessary).  

 /* Clean Out ZIP Files older than two days: Uses Forfiles Resource
Kit*/
  select to_char(sysdate-2,'ddmm') into datestr from dual;
 dbms_output.put_line('host forfiles -p'||backupdir||' -s -m*.*
-d-'||datestr||
' -c'||chr(34)||'CMD /C DEL /Q @FILE'||chr(34)||';');

RE: Problem in fetching Table Info

2001-05-14 Thread Scott Crabtree

Manoj,
Nothing helps your sql skills like traversing the data dictionary,
put on your hip waders get out your TUSC posters, a magnifying glass, a
bottle of scotch and dive in.  Here is one way, by no means the best or the
only.  


SELECT A.column_name, A.data_type,
DECODE(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
DECODE(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
 A.data_length) as Length,
 A.nullable, min(con_p) || min(con_c) ||  min(con_r), column_id
FROM 
 user_tab_columns A, (select B.constraint_name con_name,
DECODE(B.constraint_type,'P','P',null) con_p,
DECODE(B.constraint_type,'C','C',null) con_c,
DECODE(B.constraint_type,'R','R',null) con_r,
B.table_name tname, C.Column_name col_name
FROMuser_constraints B, user_cons_columns C
WHERE   B.constraint_name = C.constraint_name
  AND B.Table_name = 'AG_PRODUCT'
  ) my_all_cons
WHERE
  A.column_name= my_all_cons.col_name (+) AND
  A.table_name = my_all_cons.tname (+) AND
  A.table_name = 'AG_PRODUCT'
  GROUP BY  A.column_name, A.data_type,
DECODE(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
DECODE(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
 A.data_length),
 A.nullable,
 column_id
   ORDER BY COLUMN_ID

If you like recursive SQL, take the table_name out of the inline view and
join my_all_cons.tname = A.table_name in the outer.  Great for watching
recursive sql for those with Unabridged Data Dictionaries

Hi Gurus,

I am facing some problem while fetching data from
oracle.
I have to fetch all info like
column_name,data_type,data_length,Nullable and primary
key for particular table.
For that i had prepared 2 quiries like:
select A.column_name,A.data_type,
2   decode(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
  3  
decode(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
  4   A.data_length) as Length,
  5   A.nullable from
  6*  user_tab_columns A where table_name = 'TEST'

Which gives me info as :
COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
-- - -- -
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
FLD4   VARCHAR2  30 Y
FLD5   VARCHAR2 100 Y
FLD6   VARCHAR2  50 Y
FLD7   NUMBER22 Y 


Which is fine,but along with this i want info like
which fields are pkey for which i have one more query:

select C.column_name,B.constraint_type from
user_constraints B,user_cons_columns C
where
B.constraint_name=C.constraint_name and
B.table_name='TEST'

which gives me info as to which are pkeys in table,
But when i join these 2 quiries i get only 3 fields
which are in primary key like FLD1,FLD2,FLD3

COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
C
-- - -- -
-
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
P
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
P
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
P

whereas i want all other fields also along with that.
Output should be as :
COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
-- - -- -
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
P
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
P
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
P
FLD4   VARCHAR2  30 Y
FLD5   VARCHAR2 100 Y
FLD6   VARCHAR2  50 Y
FLD7   NUMBER22 Y 

I tried following query for this:
  1   select A.column_name,A.data_type,
  2   decode(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
  3  
decode(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
  4   A.data_length) as Length,
  5   A.nullable,B.constraint_type from
  6   user_tab_columns A,
  7   user_constraints B,
  8   user_cons_columns C
  9   where
 10   B.constraint_name=C.constraint_name and
 11   A.column_name=C.column_name(+) and
 12   A.table_name=B.table_name and
 13*  A.table_name = 'GEMS

Home Grown Partitioning

2001-04-04 Thread Scott Crabtree

To ORACLE-L tuning Gurus:

Running Oracle 8.1.7.0.2 on W2K

I have a query involving a partition view, but I can't
seem to get it to filter partitions.  Even though I
join it to a table with rows that join only to one of
the view's underlying tables, it persists in
performing the union-all and then hash-joining the
result.  But this is very inefficient; when I join the
query to the single underlying table, it runs ten
times faster.

Other queries using this partition view properly
filter partitions, but for some reason, we have a 
query which is refusing to behave.
  
I have tried the USE_NL hint (to prevent the
hash-join) and the INDEX hint, but neither have
worked.

We have
partition_view_enabled = TRUE in the ini file.  

Any Suggestions Would be greatly appreciated.  (We 
can't run Oracle Enterprise Edition 
and therefore can not use Oracle Partitioning)

Thanks, and 
Sorry for the long post 

(I didn't include the query because it make this post even
longer, if anyone would like to see it I will email it offline)

RE: hash_area_size

2001-03-29 Thread Scott Crabtree



Chuck, The closest I could come to a definate 
answer on this one was in doc 58906.996where the Tech skirted the issue you asked 
about.

Quote

metalink 
user  "5. Does every client connection/session get 
hash_area_size allocated or only those that execute a hash 
join. tech  I 
believe that hash_area_size is allocated for a process that executes a hash 
join."

Great, but does it stay 
allocated after?

From 
playing around with it, I set my hash area size up to 1600 and no memory was 
allocated until Iexecuteda query that hash joined. Once it was 
allocated it wasn't released until the session ended. Also, I believe the 
memory is not shared. (When I had 4 user processes executing the queries my 
machine was down 64MB)

tech  The memory for 
hash_area_size is allocated from the User Global Area (UGA) of a user process. 
For dedicated server connection, this is part of process memory (PGA). For 
multi-threaded server, the UGA is allocated from either the Shared Pool or the 
Large Pool, if the Large Pool is configured (recommended).

RE: 8.1.7 Patches

2001-03-21 Thread Scott Crabtree

Todd,
Sorry, I spoke too soon,

we are patching to 8.1.7.0.2 on NT

MetaBlurb Quote about  8.1.7.1
"No date on Windows NT, it is still listed as delayed 
HP-UX 3/23/01 
AIX 3/23/01 
Compaq 3/16/01 "

Sorry about the disinformation.

Scott

Todd,
Your skepticism is healthy, but Metalink is not:-) 8.1.7.1 is the
latest patch AFAIK.

Scott

Metalink shows that there is no patch available for 8.1.7 on NT. Is that
correct or am I needing a vacation? I hate to be cynical, but an Oracle
product with no patch for 3 months? This I find hard to believe.
