Hi, In the following sql query, I want to get all the lines which satisfies that the first column appears less or equal to 2 times. Is there a way to do it other than using inner join of the original table and the query in main.sql?
$ cat main.sql #!/usr/bin/env bash #sqlite3 foods.db <<EOF rm -rf main.db sqlite3 main.db <<EOF create table test (col1 text, col2 text); insert into test values('a1', 'b1'); insert into test values('a1', 'b2'); insert into test values('a1', 'b3'); insert into test values('a1', 'b4'); insert into test values('a2', 'b5'); insert into test values('a2', 'b6'); insert into test values('a3', 'b8'); .mode column .headers on .echo on select col1, col2 from test group by col1 having count(*) <= 2; EOF $ ./main.sql select col1, col2 from test group by col1 having count(*) <= 2; col1 col2 ---------- ---------- a2 b6 a3 b8 -- Regards, Peng _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
