Question

Currently my code is like this:

<?php 
$qall = $db->query("SELECT * FROM location_code 
WHERE 
StateCode='".$secureStateCode."'");
while($fall = $db->fetch($qall)) {
?>
<tr>
  <th><?php echo $fall['StateCode']; ?></th>
  <td><?php echo $fall['StateName']; ?></td>
  <td>
  <?php
    $query = $db->query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS `male_count` 
    FROM `all_users` 
    WHERE `Sex`='M' 
    AND 
    `StateCode`='{$fall['StateCode']}'");
    $data  = $db->fetch($query);
    echo $data['male_count']; 
    ?>
  </td>
  <td>
  <?php
    $query = $db->query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS `female_count` 
    FROM `all_users` 
    WHERE `Sex`='F' 
    AND 
    `StateCode`='{$fall['StateCode']}'");
    $data  = $db->fetch($query);
    echo $data['female_count']; 
    ?>
  </td>
  <td>Total male_count + female_count</td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>

How do I combine these queries and get them loading faster for the total of male & female. Currently I have about 500k users.

Answer 1

$db->query("
    SELECT
        `Sex`,
        COUNT(*) AS count,
    FROM
        `all_users` 
    WHERE 
        `StateCode` = '{$fall['StateCode']}'
    GROUP BY 
        `Sex` WITH ROLLUP
");

Should return three rows, like so:

----------------
+ Sex  + count +
----------------
+  F   + 12345 +
+  M   + 54321 +
+ null + 66666 +
----------------

You should be able to get the rest from there =)
