Question

Don’t know what is causing this but I try to get the level which has the heighest score-sum of all answers of that level.

Cursor c = myDataBase
                .rawQuery(
                        "select level "
                                + "from answers where player ='"
                                + player
                                + "' group by level order by sum (score) desc",
                        null);

All answers of a certain level have a score value. It constantly returns level 10 (of 10 levels) while actually another level has the highest score… if I apply an asc order, it works just fine :s

Answer 1

If you are trying to get only level with highest score then try using having as below:

            "select level "
            + "from answers where player ='"
            + player
            + "' group by level "
            + " having sum (score) = max(sum (score))";

EDIT:

            "select level from (select level, max(levelscore) as maxscore from "+
                               +" (select level, sum (score) as levelscore, "
                               + " from answers where player ='"
                               + player
                               + "' group by level )"
            + " ) where levelscore = maxscore";

or

           "select level from "+
                   +" (select level, sum (score) as levelscore, "
                   + " from answers where player ='"
                   + player
                   + "' group by level )"
                   + "order by levelscore desc LIMIT 1";
