Question

I am going nuts already, don’t know what else to try.
I got this data:

Table name is erste

valuta  kupovni    
EUR     7.435   
GBP     9.2132  

And then I try this:

SELECT valuta, MAX(kupovni)
FROM erste

I get this:

valuta  MAX(kupovni)
 EUR    9.213199615478516

And I want to get:

GBP 9.2132

Column valuta is varchar(3) and kupovni is float (10).
I really dont know what I am doing it wrong.
When I try:

SELECT valuta, MAX(kupovni)
FROM erste
GROUP BY kupovni

It does it right?

Answer 1

This merely seems like a simple matter of selecting the row with the highest value for the kupovni field.

You can do:

SELECT valuta, kupovni
FROM erste
ORDER BY kupovni DESC
LIMIT 1
