Question

I have 3 tables

• users table with user name and user id,
• leader board of users with user id and score
• leader board of likes with user id and numOfLikes

I want to select the name of the user with the most likes, and the name of the users with the most score. But my problem is that when I am writing the query I have duplicated name field there. What should I do?

Answer 1

i use following three tables in my query

1. usertable – contain username and userid
2. table2 – contain userid and score
3. table3 – contain userid and numOfLikes

To get details of user with max score use following

select usrtbl.username,usrtbl.userid,tbl2.score from  usertable usrtbl inner join table2 tbl2 on usrtbl.userid=tbl2.userid order by tbl2.score
desc limit 1

To get details of user with max number of likes use following

select usrtbl.username,usrtbl.userid,tbl3.numOfLikes from  usertable usrtbl inner join table3 tbl3 on usrtbl.userid=tbl3.userid order by tbl3.numOfLikes
desc limit 1

To get all in one query use following query

select usrtbl.username as 'user_with_max_score',usrtbl.userid as 'userid_of_user_with_max_score',
tbl2.score as 'max_score',usrtbl2.username as 'user_with_max_likes',usrtbl2.userid as 'userid_of_user_with_max_score' ,
tbl3.numOfLikes as 'max_likes' from  usertable usrtbl2 inner join table3 tbl3 inner join  usertable usrtbl inner join table2 tbl2 
on usrtbl.userid=tbl2.userid  and usrtbl2.userid=tbl3.userid order by tbl2.score desc,tbl3.numOfLikes desc
 limit 1
