Question

I have a table with rows with two columns

A 1
A 2
B 1
B 3
C 1
C 2
C 3

and I want to get from this only this ID(a,b or c) which has only 2 rows with value 1,2, so from this table I should get a, bacause b hasn’t row with 2, and c has rows with 1 and b, but also has row with c..

What is the simplest way to get this row?

Answer 1

SELECT col1
FROM YourTable
GROUP BY col1
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT col2) =2 AND MIN(col2) = 1 AND MAX(col2) = 2

Or another way extendible to more than 2 numbers

SELECT col1
FROM   yourtable
GROUP  BY col1
HAVING MIN(CASE
             WHEN col2 IN ( 1, 2 ) THEN 1
             ELSE 0
           END) = 1
       AND COUNT(DISTINCT col2) = 2
