Question

Is there any way to query a Cursor with the content sorted based on the row’s relationship between two columns?

For example, if I had two columns in my table:

1. Basketball shots made
2. Basketball shots attempted

is there any way I query a Cursor with the data sorted based on the “shot percentage” (i.e. made/attempted)?

Answer 1

Note that in order to get accurate sorting, you might need to cast to DOUBLE (the above suggestions does integer division which didn’t provide correct results in all cases):

ORDER BY CAST(ShotsMade AS DOUBLE)/ShotsAttempted DESC
