Question

Okay, so, let’s pretend I have a table like this:

Name Rank Score
Adam 1    10
Adam 2    20
Adam 3    14
Jane 2    11
Jane 3    14
Jane 4    45
Rick 1    49
Rick 3    24
Rick 5    12

I need to produce a set of results in a single table that SUMs ranks 1 and 2 in one column, and ranks 3+ in the second column. I can do this as two separate SQL statements, like so:

SELECT Name, SUM(Score) AS Score1
FROM Table
WHERE Rank < 3
GROUP BY Name

and

SELECT Name, SUM(Score) AS Score2
FROM Table
WHERE Rank > 2
GROUP BY Name

But I can’t think of any way to produce a single SQL statement that results in a single table, that might look like this:

Name Score1 Score2
Adam 30     14
Jane 11     59
Rick 49     36

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1

This assumes Ranks are integers:

SELECT Name, 
    sum(case when Rank in (1, 2) then Score else null end) as Score1,
    sum(case when Rank < 1 or Rank > 2 then Score else null end) as Score2
FROM Table 
GROUP BY Name
