tsql - t-sql group by category and get top n values -

-

imagine have table:

month | person | value ---------------------- jan   | p1     | 1 jan   | p2     | 2 jan   | p3     | 3 feb   | p1     | 5 feb   | p2     | 4 feb   | p3     | 3 feb   | p4     | 2 ...

how can build t-sql query top 2 value rows , third sum of others?

something this:

result:  month | person | value ---------------------- jan   | p3     | 3 jan   | p2     | 2 jan   | others | 1 -(sum of bottom value - in case (jan, p1, 1)) feb   | p1     | 5 feb   | p2     | 4 feb   | others | 5 -(sum of bottom values - in case (feb, p3, 3) , (feb, p4, 2))

thanks

in assumption using sql server 2005 or higher, using cte trick.

  • attach row_number each row, starting highest value, resetting each month.
  • select top 2 rows each month query (rownumber <= 2)
  • union remaining rows (rownumber > 2)

sql statement

;with months (month, person, value) (   select 'jan', 'p1', 1 union   select 'jan', 'p2', 2 union   select 'jan', 'p3', 3 union   select 'feb', 'p1', 5 union   select 'feb', 'p2', 4 union   select 'feb', 'p3', 3 union   select 'feb', 'p4', 2 ), q (   select  month           , person           , value           , rownumber = row_number() on (partition month order value desc)      months ) select  month         , person         , value    (                   select  month                   , person                   , value                   , rownumber              q             rownumber <= 2            union           select  month                   , person = 'others'                   , sum(value)                   , max(rownumber)              q             rownumber > 2                   group                   month          ) q                           order         month desc         , rownumber

c# - Is it possible to remove an existing registration from Autofac container builder? -

something along lines: builder.registertype<mytype>().as<itype>(); builder.registertype<mytype2>().as<itype>(); builder.deregistertype<mytype>().as<itype>() var container = builder.build(); var types = container.resolve<ienumerable<itype>>(); assert.istrue(types.count == 1); assert.istrue(types[0].gettype == typeof(mytype2)); scenario: go through bunch of assemblies , go register types want make sure have 1 implementation of given type. need before create container. track on own nice if autofac me bit. this cannot done directly using containerbuilder , unless start on new one. mind you, having first built container should able construct new container filtering away unwanted types , reusing registrations first container. this: ... var container = builder.build(); builder = new containerbuilder(); var components = container.componentregistry.registrations .where(cr => cr.activator.limittype != typ...

php - Mysql PK and FK char(36) vs int(10) -

-
i have read mysql can handle indexes , searches better if tables keys integers rather char(36) uuid's. is worth converting int(10)? note: use 1 server , have have plans use multiple databases concurrently therefore removing 1 of big reasons using uuid. our tables innodb if makes difference. thanks in advance. usually rdbms can handle integer keys pk more efficient, other datatypes. reason how build index column, yes: long dont require string (or other typed) keys, should use integers. however: char(36) , int(10) far away being equal, because int(10) much smaller, char(36). dont know, if require many different keys, should keep in mind. update, complete last paragraph: int(10) 32-bit, char(36) 36 - ^byte^ (= 288-bit). not mean, int consumes less space, means, char(36) has 4 times more different keys.
