Now I am trying to get the department details with number of students belonging to the department.
And here is my query,
select d.departmentid, d.name, sg.personid from department d inner join course c on c.departmentid = d.departmentid inner join student_grade sg on sg.courseid = c.courseid;
+--------------+--------------+----------+
| departmentid | name | personid |
+==============+==============+==========+
| 101 | Computer Sci | 1 |
| 101 | Computer Sci | 1 |
| 101 | Computer Sci | 1 |
| 104 | Mech | 3 |
| 104 | Mech | 2 |
| 103 | EEE | 4 |
| 103 | EEE | 4 |
+--------------+--------------+----------+
But I want to get the count(distinct(personid)) for each department like group by clause. But I am getting the error with the following query.
select d.departmentid, d.name, count(distinct(sg.personid)) from department d inner join course c on c.departmentid = d.departmentid inner join student_grade sg on sg.courseid = c.courseid;
Cannot use non GROUP BY column 'departmentid' in query results without an aggregate function
Please help me, where I am going wrong.
you have to use group by as you used aggregate funtion
select d.departmentid, d.name,
count(distinct(sg.personid))
from department d inner join course c on c.departmentid = d.departmentid inner join student_grade sg on sg.courseid = c.courseid;
group by d.departmentid, d.name
