Greetings
I have a table with the following table structure -
Field Type Collation Null Key
Default Extra
------- ------------- ----------------- ------
------ ------- ------
email char(75) latin1_swedish_ci
is_sent enum('Y','N') latin1_swedish_ci YES
N
id int(11) binary PRI
0
I store information about people email whom i need to
send mails and whether a mail has been sent to them or
not.
When I execute a query something like this -
select id/1024,
concat(sum(conv(substring(md5(email),1,8),16,10)),
sum(conv(substring(md5(email),9,16),16,10))) as b from
email_table_copy group by id/1024 order by 1 limit 5;
I get a rsultset -
id/1024 b

When I execute a query like -
select id/1024, @a:=md5(email),
concat(sum(conv(substring(@a,1,8),16,10)),
sum(conv(substring(@a,9,16),16,10))) as b from
email_table_copy group by id/1024 order by 1 limit 5;
I get a resultset -
id/1024 @a:=md5(email) b

Shouldnt be the value of `b` be same both the times.
By executing the second query i belive i do md5
conversion only once which should significantly boost
the result on a big table.
Am I doing something wrong?
Also, what is the best way to remove the md5 key
column from the resultset as I dont need that.
Thanks in advance
Karam
