Hi I tried to solve following task: I have a table
start, reason, km ============= 2014-01-01 08:00:00, private, 10 2014-01-01 09:00:00, commerc, 20 2014-01-01 10:00:00, commerc, 20 2014-01-01 11:00:00, private, 8 and I would reduce these rows to 2014-01-01 08:00:00, private, 10 2014-01-01 09:00:00, commerc, 20 + 20 = 40 2014-01-01 11:00:00, private, 8 It is relative hard to it now with SQL only. But we can simplify this task with window function that returns number of change in some column. Then this task can be solved by select min(start), min(reason), sum(km) from (select start, reason, km, change_number(reason) over (order by start)) group by change_number; Do you think, so it has sense?
