Re: SUM value like 10,23,15,10

2010-08-24 Thread Johan De Meersman
If you're looking at the string 10,23,15,10 in a single field, you'll have
to do it the hard way. If you have an int field, and four rows with those
values, you can do a group by that field and select the count() of it.

 Hi

 In MySQL is it possible to SUM a field which contains like 10,23,15,10.
  The
 result I'd be looking for is

 10 = count of 2
 23 = count of 1
 15 = count of 1

 Cheers
 Neil

Yeah these values are held with a varchar field.

Then you're pretty much on your own, I'm afraid. Not a very good way to
store data :-)

You could maybe build a stored procedure, or do it in the app; but it's
gonna be code either way.

The application is still being developed, so I will probably look at storing
it in separate tables so that it can easily be computed.

The proper way to do this would indeed be a separate table that has (itemID,
property, value) or something like that.
