When I try executing the command I get 'SQL error: near "as": syntax error'.
Let me explain what I am trying to do, there might be a better way to do it. I have a table of weights as one of the columns. I am trying to return data so that I can create a histogram of the data. My query is as follows: Select round(field, 1), count(*) from table group by round(field, 1); -----Original Message----- From: Dennis Cote [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2006 1:31 PM To: sqlite-users@sqlite.org Subject: Re: [sqlite] Decimal conversion nbiggs wrote: >How do I convert the number 49.991 to just 49.9 in a select statement? >Using the round(weight, 1) returns 50.0. > >Is there a truncate function? > > Nathan, You can use: select cast ((field * 10) as integer) / 10.0 If this is something you do a lot of it might make sense to define a custom function.
