SQL : PostgreSQL

  Aggregate Functions Like most other relational database products,  PostgreSQL  supports  aggregate functions . An aggregate function computes a single result from multiple input rows. For example, there are aggregates to compute the  count ,  sum ,  avg  (average),  max  (maximum) and  min  (minimum) over a set of rows. As an example, we can find the highest low-temperature reading anywhere with: SELECT max(temp_lo) FROM weather; max ----- 46 (1 row) If we wanted to know what city (or cities) that reading occurred in, we might try: SELECT city FROM weather WHERE temp_lo = max(temp_lo); WRONG but this will not work since the aggregate  max  cannot be used in the  WHERE  clause. (This restriction exists because the  WHERE  clause determines which rows will be included in the aggregate calculation; so obviously it has to be evaluated before aggregate functions are computed.) However, as is o...

Trying to add my sample code on my blog ! ( I added the YouTube link )


print("   /|")
print("  / |")
print(" /  |")
print("/___|")

def max_num(num1, num2, num3):
    if num1 >= num2 and num1 >= num3:
        return num1
    elif num2 >= num1 and num2 >= num3:
        return num2
    else :
        return num3
print(max_num(30,20,15))
