| SELECT Statement - Aggregates | - ISO standard defines five aggregate functions: i) COUNT returns number of values in specified column. ii) SUM returns sum of values in specified column. iii) AVG returns average of values in specified column. iv) MIN returns smallest value in specified column. iiv) MAX returns largest value in specified column. **Each operates on a single column of a table and returns a single value. |
| SELECT Statement - Aggregates (continued) | a) COUNT, MIN, and MAX apply to numeric and non-numeric fields, but SUM and AVG may be used on numeric fields only. b) Apart from COUNT(*), each function eliminates nulls first and operates only on remaining non-null values. c) COUNT(*) counts all rows of a table, regardless of whether nulls or duplicate values occur. d) Can use DISTINCT before column name to eliminate duplicates. e) DISTINCT has no effect with MIN/MAX, but may have with SUM/AVG. |
