I am using a clever product called SQL Expert Pro to optimize problematic SQL statements. It works by generating syntactically identical variations of the original SQL, finding all unique execution plans, and batch testing them. Anyway, it generally turns out that a very odd change dramatically improves performance (for a PeopleSoft database on SQL Server 7). Run time goes from 52 seconds to 8 seconds. The change is to replace a join...

Hi everybody, VARCHAR has a higher precedence than CHAR. If you have a query SELECT COALESCE(c1,c2) FROM T1 where c1 is CHAR(5) and c2 is VARCHAR(10), I would expect the return type to be varchar(10) similiar to UNION. However it turns out to be CHAR(10). Does anyone know why that is so?

Any ideas on why my the result 'green' row column DELTA does not yield -1 for? That is not how I expected COALESCE( ... ) to work. Every other row for DELTA (including 'black') comes out the way I expected. Thanks for considering this, John G.

This is a short tip describing the sql coalesce function. Description COALESCE accepts a comma separated list of parameters and returns the first value that is not null in that list or null if all the arguments are null. Thus COALESCE (a1, a2, a3, ..., an) will return a1 if a1 is not null, a2 if a1 is null but a2 is not null, a3 if a1, a2 are null but a3 is not null and so on.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...

Hello I'm a network technician in training and I need your help. I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
