I have a result resource from a large mysql query and I need to find
the single the highest value from a certain field. What's the best way
to pull it off?

A simple google of "sql max" would have led you to:
SELECT MAX(expression )
FROM tables
WHERE predicates;

Thanks Shelly but I'm not great with sql and my query is already huge.
I don't think I'll be able to modify it to include the max as well as
everything else. Not to worry - I'm going to split the results into a
3d array and then try to sort it with php.
Thanks for the help

So, you go to the library, take all the books, reorganise them, search
for the one you want to read and return the rest?

No, you throw the rest away! ;)
R.
Actually, I'm using all returned records further down my page - I just
want to pull the newest one to reference at the top.
Not to worry - the php is working out better for my design and I
almost have it sorted now anyway.

And I am almost sure, that even a second query would work out better. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to solve this problem but can't seem to figure out how to
start. I would like to create a rating system where people can vote
(1-5 stars) on randomly displayed items. The randomly displayed items
should either have very high ratings OR a very low number of ratings.
For example, only return items in the top 20th percentile *OR* items
with fewer than 5 votes.
The question is, how would I write an SQL query to...

Hi,
I have a database which records fitness test results of pupils.
There are the usual name fields and then a series of fields holding results,
e.g. field BP1 and field BP2; each of these fields holds a test result in
numerical form. Let's assume BP1 value is 55 and BP2 value is 57.
My problem is that I want to have a report which will only give me the
highest result for that test for each pupil; I need to be able to extract

I was working on some database application and had this small task of
getting the second highes marks in a class. I was able to do that using
subqueries.
Just thinking what is a good way of getting second highest value in an
integer array. One method I know of is to make the 1st pass through the
array and find the highest number. In the second pass we can find the
highest number which is less than the number we obtained in the 1st
pass.

hello folks,
is there a way to retrieve the highest value in the ArrayList?
let say i have a value in the array: {1, 4, 15, 3, 7}
it should return a value 15 as the result.
i've looked at the Sort Method ( ) but doesn't seem like it can do the job
or am i missing something?

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:
