Select rows where price didn't change

问题

Suppose you have a table like (am using SQL Server 2008, no audit log - table is HUGE):

 SecID | Date    | Price
 1       1/1/11      10
 1       1/2/11      10
 1       1/3/11      5
 1       1/4/11      10
 1       1/5/11      10

Suppose this table is HUGE (millions of rows for different secIDs and Date) - I would like to return the records when the price changed (looking for something better than using a cursor and iterating):

Am trying to figure out how to get:

 SecID | StartDate | EndDate | Price
 1        1/1/11      1/2/11    10
 1        1/3/11      1/3/11    5
 1        1/4/11      1/5/11    10

i.e. another way to look at it is that I am looking for a range of dates where the price has stayed the same.

This is an "islands" problem.

declare @Yourtable table
 (SecID int, Date Date, Price int)

 INSERT INTO @Yourtable
SELECT 1,GETDATE()-5,10 union all
SELECT 1,GETDATE()-4,10 union all
SELECT 1,GETDATE()-3,5 union all
SELECT 1,GETDATE()-2,10 union all
SELECT 1,GETDATE()-1, 10

;WITH cte AS
(
SELECT SecID,Date,Price,
       ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY SecID ORDER BY Date) -
       ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY Price, SecID ORDER BY Date) AS Grp
FROM @Yourtable
)
SELECT SecID,Price, MIN(Date) StartDate, MAX(Date) EndDate
FROM cte
GROUP BY SecID, Grp, Price
ORDER BY SecID,  MIN(Date)

If the value does not change, the std deviation will be zero

select secId
  from ...
 group by secId
having count(*) = 1  
    OR stdev(price) = 0

回答3:

I think this should work

SELECT SecID, Min(Date) AS StartDate, Max(Date) AS EndDate, Price FROM BigTable GROUP BY SecID, EndDate Having Min(Date) != MAx(Date) And Date != NULL
