I have a table that can have repeated values for a particular non-key column field. How do I write a SQL query usin

Answer 1

You should use groupby. In Query Builder you can do it this way:

$users = DB::table('users')
            ->select('id','name', 'email')
            ->groupBy('name')
            ->get();
