Calculating percentages with GROUP BY query

Question

I have a table with 3 columns which looks like this:

File    User     Rating (1-5)
------------------------------
00001    1        3
00002    1        4
000         


        

Answer 1

WITH t1 AS 
 (SELECT User, Rating, Count(*) AS n 
  FROM your_table
  GROUP BY User, Rating)
SELECT User, Rating, n, 
       (0.0+n)/(COUNT(*) OVER (PARTITION BY User)) -- no integer divide!
FROM t1;

Or

SELECT User, Rating, Count(*) OVER w_user_rating AS n, 
        (0.0+Count(*) OVER w_user_rating)/(Count(*) OVER (PARTITION BY User)) AS pct
FROM your_table
WINDOW w_user_rating AS (PARTITION BY User, Rating);

I would see if one of these or the other yields a better query plan with the appropriate tool for your RDBMS.
