SQL query with distinct and sum

Question

I have the following medleys table that combines colors, fruits and ratings:

[medleys]
medley_id   |   co         


        

Answer 1

SELECT color, fruit, sum(rating)
FROM medleys
GROUP BY color, fruit

Distinct is used to select distinct elements, nothing more, while you want to aggregate and for that you need GROUP BY and aggregation functions (SUM).
