In SQL, how can you “group by” in ranges?

Question

Suppose I have a table with a numeric column (lets call it \"score\").

I\'d like to generate a table of counts, that shows how many times scores appeared in each ran

Answer 1

Perhaps you're asking about keeping such things going...

Of course you'll invoke a full table scan for the queries and if the table containing the scores that need to be tallied (aggregations) is large you might want a better performing solution, you can create a secondary table and use rules, such as on insert - you might look into it.

Not all RDBMS engines have rules, though!
