SQL select MAX(COUNT)

Question

I\'m trying to select the user who has the MAX microposts count:

SELECT \"name\", count(*) FROM \"users\" 
  INNER JOIN \"microposts\" ON \"microposts\".\"us         


        

Answer 1

I'd try with a ORDER BY max DESC LIMIT 1, where maximum is the count(*) field. Something like:

SELECT "name", count(*) maximum FROM "users" 
   INNER JOIN "microposts" ON "microposts"."user_id" = "users"."id" 
GROUP BY users.id 
ORDER BY maximum DESC 
LIMIT 1

I dont' have mysql available now, so I'm doing this on the paper (and it might not work), but it's just an orientation.
