How to extract digit from string in SQL? - amazon-web-services

I have a string which has at least one digit per bracket. Now, I want to extract the digit(s). How do I do this in Redshift sql?
ColumnA ColumnB (output)
(,,,3,) 3
(2,,,) 2
(,,,1) 1
(1,,,3) 13

You could use REGEXP_REPLACE. Here's a snippet:
CREATE TABLE x (col1 varchar(255))
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('(,,,3,)'),('(2,,,)'),('(,,,1)'),('(1,,,3)');
select col1,
regexp_replace(col1,'[^\d]','','g') as col2
from x;
col1
col2
(,,,3,)
3
(2,,,)
2
(,,,1)
1
(1,,,3)
13
Try it in SQLFiddle

Jakob's answer would work. You can also do the same thing with REPLACE:
CREATE TABLE x (col1 varchar(255))
INSERT INTO x VALUES ('(,,,3,)'),('(2,,,)'),('(,,,1)'),('(1,,,3)')
SELECT REPLACE(
REPLACE(
REPLACE(
col1, ',', ''
) ,')', ''
), '(', ''
) FROM x
replace
3
2
1
13

search substring in string

I'm looking for a regexp to get the correct output
For my example:
SELECT regexp_substr('brablcdefghig', '[^(bl)]+$') FROM dual;
I expect evth what is follow 'bl': cdefghig and it's OK,
But when I modify input and add 'b' charcter I've NULL in output why?
SELECT regexp_substr('brablcdefghigb', '[^(bl)]+$') FROM dual;
That's a simple substr + instr; you don't need regular expressions. If it has to be regexp, see lines #8 and 9
SQL> with test (id, col) as
2 (select 1, 'brablcdefghig' from dual union all
3 select 2, 'brablcdefghigb' from dual
4 )
5 select id,
6 col,
7 substr(col, instr(col, 'bl') + 2) result,
8 regexp_substr(replace(col, 'bl', '#'), '[^#]+$') result2,
9 regexp_replace(col, '.+bl', '') result3
10 from test;
ID COL RESULT RESULT2 RESULT3
---------- -------------- ---------- ---------- ----------
1 brablcdefghig cdefghig cdefghig cdefghig
2 brablcdefghigb cdefghigb cdefghigb cdefghigb

Oracle - split the string by comma and get the last sub-str

I wanted to write an Oracle query to extract only the last sub-string of comma separated string like below:
DEST = "1,MMA SALAI,ARIANKUPAM,CITY CENTRE,G12 47H"
I am interested in only G12. How do I get in the Oracle query?
Thanks
Try
REGEXP_SUBSTR('1,MMA SALAI,ARIANKUPAM,CITY CENTRE,G12 47H', '[^,]+$')
But that will fetch G12 47H. You may consider
REGEXP_SUBSTR('1,MMA SALAI,ARIANKUPAM,CITY CENTRE,G12 47H', '([^, ]+)( +[^,]*)?$', 1,1,NULL,1)
This will give G12.
A little bit of substringing (see comments within the code):
SQL> with test (dest) as
2 (select '1,MMA SALAI,ARIANKUPAM,CITY CENTRE,G12 47H' from dual)
3 select
4 regexp_substr(dest, --> out of the DEST, give me ...
5 '\w+', --> ... the first word that begins right after ...
6 instr(dest, ',', 1, regexp_count(dest, ',')) + 1 --> ... postition of the last
7 ) result --> comma in the source string
8 from test;
RESULT
--------------------
G12
SQL>
Or, by splitting the comma-separated values into rows:
SQL> with test (dest) as
2 (select '1,MMA SALAI,ARIANKUPAM,CITY CENTRE,G12 47H' from dual)
3 select regexp_substr(col, '\w+') result
4 from (select regexp_substr(dest, '[^,]+', 1, level) col, --> split column to rows
5 row_number() over (order by level desc) rn --> the last row will be RN = 1
6 from test
7 connect by level <= regexp_count(dest, ',') + 1
8 )
9 where rn = 1;
RESULT
--------------------
G12

I want to know how to execute CONNECT BY REGEXP in Google Big query

I have following statement in oracle sql I want to run this in Google Big Query.
CONNECT BY REGEXP_SUBSTR(VALUE, '[^,]+', 1, LEVEL) IS NOT NULL)
How can I run above code in Big query?
I am guessing here - but usually this construct is used for so called string decomposition
So, in BigQuery you can use SPLIT(value) or REGEXP_EXTRACT_ALL(value, r'[^,]+') for this as in below examples
#standardSQL
WITH `project.dataset.table` AS (
SELECT 1 id, '1,2,3,4,5,6,7' AS value UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'a,b,c,d'
)
SELECT id, SPLIT(value) value
FROM `project.dataset.table`
or
#standardSQL
WITH `project.dataset.table` AS (
SELECT 1 id, '1,2,3,4,5,6,7' AS value UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'a,b,c,d'
)
SELECT id, REGEXP_EXTRACT_ALL(value, r'[^,]+') value
FROM `project.dataset.table`
both above query will return
Row id value
1 1 1
2
3
4
5
6
7
2 2 a
b
c
d
Here, as you can see - value in each row gets split into array of elements but still in the same row
To flatten result you can further use UNNEST() as in below examples
#standardSQL
WITH `project.dataset.table` AS (
SELECT 1 id, '1,2,3,4,5,6,7' AS value UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'a,b,c,d'
)
SELECT id, value
FROM `project.dataset.table`,
UNNEST(SPLIT(value)) value
or
#standardSQL
WITH `project.dataset.table` AS (
SELECT 1 id, '1,2,3,4,5,6,7' AS value UNION ALL
SELECT 2, 'a,b,c,d'
)
SELECT id, value
FROM `project.dataset.table`,
UNNEST(REGEXP_EXTRACT_ALL(value, r'[^,]+')) value
both return below result (with all extracted elements in separate row)
Row id value
1 1 1
2 1 2
3 1 3
4 1 4
5 1 5
6 1 6
7 1 7
8 2 a
9 2 b
10 2 c
11 2 d

PowerBI Dax Query - Match a Value and get its Maximum Value

I want to match the value in Column1 of one table with another and get the maximum value of column2.
For Example I have two tables,
Table 1
Col1 Col2
AA 17
AA 20
AB 10
AB 21
Table 2
Col1 Col2
AA ?
AB ?
I want my output to look like this,
Col1 Col2
AA 20
AB 21
I have tried,
Col2 = Max(Table1[col2])
but it didn't help. Thanks. Please share your thoughts.
You can use the following DAX:
Col2 =
CALCULATE(
MAX(Table1[Col2]),
FILTER(
Table1,
Table1[Col1] = Table2[Col1]
)
)
Result:

Extract string from a large string oracle regexp

I have String as below.
select b.col1,a.col2,lower(a.col3) from table1 a inner join table2 b on a.col = b.col and a.col = b.col
inner join (select col1, col2, col3,col4 from tablename ) c on a.col1=b.col2
where
a.col = 'value'
Output need to be table1,table2 and tablename from above string. please let me know the regex to get the result.
Should be a simple one :-)

Brief explanation, so that OP/even others might find it useful :
The REGEXP_SUBSTR looks for the words 'table', it could be followed
by a number or string like 1,2, name etc.
To find all such words, I used connect by level technique, but it
gives the output in different rows.
Finally, to put them in a single row as comma separated values, I
used LISTAGG.
Oh yes, and that q'[]' is the string literal technique.
