Syntax error Display records with more than two occurrences in MySQL?

Display records with more than two occurrences in MySQL?



For this, you can use GROUP BY HAVING clause. Let us first create a table −

mysql> create table DemoTable
   -> (
   -> Id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
   -> Subject varchar(100)
   -> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.53 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert command −

mysql> insert into DemoTable(Subject) values('MySQL');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)

mysql> insert into DemoTable(Subject) values('MongoDB');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.09 sec)

mysql> insert into DemoTable(Subject) values('MySQL');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.10 sec)

mysql> insert into DemoTable(Subject) values('Java');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.56 sec)

mysql> insert into DemoTable(Subject) values('SQL Server');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)

mysql> insert into DemoTable(Subject) values('MongoDB');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)

mysql> insert into DemoTable(Subject) values('MySQL');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.48 sec)

Display all records from the table using select statement −

mysql> select *from DemoTable;

Output

+----+------------+
| Id | Subject    |
+----+------------+
| 1  | MySQL      |
| 2  | MongoDB    |
| 3  | MySQL      |
| 4  | Java       |
| 5  | SQL Server |
| 6  | MongoDB    |
| 7  | MySQL      |
+----+------------+
7 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Following is the query to display distinct records with more than 2 occurrences in MySQL.

mysql> select Subject,count(Subject) freq from DemoTable
   -> group by Subject
   -> having count(Subject) > 2;

Output

+---------+------+
| Subject | freq |
+---------+------+
| MySQL   | 3    |
+---------+------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
