106. Examine the data inthe LIST_PRICE and MIN_PRICE columns of the PRODUCTS table:

LIST_PRICE MIN_PRICE

10000 8000

20000

30000 30000

Which two expressionsgive the same output? (Choose two.)

A.    NVL(NULLIF(list_price, min_price), 0)

B. NVL(COALESCE(list_price,min_price), 0)

C.NVL2(COALESCE(list_price, min_price), min_price, 0)

D.COALESCE(NVL2(list_price, list_price, min_price), 0)

Answer: BD

解析：

引用官方文档：

NULLIF compares expr1 and expr2. If theyare equal, then the function returns null.

If they are not equal, then the functionreturns expr1. You cannot specify the literal

NULL for expr1

NVL lets you replace null (returned as ablank) with a string in the results of a query. If

expr1 is null, then NVL returns expr2. Ifexpr1 is not null, then NVL returns expr1.

COALESCE returns the first non-null expr inthe expression list. You must specify at

least two expressions. If all occurrencesof expr evaluate to null, then the function

returns null.

NVL2 lets you determine the value returned bya query based on whether a specified

expression is null or not null. If expr1 isnot null, then NVL2 returns expr2. If expr1

is null, then NVL2 returns expr3.

107. View the Exhibitand examine the structure and data in the INVOICE table.

Which two SQL statementswould execute successfully? (Choose two.)

A. SELECT AVG(inv_date )

FROM invoice;

B. SELECTMAX(inv_date),MIN(cust_id)

FROM invoice;

C. SELECTMAX(AVG(SYSDATE - inv_date))

FROM invoice;

D. SELECT AVG( inv_date- SYSDATE), AVG(inv_amt)

FROM invoice;

Answer: BD

解析：

引用官方文档：

This function takes as an argument anynumeric data type or any nonnumeric data

type that can be implicitly converted to anumeric data type. The function returns the

same data type as the numeric data type ofthe argument.

所以A错

A later date is considered greater than anearlier one. For example, the date equivalent

of '29-MAR-2005' is less than that of'05-JAN-2006' and '05-JAN-2006 1:35pm' is greater

than '05-JAN-2005 10:09am'.

Oracle compares VARCHAR2 values usingnonpadded

comparison semantics.

所以B正确

C选项中avg得到单一结果，无法使用max函数

所以C错误

D选项中inv_date-sysdate得到数字，所以能使用avg

所以D正确

108. Which twostatements are true regarding the COUNT function? (Choose two.)

A. The COUNT functioncan be used only for CHAR, VARCHAR2, and NUMBER data types.

B. COUNT(*) returns thenumber of rows including duplicate rows and rows containing NULL value in

any of the columns.

C. COUNT(cust_id)returns the number of rows including rows with duplicate customer IDs and NULL

value in the CUST_IDcolumn.

D. COUNT(DISTINCTinv_amt)returns the number of rows excluding rows containing duplicates and

NULL values in theINV_AMT column.

E. A SELECT statementusing the COUNT function with a DISTINCT keyword cannot have a

WHERE clause.

Answer: BD

解析：

A选项，count()还可以用在date等数据类型的行上

B选项，如果count不指定distinct的话，就会返回所有的重复行

C选项，count不会计算列为空的

D选项，明确指定了distinct，就不会返回重复行，当然也不会返回空行

E选项，当然可以使用where，测试：

scott@ORCL>select count(distinct comm)from emp where sal>1000;

COUNT(DISTINCTCOMM)

D选项 在运算符那一边结果一样 所以正确

E选项，引用官方文档：A subquery can contain another subquery. Oracle Databaseimposes no limit on the number of subquery levels in the FROM clause of the top-levelquery. You can nest up to 255 levels of subqueries in the WHERE clause.

所以E选项错误

解析：

C选项，select * from dept where deptno=(select deptno from empwhere empno=7788);

D选项，select * from emp where deptno in (select deptno from empgroup by deptno);

E选项，select * from emp where deptno in (select deptno from empgroup by deptno);

136. View the Exhibitand examine the structure of the PRODUCTS table.

Which two tasks wouldrequire subqueries? (Choose two.)

A. Display the minimumlist price for each product status.

B. Display all supplierswhose list price is less than 1000.

C. Display the number ofproducts whose list price is more than the average list price.

D. Display the totalnumber of products supplied by supplier 102 and have product status as'obsolete'.

E. Display all productswhose minimum list price is more than the average list price of products andhave

the status 'orderable'.

Answer: CE

解析：

C选项，查询平均价格作为子查询

E选项，the average list price of products and have the status'orderable'需要作为子查询

137. View the Exhibitsand examine PRODUCTS and SALES tables.

You issue the followingquery to display product name and the number of times the product has been

sold:

SQL>SELECTp.prod_name, i.item_cnt

FROM (SELECT prod_id,COUNT(*) item_cnt

FROM sales

GROUP BY prod_id) iRIGHT OUTER JOIN products p

ON i.prod_id =p.prod_id;

What happens when theabove statement is executed?

A. The statementexecutes successfully and produces the required output.

B. The statementproduces an error because ITEM_CNT cannot be displayed in the outer query.

C. The statement producesan error because a subquery in the FROM clause and outer-joins cannot be

used together.

D. The statementproduces an error because the GROUP BY clause cannot be used in a subquery inthe

FROM clause.

Answer: A

解析：

将 SELECT prod_id, COUNT(*) item_cnt

FROM sales

GROUP BY prod_id

的查询结果作为一张表和product表右外连接 ，可以得到product中每个产品的销售次数

138. Which statement istrue regarding subqueries?

A. The LIKE operatorcannot be used with single- row subqueries.

B. The NOT IN operatoris equivalent to IS NULL with single- row subqueries.

C. =ANY and =ALLoperators have the same functionality in multiple- row subqueries.

D. The NOT operator canbe used with IN, ANY, and ALL operators in multiple- row subqueries.

Answer: D

解析：

A选项，测试： scott@ORCL>select * from emp where ename like (selectename from emp where empno=7788);

EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR HIREDATE        SAL       COMM    DEPTNO

---------- ------------------- ---------- -------- ---------- ---------- ----------

7788 SCOTT      ANALYST         7566 19-04-87       1850                    20

B选项，不相等，not in 如果不处理子查询中的空值，就会全部返回为空

C选项，功能不一样，any表示已任意一个，all表示全部

139. Which threestatements are true about multiple-row subqueries? (Choose three.)

A. They can contain asubquery within a subquery.

B. They can returnmultiple columns as well as rows.

D. They can return onlyone column but multiple rows.

E. They can containgroup functions and GROUP BY and HAVING clauses.

F. They can containgroup functions and the GROUP BY clause, but not the HAVING clause.

Answer: ABE

解析：

C选项，子查询可以嵌套

应用官方文档：

A subquery can containanother subquery. Oracle Database imposes no limit on the

number of subquerylevels in the FROM clause of the top-level query. You can nest up

to 255 levels ofsubqueries in the WHERE clause

D选项，可以返回多列多行

F选项，测试：

scott@ORCL>select *from emp where job in(select job from emp group by job having job like 'S%');

EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR HIREDATE        SAL       COMM    DEPTNO

---------- ------------------- ---------- -------- ---------- ---------- ----------

7844 TURNER     SALESMAN        7698 08-09-81       1500          0         30

7654 MARTIN     SALESMAN        7698 28-09-81       1250       1400         30

140. Examine thestructure of the PRODUCTS table:

name Null Type

PROD_ID NOT NULLNUMBER(4)

PROD_NAME VARCHAR2(20)

PROD_STATUS VARCHAR2(6)

QTY_IN_HAND NUMBER(8,2)

UNIT_PRICE NUMBER(10,2)

You want to display thenames of the products that have the highest total value for UNIT_PRICE *

QTY_IN_HAND.

Which SQL statementgives the required output?

A. SELECT prod_name

FROM products

WHERE (unit_price *qty_in_hand) = (SELECT MAX(unit_price * qty_in_hand)

FROM products);

B. SELECT prod_name

FROM products

WHERE (unit_price *qty_in_hand) = (SELECT MAX(unit_price * qty_in_hand)

FROM products

GROUP BY prod_name);

C. SELECT prod_name

FROM products

GROUP BY prod_name

HAVING MAX(unit_price *qty_in_hand) = (SELECT MAX(unit_price * qty_in_hand)

FROM products

GROUP BY prod_name);

D. SELECT prod_name

FROM products

WHERE (unit_price *qty_in_hand) = (SELECT MAX(SUM(unit_price * qty_in_hand))

FROM products)

GROUP BY prod_name;

Answer: A

解析：

(SELECT MAX(unit_price* qty_in_hand) FROM products) 得到unit_price *qty_in_hand的最大值

SELECT prod_name

FROM products

WHERE (unit_price* qty_in_hand) = (SELECT MAX(unit_price * qty_in_hand)

FROM products);

(unit_price *qty_in_hand) =最大值 所以能得到正确的结果
