[英]How do I find the closest number across columns?
I have this table:我有这张桌子:
col_1 | col_2 | col_3 | compare
------+-------+-------+--------
1.1 | 2.1 | 3.1 | 2
------+-------+-------+--------
10 | 9 | 1 | 15
I want to derive a new column choice indicating the column closest to the compare value:我想派生一个新的列选择,指示最接近比较值的列:
col_1 | col_2 | col_3 | compare | choice
------+-------+-------+---------+-------
1.1 | 2.1 | 3.1 | 2 | col_2
------+-------+-------+---------+-------
10 | 9 | 1 | 15 | col_1
Choice refers to the column where cell value is closest to the compare value.选择是指单元格值最接近比较值的列。
I think the simplest method is apply
:我认为最简单的方法是
apply
:
select t.*, v.which as choice
from t cross apply
(select top (1) v.*
from (values ('col_1', col_1), ('col_2', col_2), ('col_3', col_3)
) v(which, val)
order by abs(v.val - t.compare)
) v;
In the event of ties, this returns an arbitrary closest column.在平局的情况下,这将返回任意最近的列。
You can also use case
expressions, but that gets complicated.您也可以使用
case
表达式,但这会变得复杂。 With no NULL
values:没有
NULL
值:
select t.*,
(case when abs(compare - col_1) <= abs(compare - col_3) and
abs(compare - col_1) <= abs(compare - col_3)
then 'col_1'
when abs(compare - col_2) <= abs(compare - col_3)
then 'col_2'
else 'col_3'
end) as choice
from t;
In the event of ties, this returns the first column.如果出现平局,则返回第一列。
