I need some help with a SQL query. I have a table of courses and a table that contains user id and course id, denoting courses that user has taken (might not have taken any; no entry in that table for that user id).
I need a query to return the list of courses not taken.
Course Category table
CategoryID
Caegory
Courses table
CourseID
CategoryID
CourseName
...
UserCourse table
UserID
CourseID
you can use not exists
Select *
From Courses c
Where Not Exists (Select 1 From UserCourse uc Where uc.CourseID = c.CourseID)
This will just list the course
select *
from Courses C
Left join CourseCategory cc on
cc.CategoryID = c.CategoryID
where CourseID not in (Select CourseID from UserCourse where UserID = 14)
what i need is for a given user id and course category, what courses within that category have not been taken by this user
(This should have been in the request by the way.)
So:
courses
.The query:
select *
from courses
where categoryid = 123
and courseid not in (select courseid from usercourse where userid = 456);
Another way of writing same query, which will perform faster.
select C.CourseID,C.CategoryID
from Courses C
Left join CourseCategory cc on
cc.CategoryID = c.CategoryID
left join UserCourse uc
on C.CourseID=uc.CourseID
where uc.CourseID is null
