I have a table
with col A and col B . Col A and Col B can have repetitive values. I want to select distinct values from Col A and Col B individually and populate them in 1 column as unique values. How do I do that?
Example
col_a | col_b
------+------
1 | 3
2 | 4
3 | 5
4 | 7
5 | 8
6 |
I want to extract
the total unique values in a table that says 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
. How do I do that?
You can use a UNION to combine two results with each column. A UNION
will remove duplicates automatically:
select col_a as value
from the_table
union
select col_b
from the_table;
One simple approach is to use a union:
SELECT DISTINCT val
FROM
(
SELECT A AS val FROM yourTable
UNION ALL
SELECT B FROM yourTable
) t;
