SQL - 连接表后排除 Null 个值

Question

我是编程和学习 SQL 的新手。我试图在 ORDER BY ... DESC 之后排除 NULL 值。 你能帮忙解决这个问题吗？ 也不确定我是否应该使用 WHERE 或 HAVING，

-- Which director has the highest total domestic takings
SELECT d.first_name, d.last_name, SUM(mr.domestic_takings) AS total_dom_takings
FROM directors d
-- *** WHERE/HAVING mr.domestic_takings IS NOT NULL ***
JOIN movies mo ON d.director_id = mo.director_id
JOIN movie_revenues mr ON mo.movie_id = mr.movie_id
GROUP BY d.first_name, d.last_name
ORDER BY total_dom_takings DESC;

Answer 1

尝试在 JOIN 之后编写 WHERE 子句：

SELECT d.first_name, d.last_name, SUM(mr.domestic_takings) AS total_dom_takings
FROM directors d
JOIN movies mo ON d.director_id = mo.director_id
JOIN movie_revenues mr ON mo.movie_id = mr.movie_id
WHERE mr.domestic_takings IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY d.first_name, d.last_name
ORDER BY total_dom_takings DESC;

Answer 2

您可以完全省略WHERE子句。

大多数聚合函数，其中sum ，无论如何都会忽略 NULL arguments 。
