如何查找一年內參演電影最多的演員

Question

我得到了一個包含以下表格的 IMDB 數據庫：

movies    
    +-------+
    | Field | 
    +-------+
    | id    | 
    | title | 
    | year  | 
    | genre | 
    +-------+

actors
+-----------+
| Field     |
+-----------+
| id        | 
| full_name | 
| gender    |
+-----------+
cast
+--------
| Field    | 
+----------+
| actor_id | 
| movie_id | 
| salary   |
+----------+

我正在尋找一年內參演電影最多的演員。 我試過了

select full_name
     , count(title)
     , year 
  from actors 
  join cast 
    on cast.actor_id = actors.id 
  join movies 
    on movies.id = cast.movie_id 
 group 
    by year 
 order 
    by count(title)

這就是我得到的

+--------------------+--------------+------+
| full_name          | count(title) | year |
+--------------------+--------------+------+
| Abraham Aronofsky  |           28 | 1998 |
| William Armstrong  |           30 | 1986 |
| Kevin Bacon        |           39 | 1984 |
| J. Todd Anderson   |           40 | 1996 |
| Kevin Bacon        |           43 | 1978 |
| Kevin Bacon        |           49 | 1987 |
| Rudy Bond          |           54 | 1972 |
| Kevin Bacon        |           59 | 1992 |
| Dean Alexandrou    |           62 | 2005 |
| Geoffrey Arend     |           79 | 2004 |
| Billy Dee Williams |           93 | 1983 |
| Charles Adler      |           98 | 1989 |
| Graham Ashley      |          104 | 1977 |
| Carl Allen         |          110 | 1994 |
| Lewis Abernathy    |          130 | 1997 |
| Steve Altes        |          149 | 2000 |
| van Allen          |          157 | 1995 |
| David Andrews      |          162 | 1999 |
| Michael Bowen      |          173 | 2003 |
| Casey Affleck      |          193 | 2001 |
| Henri Alciatore    |          230 | 1991 |
+--------------------+--------------+------+

但我懷疑這只是列出了在某一年有多少演員參與了任何電影，而不是我想要完成的事情。 有任何想法嗎？

Answer 1

在下面使用 HAVING 和 MAX 函數試試這個：

select full_name, count(title), year 
from actors 
join cast on cast.actor_id=actors.id 
join movies on movies.id=cast.movie_id 
group by year having count(title)=( 
select max(title_count) 
from ( 
full_name, count(title) title_count, year 
from actors 
join cast on cast.actor_id=actors.id 
join movies on movies.id=cast.movie_id 
group by year));

Answer 2

如果您正在運行 MySQL 8.0，您可以使用聚合來計算每個演員每年投了多少部電影，以及 window function rank()來識別最活躍的演員（包括：）

select *
from (
    select 
        a.full_name, 
        m.year, 
        count(*) no_movies, 
        rank() over(partition by m.year order by count(*) desc) rn
    from actors a
    inner join cast c on c.actor_id = a.id
    inner join movie m on m.id = c.movie_id
    group by a.id, a.full_name, m.year
) t
where rn = 1
order by year

在早期版本中，它有點復雜。 一種選擇使用相關子查詢進行過濾：

select 
    a.full_name, 
    m.year, 
    count(*) no_movies
from actors a
inner join cast c on c.actor_id = a.id
inner join movie m on m.id = c.movie_id
group by a.id, a.full_name, m.year
having count(*) = (
    select count(*)
    from cast c1
    inner join movie m1 on m1.id = c1.movie_id
    where c1.year = c.year
    group by c.actor_id
    order by count(*) desc
    limit 1
)
