MySQL Sum()函式

MySQL的Sum()函式是用來找出所有記錄的一個欄位的總和。

要理解SUM()函式，考慮一個employee_tbl表，它有以下記錄：

mysql> SELECT * FROM employee_tbl;
+------+------+------------+--------------------+
| id   | name | work_date  | daily_typing_pages |
+------+------+------------+--------------------+
|    1 | John | 2007-01-24 |                250 |
|    2 | Ram  | 2007-05-27 |                220 |
|    3 | Jack | 2007-05-06 |                170 |
|    3 | Jack | 2007-04-06 |                100 |
|    4 | Jill | 2007-04-06 |                220 |
|    5 | Zara | 2007-06-06 |                300 |
|    5 | Zara | 2007-02-06 |                350 |
+------+------+------------+--------------------+
7 rows in set (0.00 sec)

現在，假設要在上述表折基礎上計算所有dialy_typing_pages欄位值的總和，那麼可以使用下面的命令：

mysql> SELECT SUM(daily_typing_pages)
    -> FROM employee_tbl;
+-------------------------+
| SUM(daily_typing_pages) |
+-------------------------+
|                    1610 |
+-------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT name, SUM(daily_typing_pages)
    -> FROM employee_tbl GROUP BY name;
+------+-------------------------+
| name | SUM(daily_typing_pages) |
+------+-------------------------+
| Jack |                     270 |
| Jill |                     220 |
| John |                     250 |
| Ram  |                     220 |
| Zara |                     650 |
+------+-------------------------+
5 rows in set (0.17 sec)
