用一条 UPDATE 语句,在不使用中间临时表的情况下,将 salary 表中 sex 的值反转。
原题
Given a table salary, such as the one below, that has m=male and f=female values. Swap all f and m values (i.e., change all f values to m and vice versa) with a single update query and no intermediate temp table.
For example:
id | name | sex | salary |
---|---|---|---|
1 | A | m | 2500 |
2 | B | f | 1500 |
3 | C | m | 5500 |
4 | D | f | 500 |
After running your query, the above salary table should have the following rows:
id | name | sex | salary |
---|---|---|---|
1 | A | f | 2500 |
2 | B | m | 1500 |
3 | C | f | 5500 |
4 | D | m | 500 |
SQL
1UPDATE salary
2SET
3 sex = IF(sex='f', 'm', 'f');
OR
1UPDATE salary
2SET
3 sex = CASE sex
4 WHEN 'f' THEN 'm'
5 ELSE 'f'
6 END;
