The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Help with MYSQL Query

Asked by kinko899 in MySQL Server

Tags: group_by, max

Hi...I am trying to write a query in MYSQL that will review my ATTENDS_EXAM table and determine which doctor has examined the most patients this week and display how many patients he or she examined.

I created the following query and it displays the results but it does it for all of the doctors and not just the one with the maximum exams.  Below is my query:

SELECT Doctor_Name, Count(Doctor_Name)
FROM ATTENDS_EXAM
WHERE Examination_Date > 20041017
GROUP BY Doctor_Name;

This is my output from my query:

Doctor_Name Count(Doctor_Name)
Dr. Smith                2
Dr. Jones                3

I am confused on how to go about modifying this query so it will only print out the results for Dr. Jones as he performed the most exams this week ?

I created the following two queries but none of them seem to work:

SELECT Doctor_Name
FROM ATTENDS_EXAM
WHERE Examination_Date > 20041017
GROUP_BY Doctor_Name
HAVING Max(Count(Doctor_Name));

SELECT Doctor_Name
FROM ATTENDS_EXAM
WHERE Examination_Date > 20041017 AND count(Doctor_Name) = Max(Count(Doctor_Name))
GROUP_BY Doctor_Name

SELECT Doctor_Name
FROM ATTENDS_EXAM
WHERE Examination_Date > 20041017 AND count(Doctor_Name) is Max(Count(Doctor_Name))
GROUP_BY Doctor_Name

None of these 3 queries seemed to work and I got error messages.  Any have some suggestions ?

Thanks :-)
