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!

Oracle two distinct columns but rows from another table needed in query too Not sure about using MAX on the other columns

Asked by pattisp1 in Oracle 10.x, SQL Query Syntax

Tags: ,

I need to create and maintain a new table that combines data from two tables.  Table A has three of the fields required for this new table: serial_no, access_code  and depot.   Table B has one value needed for the new table VIN.   The value of the vin is actually contains the values of the serial_no (substring of characters 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 of the VIN), the access_code (substring of values in 2 and 3 of the VIN) and the depot which is values 12 and 13 of the VIN).    

The requirements of the new table is it has serial_no, access_code, depot and VIN.  The serial_no and access_code combination must be unique.

I saw several examples that use the MAX of the fields that are not grouped by (in my case I would group by serial_no and access_code) but I'm not sure in this case.    

What is the best way to create this table and to maintain it for the future when table A and table B receive new data loads.

Thank you,
