[Solved] SQL Query to Transpose Column Counts to Row Counts

by


These type of queries are easier to make with an aim of GROUP BY, like this:

Select 
case when profile.foo ~* '5.0.2195' then 'Win2k'
     when profile.foo ~* '5.1.2600' then 'WinXP' 
     when profile.foo ~* '5.2.3790' then 'W2k3'
     when (profile.foo ~* '6.0.6000'
        or profile.foo ~* '6.0.6001'
        or profile.foo ~* '6.0.6002') 
        then 'Vista'
     when (profile.foo ~* '6.1.7600'
        or profile.foo ~* '6.1.7601')
        then 'Win7'
     when profile.foo ~* '6.2.9200' then 'Win8'
     when (profile.foo ~* '6.3.9200'
        or profile.foo ~* '6.3.9600')
        then 'Win8.1' ELSE 'Other' END as type,
     count(*) as cnt
From profile
GROUP BY 1

As commented below this query will work for mutually exclusive cases, i.e. when profile.foo contains a value representing one OS per row
