Count how many submissions per score

Advertisements

Recently, we had access to a database that contained the scores of a programming competitions system.
The database contained several contests, each contest contained several challenges and any competitor could make multiple submissions.
We wanted to extract a couple of charts showing

The following code will return the number of submissions per score per challenge per contest.


SELECT contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(score, 1), COUNT(*)
FROM submissions
GROUP BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(score, 1)
ORDER BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(score, 1);

The next one will return the number of submissions per score per challenge per contest while filtering out the best submission (max score) per contestant per challenge per contest:


SELECT contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(max_score, 1), COUNT(*)
FROM
(
  SELECT contest_id, challenge_id, competitor_id, MAX(score) AS max_score
  FROM submissions
  GROUP BY contest_id, challenge_id, competitor_id
) AS max_scores
GROUP BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(max_score, 1)
ORDER BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(max_score, 1);
