Example:
SELECT partnumber, manufacturer, condition, SUM(qty), AVG(price), description FROM parts WHERE [something] GROUP BY partnumber, manufacturer, condition I have some descriptions that are blank, and there can be many partnumber, manufacturer, condition values, and on the group it seems to take the first description available, which can be blank. Id like to get the longest description available.
i tried this:
MAX(LENGTH(description)) however that returns the number of characters in the string. Is it possible to do what im trying to do in MySQL?

(SELECT min(len(<string_column>)) FROM<table_name> ) ; Example : SELECT TOP 1 * FROM friends WHERE len(firstName) = (SELECT min(len(firstName)) FROM friends);
Use Python's built-in max() function with a key argument to find the longest string in a list. Call max(lst, key=len) to return the longest string in lst using the built-in len() function to associate the weight of each string—the longest string will be the maximum.
SQL Server LEN() Function The LEN() function returns the length of a string. Note: Trailing spaces at the end of the string is not included when calculating the length. However, leading spaces at the start of the string is included when calculating the length.
select city, length(city) from (select city from STATION order by length(city) DESC, city ASC) where rownum = 1 union select city, length(city) from (select city from STATION order by length(city), city ASC) where rownum = 1; The idea is to get the longest and shortest city then union them into one result.
Try ORDER BY LENGTH(description) DESC and use LIMIT 1 to only get the largest.

ORDER BY LENGTH(description) DESC LIMIT 1 This will sort the results from longest to shortest and give the first result (longest.)
