I have a Postgre database that has say 10 columns. The fifth column is called column5
. There are 100 rows in the database and possible values of column5
are c5value1, c5value2, c5value3...c5value29, c5value30
. I would like to print out a table that shows how many times each value occurs.
So the table would look like this:
Value(of column5) number of occurrences of the value c5value1 1 c5value2 5 c5value3 3 c5value4 9 c5value5 1 c5value6 1 . . . . . .
What is the command that does that?
To count the number of different values that are stored in a given column, you simply need to designate the column you pass in to the COUNT function as DISTINCT . When given a column, COUNT returns the number of values in that column. Combining this with DISTINCT returns only the number of unique (and non-NULL) values.
The following is the syntax to get the count. mysql> SELECT name,COUNT(1) as OccurenceValue FROM DistinctDemo1 GROUP BY name ORDER BY OccurenceValue; Here is the output.
You can use the =UNIQUE() and =COUNTIF() functions to count the number of occurrences of different values in a column in Excel.
How do you Count the Number of Occurrences in a data frame? To count the number of occurrences in e.g. a column in a dataframe you can use Pandas value_counts() method. For example, if you type df['condition']. value_counts() you will get the frequency of each unique value in the column “condition”.
Group by the column you are interested in and then use count to get the number of rows in each group:
SELECT column5, COUNT(*) FROM table1 GROUP BY column5
