Обсуждение: Aggregate question

I'm sorry for the simple question, but....  I have a table (description
given below) that I want to do something like:

select oligo,target_id,max(2*matches-mismatch) as "score" from hit
natural join oligo where oligo like 'H200000%' group by
oligo,target_id;


    oligo    |            target_id            | score
------------+---------------------------------+-------
  H200000001 | ENST00000286479                 |   138
  H200000001 | gi|4557782|ref|NM_000015.1|     |   138

  H200000007 | ENST00000327775                 |    96  <---I don't want

  H200000007 | gi|4504012|ref|NM_000170.1|     |   138
  H200000008 | ENST00000278888                 |   138

  H200000010 | gi|6806892|ref|NM_000595.2|     |   138

But, what I actually want is only those target_ids that reach the max
score like:


    oligo    |            target_id            | score
------------+---------------------------------+-------
  H200000001 | ENST00000286479                 |   138

  H200000005 | ENST00000206765                 |   138

  H200000007 | gi|4504012|ref|NM_000170.1|     |   138
  H200000008 | ENST00000278888                 |   138
  H200000008 | gi|23397640|ref|NM_000139.2|    |   138
  H200000010 | ENST00000309399                 |   138
  H200000010 | gi|6806892|ref|NM_000595.2|     |   138

I just can't seem to quite get it.

Thanks,

The way to restrict the GROUP BY output is with a HAVING clause.  I
think it should go something like this:

select oligo,target_id,max(2*matches-mismatch) as "score" from hit
natural join oligo where oligo like 'H200000%' group by oligo,target_id
HAVING max(2*matches-mismatch) = (SELECT max(2*matches-mismatch) from
hit);

I don't think you can use score as a column name in the having clause,
which is why I have repeated the original definition of that column.
