SQL Queries for Contest Data Analysis

The document contains three SQL query questions related to contests, submissions, and student salaries. The first question requires a query to summarize contest statistics while excluding contests with no submissions. The second question focuses on identifying unique hackers and the one with the most submissions during a specific contest period, and the third question involves comparing student salaries based on their best friends' offers.

Question : 01

Samantha interviews many candidates from different colleges using coding challenges and
contests. Write a query to print the contest_id, hacker_id, name, and the sums of
total_submissions, total_accepted_submissions, total_views, and total_unique_views for
each contest sorted by contest_id. Exclude the contest from the result if all four sums are 0 .

Note: A specific contest can be used to screen candidates at more than one college, but each
college only holds a screening contest.

Contests Table: The contest_id is the id of the contest, hacker_id is the id of the hacker who
created the contest, and name is the name of the hacker.

Colleges Table: The college_id is the id of the college, and contest_id is the id of the contest
that Samantha used to screen the candidates.

Challenges Table: The challenge_id is the id of the challenge that belongs to one of the
contests whose contest_id Samantha forgot, and college_id is the id of the college where the
challenge was given to candidates.
View_Stats Table: The challenge_id is the id of the challenge, total_views is the number of
times the challenge was viewed by candidates, and total_unique_views is the number of times
the challenge was viewed by unique candidates.

Submission_Stats Table: The challenge_id is the id of the challenge, total_submissions is the


number of submissions for the challenge, and total_accepted_submission is the number of
submissions that achieved full scores.
Question : 02

Julia conducted a 15 days of learning SQL contest. The start date of the contest was March 01,
2025 and the end date was March 15, 2025. Write a query to print the total number of unique
hackers who made at least 1 submission each day (starting on the first day of the contest), and
find the hacker_id and name of the hacker who made the maximum number of submissions
each day. If more than one such hacker has a maximum number of submissions, print the
lowest hacker_id. The query should print this information for each day of the contest, sorted
by the date.

The following tables hold contest data:

Hackers Table: The hacker_id is the id of the hacker, and name is the name of the hacker.
Submissions Table: The submission_date is the date of the submission, submission_id is the
id of the submission, hacker_id is the id of the hacker who made the submission, and score is
the score of the submission.
Question : 03

You are given three tables: Students, Friends and Packages. Students contain two columns: ID
and Name. Friends contains two columns: ID and Friend_ID (ID of the ONLY best friend).
Packages contain two columns: ID and Salary (offered salary in $ thousands per month).

Write a query to output the names of those students whose best friends got offered a higher
salary than them. Names must be ordered by the salary amount offered to the best friends. It is
guaranteed that no two students get the same salary offer.
