I have 2 tables: circuit(id_circuit, distance) and circuit_langue(id_circuit_language, #id_circuit, language, title).
I want to get the list of circuit which have more than 2 languages.

  • In this case the query is the same and works the same in Oracle or MySQL database @ThorstenKettner so the tags really does not matter that much.

No join is necessary:



select cl.id_circuit
from circuit_langue cl
group by cl.id_circuit
having count(*) >= 3;


This assumes no duplicates in the table. If there are, then you want to use count(distinct language) >= 3.

  • @Jeff75 . . . Your comment doesn't make sense in the context of this question. A circuit has to have three languages at least to be returned. Hence, you are not interested in those with no language.

You need to use group by with having like:



select c.id_circuit, count(cl.id_curcuit_language) as RecCount
from circuit c
inner join circuit_langue cl on c.id_circuit = cl.#id_circuit
group by c.id_circuit
having count(cl.id_curcuit_language) > 2

    You may try this(oracle style):



    select circuit.*
    from circuit,
    (select id_circuit
    from circuit_langue
    group by id_circuit
    having count(*) >2 ) lang
    where circuit.id_circuit = lang.id_circuit;


    This query provides you whole rows from circuits table, so you can access any column. On the other hand, if you need only "id_circuit" column, then the answer of Gordon Linoff is the best.
