Find the next lowest number higher than a certain number in MySQL?
For this, use aggregate function MIN() along with WHERE clause. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable ( Number int ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.54 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable values(11); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(9); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(10); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values(12); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+--------+ | Number | +--------+ | 11 | | 9 | | 10 | | 12 | +--------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to find the next lowest number higher than a certain number in MySQL −
mysql> select min(Number) from DemoTable where Number > 10;
This will produce the following output −
+-------------+ | min(Number) | +-------------+ | 11 | +-------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
