I am using the following query to find repeated numbers in my table:
SELECT
c.code,
COUNT(c.code)
FROM cards c
group by c.code
HAVING COUNT(c.code)>1;
But the column code has varying numbers of 0s before the numbers, as an example:
0001897
001897
01897
1897
How could I make that query ignore all 0s before the numbers to consider all of the above as repeated (the same row in a group by)?
CodePudding user response:
You can try to use TRIM function with LEADING '0'
SELECT
TRIM(LEADING '0' FROM c.code),
COUNT(c.code)
FROM cards c
group by TRIM(LEADING '0' FROM c.code)
HAVING COUNT(c.code)>1;
