• sql/PLSQL algorithm: is a rectangle filled with the other rectangles

  Hello
  I have 2 tables: T1 and T2:
  

  with T1 as
  (select 2 FromPeriod, 4 ToPeriod, 10 FromSum, 12 ToSum  from dual)
  select * from t1;
  
  
  with T2 as
  (select 1 FromPeriod, 2 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 5 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 1 FromPeriod, 3 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 4 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 2 FromPeriod, 5 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 11 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 2 FromPeriod, 5 ToPeriod, 11 FromSum, 12 ToSum  from dual)
  select * from t2;

  FromPeriod, ToPeriod are positive whole number without decimal point.
  FromSum, ToSum are positive numbers can have the comma.
  
  Table T1 contains unique in the columns 'FromPeriod-ToPeriod' points, that means that is there is a record where "FromPeriod-ToPeriod" = [2-4], then it is certainly not rendered as "FromPeriod-ToPeriod" = [1-4] keys wich [2-4] period, such a thing is not possible in table P1, it contains only unique periods that do not touch. Then the records with periods [2-4], [5-6] are ok in there.
  But table T2 allows periods affecting somehow. You can see that T2 contains "FromPeriod-ToPeriod" = [1-2] and also [1-3] that touch each other.
  
  We can look at the two tables T1 and T2 as rectangles where X - axis is the values of the axes and the "FromPeriod-ToPeriod" is [FromSum, ToSum].
  I need sql/plsql algorithm that returns true if the rectangle of table T1 is discovered/filled with rectangles in table T2. If the rectangle in T1 is completely filled or even more filled than necessary, then algorithm should return true. If even a small neighborhood in rectangle T1 is not filled by rectangles in T2, then the algorithm must return false.
  
  As see you in the sample data, T1 has a rectangle: [2-4; 10-12] T2 contains 4 mentions that fill/overdraw this area defined by T1. So for the moment the algorithm must return true.
  
  I do not know how to write effective elsewhere such algorithm, can you help me?
  
  --
  At the moment I only came with such algorithm/query:
  
  Test1: this test should return true:

  --query: is rectangle [2-4;10-12] filled? -Yes.
  with T2 as
  (select 1 FromPeriod, 2 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 5 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 1 FromPeriod, 3 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 4 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 2 FromPeriod, 5 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 11 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 2 FromPeriod, 5 ToPeriod, 11 FromSum, 12 ToSum  from dual)
  select * from t2
  where (2 <= ToPeriod and 4 >= FromPeriod) -- x-axes overlapping
  and (10 <= ToSum and 12 >= FromSum)--y-axes overlapping
  ;--2 rows
  
  --
  
  2     5     9     11
  2     5     11     12

  I takes as input the T1 table horizontal axes (2, [4]) and research data table T2 that affect this horizontal axes, also the value axes is compared. But how then? There are 2 files, but it can give 10 stores overlap in the periods and amounts. How to determine now that rectange T1 is filled?
  
  Test2: This case should return false:

  --query: is rectangle [2-4;10-12] filled? -No.
  with T2 as
  (select 1 FromPeriod, 2 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 4 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 1 FromPeriod, 3 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 4 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 2 FromPeriod, 4 ToPeriod, 9 FromSum, 11 ToSum  from dual
  union all
  select 2 FromPeriod, 5 ToPeriod, 13 FromSum, 13 ToSum  from dual)
  select * from t2
  where (2 <= ToPeriod and 4 >= FromPeriod) -- x-axes overlapping
  and (10 <= ToSum and 12 >= FromSum)--y-axes overlapping
  ;--1 row.

  Charles,

  I see 2 choices, but none is likely to evolve very well. The first can be with SQL - subdivision T1 into unit squares and see if everything not covered by T2:

  with T1 as
  (select 2 FromPeriod, 4 ToPeriod, 10.1 FromSum, 12 ToSum  from dual)
  , T1X as
  (select (FromPeriod+level)-1 as Period from T1 connect by level <= (ToPeriod-FromPeriod)+1)
  , T1Y as
  (select (FromSum+level*.01)-.01 as Summ from T1 connect by level <= (ToSum-FromSum+.01)/.01)
  , T1XY as (select Period,Summ from T1X,T1Y)
  ,T2 as
  (select 1 FromPeriod, 2 ToPeriod, 9.99 FromSum, 10.1 ToSum  from dual--satisfies sub-region [(2,2);(10.1,10.1)]
  union all
  select 1 FromPeriod, 2 ToPeriod, 9.99 FromSum, 10.11 ToSum  from dual--now satisfied sub-regions: [(2,2);(10.1,10.11)
  union all
  select 2 FromPeriod, 2 ToPeriod, 10 FromSum, 12.01 ToSum  from dual--now satisfied sub-regions: [(2,2);(10.1,12)
  union all
  select 3 FromPeriod, 4 ToPeriod, 10 FromSum, 11.99 ToSum  from dual--now satisfied sub-regions: [(2,2);(10.1,12)],[(3,4);(10,11.99)]
  union all
  select 4 FromPeriod, 4 ToPeriod, 10 FromSum, 13 ToSum  from dual--now satisfied sub-regions: all filled, return true
  )
  select Period,Summ from T1XY
  where not exists (
  select 1
  from T2
  where T2.FromPeriod<=T1XY.Period
  and   T2.ToPeriod>=T1XY.Period
  and   T2.FromSum<=T1XY.Summ
  and   T2.ToSum>=T1XY.Summ
  )
  ;
  

  The second option is more inspiring you described, using a recursive algorithm to subdivide the T1 into small rectangles for each rectangle in T2. For example:

  X(1)={[a,b;c,d]}
  
  Y={[e,f;g,h];[i,j;k,l]}
  
  X(2)={[a,e;c,g];[e,f;c,g];[f,b;c,g];[a,e;g,h];[f,b;g,h];[a,e;h,d];[e,f;h,d];[f,b;h,d]}
  or
  X(2)={[a,b;c,g];[a,b;h,d];[a,e;c,d];[f,b;c,d]}  -- this gives some overlap, but fewer rectangles and the algorithm still works.
  
  You would have to refine it to handle partial overlaps correctly, then drop areas that don't have a positive area. If
  X(2) becomes empty then it is fully covered. It might be most efficient to sort T2 in order of descending area.

• XML data in the table using sql/plsql

  Hi experts,

  Of course, you'll want to change the types of data, etc. as needed.

  I assumed that the XML can contain several "" sections and that each section can contain several entries.

  Thus the XMLTABLE aliasing as 'x' gives information of XML, and supplies the data associated with the XMLTABLE with alias 'y' which gets the multiple authors, which itself section of the XMLTABLE with alias 'z' for each of the article_item.

  CDATA stuff are handled automatically by SQLX (XML functionality integrated into Oracle's SQL)

• Return a row for sql plsql

  Hi all
  
  I get columns 5 and 6 in the form of a record variable, a join of multiple tables, returned by a function called func. These columns belong to different variable tables.this of record is returned by a function in my sql environment, where I'm using a statement similar to the Sub statement.
  
  Select func (par1, par2) of double;
  
  
  I created a compatible record type in my schema using the Sub statement.

  You can use the function to deal WITH

      empno integer
    , ename varchar2(10)
  )
  /
  show err
  create or replace function my_function return my_type

• ESX 3.5 and SQL best practices

  I searched for info on best practices when deploying SQL on the virtual computer. We already have a couple of lightweight SQL production servers running 2008 x 64 and SQL 2005. We are looking for migrating databases existing physical servers to a 2008 newly deployed x 64 SQL VM, I was able to find documents of Vmware and turned to the forum and information.

• Need help to form a query SQL/PLSQL

  Hello
  I'm not an expert in Oracle SQL. I need to have this query to improve the performance of my product. I have a table T that has a collar of column that is of type varchar. The neck is unique in the table (no two rows have the same value for the collar). Given a set S1 with 100 channels, the query should return me all channels in S1 who are not present in the neck.
  SQL query or PLSQL would be perfect. The query can have strings (elements of S1) hardcoded into it.

  Hello
  
  One of my friends couldnot give SQL exam due to some problems, but now the next date it was allocated to review SQL is in the next Month.He was thought to be able to cancel the good but since it has been registered with Oracle, so it wont get a refund and will lose his money. So he thought it will give SQL review itself next month.
  
  Now, he wanted to know if it can give PL/SQL Exam before SQL since it has a lot of time remaining and want to at least give a review.

  Examinations can be taken in any order; Although certifications will not receive until all prerequisites been met.

  I can't comment as to the nature of the voucher, how long it is valid for or if the examination can be postponed.

  Also advise your friend it is perhaps better to familiarize themselves with the site Web of Oracle and forums... I prefer the OCA who can find the best sources of authority to ask their own questions... but I can understand everything as there are people who are under pressure and the constraints to specific points in time and are unable to do it and have a good

• Configure the notification email in XE without 'EM in sql / plsql

  Hi guys,.
  
  I was wondering if anyone knows where configure outgoing by mmon mail server should send alert emails.
  
  My platform is an Oracle XE 10 DB, and I have not implemented the thing of XE (control of the database for XE) Administration web.
  because I installed Apex.
  
  So what I want to know is:
  How Oracle XE are configurable from plsql to send alerts by e-mail, including how to configure the host emaili, email ID etc.
  
  Thank you all and have a good weekend!

  MMON all done we put messages on a queue called ALERT_QUE. That means EM is subscribe to this queue, remove and send an e-mail/page of. The latter is done by EM himself doesn't use only not the packages built in.

  In the absence of 'EM, you would use PL/SQL for:

  (1) managing thresholds using DBMS_SERVER_ALERT
  (2) subscribe to and dequeue with DBMS_AQ
  (3) send emails with UTL_SMTP/UTL_MAIL

  At the moment there is no integrated package to send pages. If you really need to send pages, you will need to communicate with an external service that can send pages or use the API of any paging software, you use either Java stored procs or external procedures written in C
  This is a good amount of code to write, but you will have your own stored procedures that you would be able to reuse against any DB.

  You really need to read the section called "additional APIs to Manage Server-Generated alerts:

• Limitations on the use of SQL/PLSQL functions in reports 6i / 10g

  Hi gurus...
  
  We have a limitation on the use of TRIM, Regular Expressions, CASE operator subquery in cursor in reports 6i/10 g...
  Could you please let us know all these limitations for reports 6i / 10g. Any reference document will be much more useful...
  
  Any help will be greatly appreciated...
  Thank you in advance...

  There is no documentation. For example, documentation reports 6i can't say you cannot use regular expressions, simply because it is right, it did not exist at the time.
  The pl/sql in the forms and reports engine is always behind, on the database. You should put as much code as possible in the procedures of database and the views if you want to use again (pl /) sql features.
