Hi, Here is a sample data from table "quiz_results": id | question_id | user_id ----+-------------+------------ 2 | 25 | 5142670086 3 | 26 | 4 | 26 | 5 | 27 | 6 | 25 | 5142670086 7 | 25 | 5142670086 8 | 25 | 5142670086 9 | 26 | 10 | 40 | 5142670086 11 | 29 | 5142670086 As you see above question id 25 appeared more than once. This is basically a quiz result table where for users as they answered. question_id 25 always the first questions. Any user can go though the quiz N number of time. So, I want to find the last occurrence of the question_id 25 for any specific user in the table, and select that and all answers the users gave after this till the end of the quiz. Any idea how to solve it in a single efficient query. My all try didn't work out.
test=# create table quiz(id int, question_id int, user_id bigint); CREATE TABLE est=# select * from quiz order by id, question_id; id | question_id | user_id ----+-------------+------------ 2 | 25 | 5142670086 3 | 26 | NULL 4 | 26 | NULL 4 | 26 | NULL 5 | 27 | NULL 6 | 25 | 5142670086 7 | 25 | 5142670086 8 | 25 | 5142670086 10 | 40 | 5142670086 11 | 29 | 5142670086 (10 rows) test=# select * from quiz where user_id = 5142670086 and id >= (select max(id) from quiz where user_id = 5142670086 and question_id = 25) order by question_id; id | question_id | user_id ----+-------------+------------ 8 | 25 | 5142670086 11 | 29 | 5142670086 10 | 40 | 5142670086 (3 rows)
