Starting from Andreas' code with a teensy change, it's fairly
straight-forward.
The original:
SELECT word_a || ',' || word_b as pair, count(*)
FROM
(
SELECT a.word AS word_a, b.word AS word_b
FROM
foo a
JOIN
foo b
ON (
a.id=b.id
AND a.word != b.word
AND a.word > b.word
) AS bla
GROUP BY pair;
Now with duplicates allowed. Note that I've just commented out one
line and changed > to >=.
SELECT word_a || ',' || word_b as pair, count(*)
FROM
(
SELECT a.word AS word_a, b.word AS word_b
FROM
foo a
JOIN
foo b
ON (
a.id=b.id
/* AND a.word != b.word */
AND a.word >= b.word
) AS bla
GROUP BY pair;
Hope this helps :)
Cheers,
David.
