Re: Grouping Question

OK that worked, but now how do I get the integer returned by extract into a human friendly string like
7/1 - 7/8 or something similar ?

You would use some of postgresql built in date functions to extract the week from the date and group by that

i.e.

select carrier, extract(week from start_time) as week, sum(call_length) as totallength, sum(cost) as total_cost
from mytable
group by carrier, extract(week from start_time)
order by week, carrier

you'll probably want to extract the year as well so dates weeks from alternate years don't get merged together

I have a table defined as
CREATE TABLE mytable

 carrier varchar,
 start_time timestamp with time zone,
 call_date date,
 cost numeric,
 call_length numeric

I want to create a query that will generate a the following columns:
carrier, week, sum(call_length) as totallength, sum(cost) as total_cost
from mytable
group by carrier, (WHAT HERE?)
order by week, carrier
week is defined as a date range so something like 7/6/2009 - 7/13/2009 I would need the timestamps to be grouped into 7 day intervals starting from the first one and moving through the table. is this possible in a single query or would I have to write a function ?
