Answer:

-         Should not refer to the answer before trying to write down your solutions
-         The answer for each question is only one (or two) of the many other solutions









Solution 1:
SELECT bc.No_Of_Copies
FROM BOOK b, BOOK_COPIES bc, LIBRARY_BRANCH bl
WHERE         b.BookId = bc.BookId AND
                        bc.BranchId = bl.BranchId AND
Title='The Lost Tribe' AND BranchName='Sharpstown';

Solution 2:
SELECT No_Of_Copies
FROM ((BOOK NATURAL JOIN BOOK_COPIES ) NATURAL JOIN            LIBRARY_BRANCH )
WHERE Title='The Lost Tribe' AND BranchName='Sharpstown';

  1. SELECT BranchName, No_Of_Copies
FROM ((BOOK NATURAL JOIN BOOK_COPIES ) NATURAL JOIN            LIBRARY_BRANCH )
WHERE Title='The Lost Tribe';

Solution 1:
SELECT         Name
FROM                        BORROWER B
WHERE         CardNo NOT IN (SELECT CardNo
                                                      FROM BOOK_LOANS );
Solution 2:
SELECT         Name
FROM                        BORROWER B
WHERE         NOT EXISTS (SELECT *
                                          FROM BOOK_LOANS L
                                          WHERE B.CardNo = L.CardNo );

  1. SELECT B.Title, R.Name, R.Address
FROM BOOK B, BORROWER R, BOOK_LOANS BL, LIBRARY_BRANCH LB
WHERE LB.BranchName='Sharpstown' AND LB.BranchId=BL.BranchId AND
BL.DueDate='today' AND BL.CardNo=R.CardNo AND BL.BookId=B.BookId

  1. SELECT         L.BranchName, COUNT(*)
FROM                        LIBRARY_BRANCH L, BOOK_LOANS BL
WHERE         BL.BranchId = L.BranchId
GROUP BY    L.BranchName;

  1. SELECT         B.Name, B.Address, COUNT(*)
FROM                        BORROWER B, BOOK_LOANS L
WHERE         B.CardNo = L.CardNo
GROUP BY    B.CardNo, B.Name, B.Address
HAVING        COUNT(*) > 5;

Solution 1:
SELECT         Title, No_Of_Copies
FROM   (((BOOK_AUTHORS NATURAL JOIN BOOK) NATURAL JOIN BOOK_COPIES) NATURAL JOIN LIBRARY_BRANCH)WHERE Author_Name='Stephen King' AND BranchName='Central';

Solution 2: Student should write the another solution not using the natural join.

  1. SELECT         LNAME, FNAME
FROM            EMPLOYEE, WORKS_ON, PROJECT
WHERE         DNO=5 AND SSN=ESSN AND PNO=PNUMBER AND PNAME='ProductX' AND HOURS>10;

  1. SELECT                     PNAME, SUM (HOURS)
FROM                        PROJECT, WORKS_ON
WHERE                     PNUMBER=PNO
GROUP BY    PNAME;

Note:  The Group By clause should be replaced as GROUP BY          (PNUMBER, PNAME) since there   may be some projects have the same name.

Solution 1:
SELECT         E.LNAME, E.FNAME
FROM            EMPLOYEE E
WHERE         NOT EXISTS (SELECT PNUMBER
                              FROM            PROJECT
                              WHERE         PNUMBER NOT IN (SELECT PNO
                                                                  FROM WORKS_ON
                                                                  WHERE ESSN=E.SSN ) );




Solution 2:
SELECT         LNAME, FNAME
FROM            EMPLOYEE
WHERE         NOT EXISTS (SELECT PNUMBER
                              FROM            PROJECT
                              WHERE         NOT EXISTS (SELECT *
                                                      FROM WORKS_ON
                                                      WHERE PNUMBER=PNO AND ESSN=SSN ) );

Solution 1:
SELECT                     LNAME, FNAME
FROM                        EMPLOYEE
WHERE                     SSN NOT IN ( SELECT ESSN
                                                    FROM WORKS_ON);
                                               
Solution 2:
SELECT                     LNAME, FNAME
FROM                        EMPLOYEE
WHERE                     NOT EXISTS ( SELECT *
                                                    FROM WORKS_ON
                                                    WHERE ESSN=SSN );

Solution 1:
SELECT         LNAME, FNAME, ADDRESS
FROM            EMPLOYEE
WHERE         EXISTS ( SELECT *
                              FROM WORKS_ON W, PROJECT P, DEPT_LOCATIONS DL
                              WHERE         W.PNO = P.PNUMBER AND
                                                      P.DNUM = DL.DNUM   AND
                                                      DL.DLOCATION <> ‘Houston’);
Solution 2:
SELECT         LNAME, FNAME, ADDRESS
FROM            EMPLOYEE
WHERE         EXISTS ( SELECT *
                  FROM WORKS_ON, PROJECT
                  WHERE SSN=ESSN AND PNO=PNUMBER AND PLOCATION='Houston' )
                  AND
                  NOT EXISTS ( SELECT *
                  FROM DEPT_LOCATIONS
                  WHERE DNO=DNUMBER AND DLOCATION='Houston' );

Solution 1:
SELECT         E.LNAME, E.FNAME
FROM            EMPLOYEE E, DEPARTMENT D
WHERE         E.SSN = D.MRGSSN AND
NOT EXISTS ( SELECT DEPENDENT_NAME
                              FROM DEPENDENT
                              WHERE ESSN=E.SSN )
                                   

Solution 2:
SELECT         LNAME, FNAME
FROM                        EMPLOYEE
WHERE         EXISTS ( SELECT *
                              FROM DEPARTMENT
                              WHERE SSN=MGRSSN )
                              AND
                              NOT EXISTS ( SELECT *
                              FROM DEPENDENT
                              WHERE SSN=ESSN );

  1. SELECT         *
FROM            Employee
WHERE         Salary > (SELECT AVG (Salary)
                                    FROM Employee )
ORDER BY Salary DESC;

Solution 1:
SELECT         E.*
FROM    EMPLOYEE E, (SELECT DNO, AVERAGE(SALARY) AS LTB
    FROM EMPLOYEE
    GROUP BY DNO) AS A
WHERE         E.DNO = A.DNO AND
                        E.SALARY > LTB;
                                   
Solution 2:
SELECT         E.*
FROM    EMPLOYEE E
WHERE   E.SALARY  > (SELECT AVERAGE(SALARY)
   FROM EMPLOYEE
   WHERE DNO = E.DNO);

            Note: if we want to display the average of the salary we should employ the solution 1 and put the “field name” LT
B in the select clause.
