This is the query which i used for the table named new and the column sold_price which is in the form example 5 CR or 50 L. There are only 2 discrete values in the respective column either "CR" or "L".
with cte as
(
SELECT player, country, sold_price,
substr(sold_price ,1,instr(sold_price,' ')) as sp,
substr(sold_price ,instr(sold_price,' ')) as sp_n
from new
)
select player, country,
case when sp_n = "L" then sp*100000 else sp*10000000 end as selling_price , sold_price
FROM cte
;
But the output is not coming correct. When it is "CR" in a row (using current query) the value comes correct for the current row but for the row with "L" the number of zeroes is one more than the "CR" row. I even tried cast function but it didn't work. Please help and tell me what i am doing wrong. Thanks.
