《Microsoft SQL Server 2008 MDX Step by Step》学习笔记三：了解结果集（Sets）

SQL Server 2008中SQL应用系列及BI笔记系列--目录索引

导读:本文介绍结果集（Sets）的基础内容，已经了解的读者可以直接略过。

本文将包括以下内容：

■1、使用基本技巧组装Sets

■2、使用Sets从一个查询中提取多个Cell

■3、了解Select语句的基本组件

 本文所用数据库和所有源码，请到微软官网下载

 

1、Sets的基本技巧

在Analysis Service中，Set代表元组（Tuples）的集合。在一个Set内部，独立的元组被用逗号隔开，如下：

{
([Product].[Category].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Category].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Category].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Category].[Components])
}

下面我们组装一个基本的Sets

打开MDX查询编辑器，如下：

例4-1

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002], [Geography].[Country].[United States]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003], [Geography].[Country].[United States]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004], [Geography].[Country].[United States])
} ON COLUMNS,
{
([Product].[Category].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Category].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Category].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Category].[Components])
} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;

我们增加一个元组([Product].[Subcategory].[Mountain Bikes])，如下：

例4-2

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002], [Geography].[Country].[United States]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003], [Geography].[Country].[United States]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004], [Geography].[Country].[United States])
} ON COLUMNS,
{
([Product].[Category].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Category].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Category].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Category].[Components]),
([Product].[Subcategory].[Mountain Bikes])
} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;
/*
Executing the query ...
Members belong to different hierarchies in the function.
函数中指定的两个集具有不同的维数。

Execution complete
*/

我们使用相同维数的用户层次结构[Product Categories]，修改如下:

例4-3

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002], [Geography].[Country].[United States]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003], [Geography].[Country].[United States]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004], [Geography].[Country].[United States])
} ON COLUMNS,
{
([Product].[Product Categories].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Components]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Mountain Bikes])
} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;
/* CY 2002 CY 2003 CY 2004
United States United States United States
Accessories $61,263.90 $151,136.35 $76,027.18
Bikes $14,716,804.14 $16,139,984.68 $7,951,335.55
Clothing $317,939.41 $495,443.62 $197,590.92
Components $2,526,542.06 $3,284,551.84 $1,137,105.72
Mountain Bikes $6,970,418.73 $5,832,626.02 $2,539,198.92
*/

下面这个查询有类似错误：

例4-4

SELECT
{
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003], [Geography].[Country].[United States]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004], [Geography].[Country].[United States])
} ON COLUMNS,
{
([Product].[Product Categories].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Components]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Mountain Bikes])
} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;
/*
Executing the query ...
Query (2, 4) Two sets specified in the function have different dimensionality.
函数中指定的两个集具有不同的维数。
Execution complete
*/

正确应为：

例4-5

SELECT
{
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} ON COLUMNS,
{
([Product].[Product Categories].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Components]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Mountain Bikes])
} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;

我们可以这样改变顺序，并增加一个行：

例4-6

SELECT
{
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004]),
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002])
} ON COLUMNS,
{
([Product].[Product Categories].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Components]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Mountain Bikes])
} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;

查询结果如下：

/* United States United States United States
CY 2004 CY 2003 CY 2002
Accessories $76,027.18 $151,136.35 $61,263.90
Accessories $76,027.18 $151,136.35 $61,263.90
Bikes $7,951,335.55 $16,139,984.68 $14,716,804.14
Clothing $197,590.92 $495,443.62 $317,939.41
Components $1,137,105.72 $3,284,551.84 $2,526,542.06
Mountain Bikes $2,539,198.92 $5,832,626.02 $6,970,418.73
*/

多出的重复行怎么办？我们可以使用distinct函数（http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/library/ms146033.aspx）

例4-6

SELECT
{
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004]),
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Geography].[Country].[United States], [Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002])
} ON COLUMNS,
DISTINCT(
{
([Product].[Product Categories].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Components]),
([Product].[Product Categories].[Mountain Bikes])
}
) ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;
/* United States United States United States
CY 2004 CY 2003 CY 2002
Accessories $76,027.18 $151,136.35 $61,263.90

Clothing $197,590.92 $495,443.62 $317,939.41
Components $1,137,105.72 $3,284,551.84 $2,526,542.06
Mountain Bikes $2,539,198.92 $5,832,626.02 $6,970,418.73

*/

2、理解Select语句

select语句（http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/library/ms146002.aspx）的结构如下图：

 

3、使用函数生成Sets

下面了解几个非常useful的函数。

（一）Member函数（http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/library/ms144851(v=SQL.105).aspx），返回某个维度、级别或层次结构中的成员集。

我们看两个查询：

例4-7

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} ON COLUMNS,
{
([Product].[Category].[Accessories]),
([Product].[Category].[Bikes]),
([Product].[Category].[Clothing]),
([Product].[Category].[Components])
} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
;

例4-8

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Category].[Category].Members}
ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
; 

这两个MDX查询的结果是一样的，都是：

/* CY 2002 CY 2003 CY 2004
Accessories $61,263.90 $151,136.35 $76,027.18
Bikes $14,716,804.14 $16,139,984.68 $7,951,335.55
Clothing $317,939.41 $495,443.62 $197,590.92
Components $2,526,542.06 $3,284,551.84 $1,137,105.72
*/

请大家结合例子体会Member函数的用途。

我们略微修改一下例4-8，如下：

例4-9

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Category].Members}
ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
;

/* CY 2002 CY 2003 CY 2004
All Products $17,622,549.51 $20,071,116.48 $9,362,059.37
Accessories $61,263.90 $151,136.35 $76,027.18
Bikes $14,716,804.14 $16,139,984.68 $7,951,335.55
Clothing $317,939.41 $495,443.62 $197,590.92
Components $2,526,542.06 $3,284,551.84 $1,137,105.72
*/

我们再修改，

例4-10

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Product Categories].Members}
ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
;

/* NOTE: First 10 Row Members Presented
CY 2002 CY 2003 CY 2004
All Products $17,622,549.51 $20,071,116.48 $9,362,059.37
Accessories $61,263.90 $151,136.35 $76,027.18

Mountain Bottle Cage (null) (null) (null)
Road Bottle Cage (null) (null) (null)
Water Bottle - 30 oz. (null) $2,186.60 $1,554.90
*/

（二）MeasureGroupMeasures函数（http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/library/ms145485(v=SQL.105).aspx），它返回属于指定度量值组的一组度量值。

例4-11

SELECT
{MeasureGroupMeasures("Reseller Sales")} ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Category].Members} ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
;
/* Reseller Sales Amount Reseller Order Quantity Reseller Extended Amount Reseller Tax Amount Reseller Freight Cost Discount Amount Reseller Total Product Cost Reseller Standard Product Cost
All Products $80,450,596.98 214,378 $80,978,104.87 $6,436,047.61 $2,011,265.92 $527,507.93 $79,980,114.38 $26,693,830.57
Accessories $571,297.93 25,839 $577,985.95 $45,703.83 $14,282.52 $6,688.03 $375,505.33 $71,122.89
Bikes $66,302,381.56 75,015 $66,797,022.19 $5,304,190.40 $1,657,560.05 $494,640.65 $67,293,081.45 $22,039,062.39
Clothing $1,777,840.84 64,497 $1,798,805.33 $142,227.25 $44,446.19 $20,964.51 $1,545,417.42 $294,511.26
Components $11,799,076.66 49,027 $11,804,291.40 $943,926.12 $294,977.15 $5,214.74 $10,766,110.18 $4,289,134.03
*/

（三）Crossjoin函数（http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/library/ms144816.aspx）,返回一个或多个集的叉积。

例4-12

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Category].[Category].Members}
ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
;
/* CY 2002 CY 2003 CY 2004
Accessories $61,263.90 $151,136.35 $76,027.18
Bikes $14,716,804.14 $16,139,984.68 $7,951,335.55
Clothing $317,939.41 $495,443.62 $197,590.92
Components $2,526,542.06 $3,284,551.84 $1,137,105.72
*/

例4-13

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} ON COLUMNS,
Crossjoin(
{[Product].[Category].[Category].Members},
{
([Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount]),
([Measures].[Reseller Order Quantity])
}
) ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE ([Geography].[Country].[United States])
;
/*

Accessories Reseller Sales Amount $61,263.90 $151,136.35 $76,027.18
Accessories Reseller Order Quantity 3,426 6,848 3,125
Bikes Reseller Sales Amount $14,716,804.14 $16,139,984.68 $7,951,335.55
Bikes Reseller Order Quantity 16,079 19,728 9,121
Clothing Reseller Sales Amount $317,939.41 $495,443.62 $197,590.92
Clothing Reseller Order Quantity 11,284 18,028 7,250
Components Reseller Sales Amount $2,526,542.06 $3,284,551.84 $1,137,105.72
Components Reseller Order Quantity 9,602 14,503 5,323
*/

注意这里有四个产品分类和两个度量，因而共有4*2=8个元组(tuples)。

当然，下面是一种用法，

例4-15

SELECT
CROSSJOIN(
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
},
{
([Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount]),
([Measures].[Internet Sales Amount])
}
)
ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Category].[Category].Members}
ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
; 

其结果为：

/* CY 2002 CY 2002 CY 2003 CY 2003 CY 2004 CY 2004
Reseller Sales Amount Internet Sales Amount Reseller Sales Amount Internet Sales Amount Reseller Sales Amount Internet Sales Amount
Accessories $61,263.90 (null) $151,136.35 $293,709.71 $76,027.18 $407,050.25
Bikes $14,716,804.14 $6,530,343.53 $16,139,984.68 $9,359,102.62 $7,951,335.55 $9,162,324.85
Clothing $317,939.41 (null) $495,443.62 $138,247.97 $197,590.92 $201,524.64
Components $2,526,542.06 (null) $3,284,551.84 (null) $1,137,105.72 (null)
*/

4、限定Sets

（一）Auto-exists

例4-16

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
} *
{
([Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount]),
([Measures].[Internet Sales Amount])
}
ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Category].[Category].Members}
ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
;
/* CY 2002 CY 2002 CY 2003 CY 2003 CY 2004 CY 2004
Reseller Sales Amount Internet Sales Amount Reseller Sales Amount Internet Sales Amount Reseller Sales Amount Internet Sales Amount
Accessories $61,263.90 (null) $151,136.35 $293,709.71 $76,027.18 $407,050.25

Clothing $317,939.41 (null) $495,443.62 $138,247.97 $197,590.92 $201,524.64
Components $2,526,542.06 (null) $3,284,551.84 (null) $1,137,105.72 (null)
*/

注意提示：Cell set consists of 6 rows and 7 columns.实际返回的只有5行

例4-17

SELECT
{
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2002]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2003]),
([Date].[Calendar].[CY 2004])
}*
{

([Measures].[Internet Sales Amount])
}
ON COLUMNS,
{[Product].[Category].[Category].Members}
* {[Product].[Subcategory].[Subcategory].Members}
ON ROWS
FROM[Step-by-Step]
WHERE[Geography].[Country].[United States]
;

*/

注意这个结果是从37*4=148个行中，只返回了39行。

我们再修改下查询：
