Multiple COUNT() for multiple conditions in one query (MySQL)

Question

I have these queries :

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM t_table WHERE color = \'YELLOW\';
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM t_table WHERE color = \'BLUE\';
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM t_table W         


        

Answer 1

If you want the result to be in one row you can use:

SELECT
    SUM(IF(color = 'YELLOW', 1, 0)) AS YELLOW,
    SUM(IF(color = 'BLUE', 1, 0)) AS BLUE,
    SUM(IF(color = 'RED', 1, 0)) AS RED
FROM t_table
