mysql count distinct 统计结果去重

1、使用distinct去重(适合查询整张表的总数)有多个学校＋教师投稿，需要统计出作者的总数select count(author) as total from files每个作者都投稿很多，这里有重复的记录。

select distinct author from files;有可能两个学校的教师姓名相同，结果只统计一个，出错。select distinct author,sid from files统计(作者＋学校id)的组合唯一值，结果出现正确的结果，但如何知道一共有多少人呢？select count(distinct author,sid) as total from files

2、group by 分组去重(适合根据条件分组后查询每组的总数)

select author, count(distinct id) from files group by sid

3、记录两张表的数目的和，这两个表分开查询

SELECT SUM(c) 

FROM

  (SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT from_user_id, message_id) c

  FROM im_message 

  WHERE dr = 0  AND message_status = 2  AND user_type = 1  AND to_user_id = 2 

  UNION ALL 

  SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT group_id, message_id) c

  FROM im_messagerefgroup 

  WHERE dr = 0  AND user_id = 2

  ) 

AS temp ；
