Hi Mustafa!
This is a task you will need to solve frequently. Here's how to do it in different cases:
1. Finding duplicates in a single column:
Suppose you have a table students and you want to find duplicate student names:
SELECT name, COUNT(name) AS CountOf
FROM students
GROUP BY name
HAVING COUNT(name) > 1;
2. Finding duplicates across multiple columns
Suppose you want to find duplicates based on the name and age columns in the students table:
SELECT name, age, COUNT(*) AS CountOf
FROM students
GROUP BY name, age
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;
thanks so much. that so helpful
