- Supplier Table Columns: Supplier_id, Supplier_Name, Country

Write an SQL query to find the name of the product with the highest price in each
country.

Answer:

SELECT
s.Country,
p.Product_Name,
p.Price
FROM
Product p
JOIN
Supplier s ON p.Supplier_id = s.Supplier_id
WHERE
(s.Country, p.Price) IN (
SELECT
s2.Country,
MAX(p2.Price)
FROM
Product p2
JOIN
Supplier s2 ON p2.Supplier_id = s2.Supplier_id
GROUP BY s2.Country
);
Question 2:
You have two tables: Customer and Transaction.
- Customer Table Columns: Customer_id, Customer_Name, Registration_Date
- Transaction Table Columns: Transaction_id, Customer_id, Transaction_Date,
Amount

Write an SQL query to calculate the total transaction amount for each customer for
the current year. The output should contain Customer_Name and the total amount.

Answer:

SELECT
c.Customer_Name,
SUM(t.Amount) AS Total_Amount
FROM
Customer c
JOIN
Transaction t ON c.Customer_id = t.Customer_id
WHERE
YEAR(t.Transaction_Date) = YEAR(CURDATE())
GROUP BY
c.Customer_Name;

Question 3:
Write an SQL query to find customers who have not made any transactions this
year.

Answer:

SELECT
c.Customer_Name
FROM
Customer c
LEFT JOIN
Transaction t ON c.Customer_id = t.Customer_id
AND YEAR(t.Transaction_Date) = YEAR(CURDATE())
WHERE
t.Transaction_id IS NULL;

Question 4:
Find the third highest salary from the Employee table using DENSE_RANK.

Answer:

WITH SalaryRank AS (
SELECT
Salary,
DENSE_RANK() OVER (ORDER BY Salary DESC) AS Rank
FROM
Employee
)
SELECT
Salary
FROM
SalaryRank
WHERE
Rank = 3;

Question 5:
Write an SQL query to fetch the total number of transactions and the average
transaction amount for each customer.

Answer:

SELECT
c.Customer_Name,
COUNT(t.Transaction_id) AS Transaction_Count,
AVG(t.Amount) AS Average_Amount
FROM
Customer c
JOIN
Transaction t ON c.Customer_id = t.Customer_id
GROUP BY
c.Customer_Name;

B. Python Questions & Answers

Question 1:
You have a DataFrame called df_sales with columns Product_Name, Country, and
Price. Write a pandas code to find the name of the product with the highest price in
each country.

Answer:

df_sales.loc[df_sales.groupby('Country')['Price'].idxmax()]

Question 2:
You have two DataFrames: df_customer with columns Customer_id,
Customer_Name, and Registration_Date, and df_transaction with columns
Transaction_id, Customer_id, Transaction_Date, and Amount. Write a pandas code
to calculate the total transaction amount for each customer for the current year.

Answer:

import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime

current_year = datetime.now().year
df_transaction['Transaction_Date'] =
pd.to_datetime(df_transaction['Transaction_Date'])

df_transaction_current_year =
df_transaction[df_transaction['Transaction_Date'].dt.year == current_year]
df_total =
df_transaction_current_year.groupby('Customer_id')['Amount'].sum().reset_index()
df_total = df_total.merge(df_customer[['Customer_id', 'Customer_Name']],
on='Customer_id')

Question 3:
You have a DataFrame df with columns Employee_ID, Employee_Name, and
Salary. Write pandas code to fetch the third highest salary using rank.

Answer:

df['Salary_Rank'] = df['Salary'].rank(method='dense', ascending=False)


df_third_highest_salary = df[df['Salary_Rank'] == 3]['Salary']

Question 4:
You have a DataFrame df with columns Transaction_ID, Customer_ID, and
Amount. Write a pandas code to calculate the average transaction amount for each
customer.

Answer:

df_avg = df.groupby('Customer_ID')['Amount'].mean().reset_index()

Question 5:
You have two DataFrames df1 and df2. Write pandas code to merge them on a
common column 'ID'.

Answer:

df_merged = pd.merge(df1, df2, on='ID')
