HackerRank: [SQL Aggregation - 6/17] Population Density Difference | MAX, MIN Function in SQL
I started studying SQL from a very famous site - HackerRank. Here I will try to provide multiple approaches & solutions to the same problem. It will help you learn and understand SQL in a better way.

Please make use of my blog posts for learning purpose only and feel free to ask your questions in the comment box below in case of any doubt.

The CITY table is described as follows:

CITY Columns




Solution: Using MAX & MIN Function (MySQL Query):

SELECT MAX(POPULATION) - MIN(POPULATION)
FROM CITY;

NOTE: 
  1. MAX function used to get the largest value of all the records in the specified column name passed to the function.
  2. MIN function used to get the least (smallest) value of all the records in the specified column name passed to the function.




Sample Output:
