Problem
Table: Sales
+--------------+---------+ | Column Name | Type | +--------------+---------+ | sale_id | int | | product_name | varchar | | sale_date | date | +--------------+---------+ sale_id is the column with unique values for this table. Each row of this table contains the product name and the date it was sold.
Â
Since table Sales was filled manually in the year 2000
, product_name
may contain leading and/or trailing white spaces, also they are case-insensitive.
Write a solution to report
product_name
in lowercase without leading or trailing white spaces.sale_date
in the format('YYYY-MM')
.total
the number of times the product was sold in this month.
Return the result table ordered by product_name
in ascending order. In case of a tie, order it by sale_date
in ascending order.
The result format is in the following example.
