Create a table based on the result of IFNULL
<source lang="sql">
mysql> mysql> mysql> CREATE TABLE tmp SELECT IFNULL(1,"test") AS test; Query OK, 1 row affected (0.25 sec) Records: 1 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 mysql> mysql> DESCRIBE tmp; +-------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +-------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | test | varbinary(4) | NO | | | | +-------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ 1 row in set (0.14 sec) mysql> mysql> select * from tmp; +------+ | test | +------+ | 1 | +------+ 1 row in set (0.02 sec) mysql> mysql> drop table tmp; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec) mysql></source>
IFNULL(expr1,expr2)
If expr1 is not NULL, IFNULL() returns expr1; otherwise it returns expr2.
<source lang="sql">
mysql> mysql> SELECT IFNULL(1,0); +-------------+ | IFNULL(1,0) | +-------------+ | 1 | +-------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql> mysql> SELECT IFNULL(NULL,10); +-----------------+ | IFNULL(NULL,10) | +-----------------+ | 10 | +-----------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql> mysql> SELECT IFNULL(1/0,10); +----------------+ | IFNULL(1/0,10) | +----------------+ | 10.0000 | +----------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql> mysql> SELECT IFNULL(1/0,"yes"); +-------------------+ | IFNULL(1/0,"yes") | +-------------------+ | yes | +-------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql></source>
IFNULL() with NULL and NOT NULL value
<source lang="sql">
mysql> mysql> SELECT IFNULL(NULL,"The value is Null"); +----------------------------------+ | IFNULL(NULL,"The value is Null") | +----------------------------------+ | The value is Null | +----------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql> mysql> SELECT IFNULL(10,"The value is Null"); +--------------------------------+ | IFNULL(10,"The value is Null") | +--------------------------------+ | 10 | +--------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql></source>
Use the IFNULL() function to specify a zero in place of the NULL figure
