SQL Basics
ROUNDing
In the last chapter, you solved the task and received a number with many digits after the decimal place. This is surely precise, but not representative, as there is no way to pay 0.002$, for example. It would be great if we could round numbers to some digits.
Surely it's also implemented into SQL! To round number to n
decimal places use ROUND(column_name, n)
function. For example, from our audi_cars
dataset let's calculate the average price of TT model cars with mileage less than 3000 and round the result to 0 decimals (so it will be an integer).
SELECT ROUND(AVG(price), 0) FROM audi_cars WHERE model = 'TT' AND mileage < 3000
That's more representative!

From the audi_cars
table calculate the average price for Petrol cars (column fueltype
) with Semi-Auto transmission (column transmission
). Round the result to 2 digits after the comma.
