MySQL HAVING Clause
The HAVING clause in MySQL is used to filter the results returned by a GROUP BY clause based on specified conditions. It is similar to the WHERE clause but is applied after the grouping is done.
Example:
SELECT department_id, COUNT(*) AS employee_count
FROM employees
GROUP BY department_id
HAVING COUNT(*) > 5;This query calculates the number of employees in each department and filters out departments with more than 5 employees using the HAVING clause.
The HAVING clause is particularly useful when you want to filter grouped data based on aggregate function results.
