    科技2026-08-11  16

    Given a table salary, such as the one below, that has m=male and f=female values. Swap all f and m values (i.e., change all f values to m and vice versa) with a single update statement and no intermediate temp table.

    Note that you must write a single update statement, DO NOT write any select statement for this problem.

     

    Example:

    | id | name | sex | salary | |----|------|-----|--------| | 1 | A | m | 2500 | | 2 | B | f | 1500 | | 3 | C | m | 5500 | | 4 | D | f | 500 |

    After running your update statement, the above salary table should have the following rows:

    | id | name | sex | salary | |----|------|-----|--------| | 1 | A | f | 2500 | | 2 | B | m | 1500 | | 3 | C | f | 5500 | | 4 | D | m | 500 |

    Note: 

    不能使用select只能用update

    Solution:

    update salary set sex = if (sex = 'm', 'f','m');
