employee_id is the column with unique values for this table.
This table contains information about the employees and the id of the manager they report to. Some employees do not report to anyone (reports_to is null).
For this problem, we will consider a manager an employee who has at least 1 other employee reporting to them.
Write a solution to report the ids and the names of all managers , the number of employees who report directly to them, and the average age of the reports rounded to the nearest integer.
Input:
Employees table:+-------------+---------+------------+-----+| employee_id | name | reports_to | age |+-------------+---------+------------+-----+|9| Hercy |null|43||6| Alice |9|41||4| Bob |9|36||2| Winston |null|37|+-------------+---------+------------+-----+Output:
+-------------+-------+---------------+-------------+| employee_id | name | reports_count | average_age |+-------------+-------+---------------+-------------+|9| Hercy |2|39|+-------------+-------+---------------+-------------+Explanation: Hercy has 2 people report directly to him, Alice and Bob. Their average age is(41+36)/2=38.5, which is39 after rounding it to the nearest integer.
Input:
Employees table:+-------------+---------+------------+-----+| employee_id | name | reports_to | age ||-------------|---------|------------|-----||1| Michael |null|45||2| Alice |1|38||3| Bob |1|42||4| Charlie |2|34||5| David |2|40||6| Eve |3|37||7| Frank |null|50||8| Grace |null|48|+-------------+---------+------------+-----+Output:
+-------------+---------+---------------+-------------+| employee_id | name | reports_count | average_age ||-----------|-------|-------------|-----------||1| Michael |2|40||2| Alice |2|37||3| Bob |1|37|+-------------+---------+---------------+-------------+## Solution
### Method 1- Self Join and Aggregation
We self-join the Employees table to count direct reports and compute the average age, rounding as required.#### Code

SELECT e.employee_id, e.name, COUNT(r.employee_id) AS reports_count,
ROUND(AVG(r.age)) AS average_age
FROM Employees e
JOIN Employees r ON r.reports_to = e.employee_id
GROUPBY e.employee_id, e.name
ORDERBY e.employee_id;
