SQL CTE とサブクエリの比較ガイド

-- Subquery: written where it's used
SELECT columns FROM (SELECT ...) AS name;

-- CTE: named first, then used like a table
WITH name AS (SELECT ...)
SELECT columns FROM name;

SELECT n * 2 AS doubled FROM (SELECT 21 AS n) AS numbers;
-- Output: 42

WITH numbers AS (SELECT 21 AS n)
SELECT n * 2 AS doubled FROM numbers;
-- Output: 42

-- Input: people
-- first_name | last_name | job      | favorite_food
-- -----------+-----------+----------+--------------
-- Matthew    | Ortiz     | Chef     | cheese
-- Matt       | Novak     | Pilot    | pizza
-- Mattie     | Brooks    | Engineer | cheese
-- Priya      | Nair      | Teacher  | cheese

-- Subquery
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT first_name, last_name, job FROM people WHERE favorite_food = 'cheese') AS cheese_lovers
WHERE first_name LIKE 'Matt%';

-- CTE
WITH cheese_lovers AS (
  SELECT first_name, last_name, job FROM people WHERE favorite_food = 'cheese'
)
SELECT * FROM cheese_lovers
WHERE first_name LIKE 'Matt%';

-- Output of both:
-- first_name | last_name | job
-- -----------+-----------+---------
-- Matthew    | Ortiz     | Chef
-- Mattie     | Brooks    | Engineer

SELECT (SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT 2) AS n;
-- ERROR: more than one row returned by a subquery used as an expression
-- (SQLite doesn't complain: it quietly uses the first row, 1)
