Hello.

I have a table emp with fields name , id, skills. Consider one employee has 3 entries due to having 3 different skills - How can I populate only records in output with employees with 3 skills?
Thank you

Yes, no, maybe, you have precise your question.
Post a working Test case: create table and insert statements along with the result you want with these data.
Also always post your Oracle version with 4 decimals.

Detailed case:
Create table emp with fields name, id, skills - all are varchar.
Inserted below entries in table:
name id skills
A 1 S1
B 2 S2
A 1 S2
A 1 S3
C 3 S4

The expected output is:
name id skills
A 1 S1
A 1 S2
A 1 S3

Because, I wanted to extract employees who has 3 skills.

Hope, I could explain the question little better now.

thank you

The requirement is:
Quote:

Use COUNT in its analytic form.

Please find the CREATE/INSERT.

CREATE TABLE emp
(name char(50),
id int(1),
skills char(2));

INSERT INTO emp
VALUES ('A', 1 , 'S1');

INSERT INTO emp
VALUES ('B', 2 , 'S2');

INSERT INTO emp
VALUES ('A', 1 , 'S2');

INSERT INTO emp
VALUES ('A', 1 , 'S3');

INSERT INTO emp
VALUES ('C', 3 , 'S4');

Expected Result:
name id skills
A 1 S1
A 1 S2
A 1 S3

You can use GROUP BY and HAVING too:
SELECT * FROM emp
 WHERE ID IN
   (SELECT ID FROM emp
  GROUP BY ID
    HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT skills) = 3
   );

If there are only DISTINCT skills (NOT NULL) in Your table, simple use COUNT(*).
