About SQL CTEs

Common Table Expressions (CTEs) create temporary named result sets that improve query readability and enable recursive queries. This topic covers basic CTEs with WITH, multiple CTEs in a single query, recursive CTEs for hierarchical data, and CTEs vs subqueries. CTEs are the modern standard for writing complex SQL.

Tips

  • CTEs improve readability over nested subqueries
  • Recursive CTEs use WITH RECURSIVE and a termination condition
  • Multiple CTEs can be chained with commas

CTE - Common Table Expression #1

Use a CTE to find employees with above-average salaries. Recursive CTEs or complex CTE chains. Recursive CTEs use UNION ALL and can traverse hierarchical data. Be careful to include proper termination conditions.
