Table: Activity
+--------------+---------+ | Column Name | Type | +--------------+---------+ | player_id | int | | device_id | int | | event_date | date | | games_played | int | +--------------+---------+ (player_id, event_date) is the primary key of this table. This table shows the activity of players of some game. Each row is a record of a player who logged in and played a number of games (possibly 0) before logging out on some day using some device.
Write an SQL query that reports the first login date for each player.
The query result format is in the following example:
Activity table: +-----------+-----------+------------+--------------+ | player_id | device_id | event_date | games_played | +-----------+-----------+------------+--------------+ | 1 | 2 | 2016-03-01 | 5 | | 1 | 2 | 2016-05-02 | 6 | | 2 | 3 | 2017-06-25 | 1 | | 3 | 1 | 2016-03-02 | 0 | | 3 | 4 | 2018-07-03 | 5 | +-----------+-----------+------------+--------------+ Result table: +-----------+-------------+ | player_id | first_login | +-----------+-------------+ | 1 | 2016-03-01 | | 2 | 2017-06-25 | | 3 | 2016-03-02 | +-----------+-------------+
Explanation
Group by the player id and use the minimum event date value.
SQL Solution
# Write your MySQL query statement below
select player_id, min(event_date) as first_login from Activity group by player_id
