Understanding SQL GROUP BY and Column Access SQL is a powerful language for managing and analyzing data in relational databases. One of the fundamental concepts in SQL is grouping, which allows us to aggregate data by one or more columns. However, sometimes we want to access new columns that are not present in our original table, but were introduced through calculations or transformations. In this article, we will explore how to explicitly access a new column in SQL from GROUP BY.
