In this Query, I have to list pair of players with their playerID and playerName who play for the exact same teams.If a player plays for 3 teams, the other has to play for exact same 3 teams. No less, no more. If two players currently do not play for any team, they should also be included. The query should return (playerID1, playername1, playerID2, playerName2) with no repetition such as if player 1 info comes before player 2, there should not be another tuple with player 2 info coming before player 1.
For example if player A plays for yankees and redsox, and player b plays for Yankees, Red Sox, and Dodgers I should not get them. They both have to play for Yankees, and Red Sox and no one else. Right now this query finds answer if players play for any same team.
player(playerID: integer, playerName: string)
team(teamID: integer, teamName: string, sport: string)
plays(playerID: integer, teamID: integer)
Right now the Query I have is
SELECT p1.playerID, p1.playerName, p2.playerID, p2.playerName
FROM player p1, player p2, plays
WHERE p1.teamID = p2.teamID AND teamID in.....
I am stuck on how to approach it after this. Any hints on how to approach this problem. Thanks for your time.
