I have a database table with 2 columns naming piece and diff and type.
Here's what the table looks like
id | piece | diff | type
1 | 20 | NULL | cake
2 | 15 | NULL | cake
3 | 10 | NULL | cake
I want like 20 - 15 = 5 then 15 -10 = 5 , then so on so fort with type as where.
Result will be like this
id | piece | diff | type
1 | 20 | 0 | cake
2 | 15 | 5 | cake
3 | 10 | 5 | cake
Here's the code I have so far but i dont think I'm on the right track
SELECT
tableblabla.id,
(tableblabla.cast(pieces as decimal(7, 2)) - t.cast(pieces as decimal(7, 2))) as diff
FROM
tableblabla
INNER JOIN
tableblablaas t ON tableblabla.id = t.id + 1
Thanks for the help

Use LAG/LEAD
window function.
Considering that you want to find Difference
per type
else remove Partition by
from window functions
select id, piece,
Isnull(lag(piece)over(partition by type order by id) - piece,0) as Diff,
type
From yourtable
If you are using Sql Server
prior to 2012
use this.
;WITH cte
AS (SELECT Row_number()OVER(partition by type ORDER BY id) RN,*
FROM Yourtable)
SELECT a.id,
a.piece,
Isnull(b.piece - a.piece, 0) AS diff,
a.type
FROM cte a
LEFT JOIN cte b
ON a.rn = b.rn + 1
