11,863 PointsIssues with grouping-joining-and-cleaning-up Quiz section
Okay,
I'm in the grouping-joining-and-cleaning-up Quiz section and it is asking for :
"Like before, group reviews by "movie_id", get the average "score" as "average" and filter out any averages over 2."
I respond with SQL of:
""SELECT movie_id, avg(score) as average from reviews group by movie_id having average > 2;"
and the results are :
movie_id average 2 0.30732E1 3 0.38333E1 4 0.27E1 5 0.36154E1 8 0.29167E1
It works in MySQL Workbench just fine, but you cannot go forward in the quiz with incorrect results.
Any suggestions? What am I missing?

Courses Plus Student 14,658 Points"Filter out any averages over 2" means that you don't want the averages over two. It's a little confusing in the wording. Just flip your > sign and you've got it.

11,863 PointsThank-you Ben. I did catch that after I sent the forum question. But even after correcting that issue, the results are still returning averages less than 1. If I run the same SQL against the DB in Workbench, it returns valid information, just not in the quiz application.

FROM reviews RIGHT OUTER JOIN movies
ON movies.id = reviews.movie_id
GROUP BY movie_id HAVING average < 2;
That was a tough one!

6,823 Pointsfor the first part of the exercise, there seems to be a lack of information.
The question is :
Group all reviews by "movie_id" and get the average "score" and alias it as "average".
I am using:
SELECT movie_id, AVG(score) AS average FROM reviews GROUP BY movie_id;
It dosen't work? any idea?
