Python and SQL Expertise

EasySQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Tell me about your expertise in Python and how you use SQL in your business analysis work.

For a hands-on demonstration, use analysis_projects and analysis_activities to summarize each analyst project by recorded Python and SQL activity. Include projects without recorded activities and exclude activities that do not belong to a listed project.

Output

  1. One row per project with project_id, project_name, analyst_name, python_activity_count, sql_activity_count, total_hours, and primary_tools
  2. Include all projects, order by total_hours descending, then project_id ascending
