Let me evaluate each solution separately:

  1. Sql5_Q1_ReportContDates_rnk_grprnk.sql:

    • Correctness: The solution correctly identifies continuous date periods for each state (failed/succeeded) using the rank difference technique, which is a standard approach for such problems.
    • Time Complexity: O(n log n) due to the sorting operations in the window functions.
    • Space Complexity: O(n) for storing intermediate results.
    • Code Quality: Well-structured with clear CTEs. The column alias 'date' should be quoted consistently (either all quoted or none).
    • Efficiency: Good approach, though the year filter could be applied earlier in the CTEs for better performance.
  2. Sql5_Q2_StudentsByGeo.sql:

    • Correctness: Correctly pivots the data by continent using row numbers for alignment.
    • Time Complexity: O(n log n) for sorting in each CTE.
    • Space Complexity: O(n) for storing intermediate results.
    • Code Quality: Clear structure with CTEs. The RIGHT JOIN with LEFT JOIN combination could be simplified to FULL OUTER JOIN if available.
    • Efficiency: Consider using PIVOT or CROSSTAB if the SQL dialect supports it for better readability.
  3. Sql5_Q3_AvgSalDeptCo.sql:

    • Correctness: Correctly compares department averages with company averages.
    • Time Complexity: O(n log n) for the grouping operations.
    • Space Complexity: O(n) for storing intermediate results.
    • Code Quality: Well-structured with meaningful CTE names. The CASE statement could be simplified using SIGN() function if available.
    • Efficiency: Good approach, no major optimizations needed.
  4. Sql5_Q4_GamePlayAnalysis.sql:

    • Correctness: Correctly finds the first login date for each player.
    • Time Complexity: O(n log n) for the GROUP BY operation.
    • Space Complexity: O(n) for the grouping operation.
    • Code Quality: Simple and effective. Could add a comment explaining it's finding first login dates.
    • Efficiency: Already optimal for this simple query.

General strengths:

  • Consistent use of CTEs for better readability
  • Proper use of window functions where needed
  • Clear column naming
  • Appropriate use of GROUP BY operations

Areas for improvement:

  • Consider adding brief comments explaining the purpose of each CTE
  • Standardize quoting style for column aliases
  • Explore database-specific features like PIVOT for Q2
  • Consider adding index hints if performance is critical
