Explanation

The contest is used in the college . In this college , challenges and are asked, so from the view and submission stats:

• Sum of total submissions
• Sum of total accepted submissions
• Sum of total views
• Sum of total unique views

Similarly, we can find the sums for contests and .

Solution in MYSQL

select con.contest_id,
con.hacker_id,
con.name,
sum(total_submissions),
sum(total_accepted_submissions),
sum(total_views), sum(total_unique_views)
from contests con
join colleges col on con.contest_id = col.contest_id
join challenges cha on col.college_id = cha.college_id
left join
(select challenge_id, sum(total_views) as total_views, sum(total_unique_views) as total_unique_views
from view_stats group by challenge_id) vs on cha.challenge_id = vs.challenge_id
left join
(select challenge_id, sum(total_submissions) as total_submissions, sum(total_accepted_submissions) as total_accepted_submissions from submission_stats group by challenge_id) ss on cha.challenge_id = ss.challenge_id
group by con.contest_id, con.hacker_id, con.name
having sum(total_submissions)!=0 or
sum(total_accepted_submissions)!=0 or
sum(total_views)!=0 or
sum(total_unique_views)!=0

order by contest_id;
