case when语句，用于计算条件列表并返回多个可能结果表达式之一。
CASE 具有两种格式：
简单 CASE 函数将某个表达式与一组简单表达式进行比较以确定结果。
CASE 搜索函数计算一组布尔表达式以确定结果。
两种格式都支持可选的 ELSE 参数。
语法
简单 CASE 函数：
CASE input_expression
WHEN when_expression THEN result_expression
[ ...n ]
[
ELSE else_result_expression
END
CASE 搜索函数：
CASE
WHEN Boolean_expression THEN result_expression
[ ...n ]
[
ELSE else_result_expression
END
参数
input_expression
是使用简单 CASE 格式时所计算的表达式。Input_expression 是任何有效的 Microsoft? SQL Server? 表达式。
WHEN when_expression
使用简单 CASE 格式时 input_expression 所比较的简单表达式。When_expression 是任意有效的 SQL Server 表达式。Input_expression 和每个 when_expression 的数据类型必须相同，或者是隐性转换。
占位符，表明可以使用多个 WHEN when_expression THEN result_expression 子句或 WHEN Boolean_expression THEN result_expression 子句。
THEN result_expression
当 input_expression = when_expression 取值为 TRUE，或者 Boolean_expression 取值为 TRUE 时返回的表达式。
result expression 是任意有效的 SQL Server 表达式。
ELSE else_result_expression
当比较运算取值不为 TRUE 时返回的表达式。如果省略此参数并且比较运算取值不为 TRUE，CASE 将返回 NULL 值。Else_result_expression 是任意有效的 SQL Server 表达式。Else_result_expression 和所有 result_expression 的数据类型必须相同，或者必须是隐性转换。
WHEN Boolean_expression
使用 CASE 搜索格式时所计算的布尔表达式。Boolean_expression 是任意有效的布尔表达式。
结果类型
从 result_expressions 和可选 else_result_expression 的类型集合中返回最高的优先规则类型。有关更多信息，请参见数据类型的优先顺序。
结果值
简单 CASE 函数：
计算 input_expression，然后按指定顺序对每个 WHEN 子句的 input_expression = when_expression 进行计算。
返回第一个取值为 TRUE 的 (input_expression = when_expression) 的 result_expression。
如果没有取值为 TRUE 的 input_expression = when_expression，则当指定 ELSE 子句时 SQL Server 将返回 else_result_expression；若没有指定 ELSE 子句，则返回 NULL 值。
CASE 搜索函数：
按指定顺序为每个 WHEN 子句的 Boolean_expression 求值。
返回第一个取值为 TRUE 的 Boolean_expression 的 result_expression。
如果没有取值为 TRUE 的 Boolean_expression，则当指定 ELSE 子句时 SQL Server 将返回 else_result_expression；若没有指定 ELSE 子句，则返回 NULL 值。
下面分享一些mysql case when语句的例子。
A. 使用带有简单 CASE 函数的 SELECT 语句
在 SELECT 语句中，简单 CASE 函数仅检查是否相等，而不进行其它比较。
例子，使用 CASE 函数更改图书分类显示。
USE pubs
GO
SELECT Category =
CASE type
WHEN 'popular_comp' THEN 'Popular Computing'
WHEN 'mod_cook' THEN 'Modern Cooking'
WHEN 'business' THEN 'Business'
WHEN 'psychology' THEN 'Psychology'
WHEN 'trad_cook' THEN 'Traditional Cooking'
ELSE 'Not yet categorized'
END,
CAST(title AS varchar(25)) AS 'Shortened Title',
price AS Price
FROM titles
WHERE price IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY type, price
COMPUTE AVG(price) BY type
GO
注释，后来我试了一下不让用category=。
我使用的代码为：
SELECT
case gender
WHEN 1 THEN 'NAN'
WHEN 0 THEN 'NV'
end as gender
FROM
t_swidy_day_nutrient
结果集：
Category Shortened Title Price

B. 使用带有简单 CASE 函数和 CASE 搜索函数的
SELECT 语句
在 SELECT 语句中，CASE 搜索函数允许根据比较值在结果集内对值进行替换。
例子：根据图书的价格范围将价格（money 列）显示为文本注释。
USE pubs
GO
SELECT 'Price Category' =
CASE
WHEN price IS NULL THEN 'Not yet priced'
WHEN price < 10 THEN 'Very Reasonable Title'
WHEN price >= 10 and price < 20 THEN 'Coffee Table Title'
ELSE 'Expensive book!'
END,
CAST(title AS varchar(20)) AS 'Shortened Title'
FROM titles
ORDER BY price
GO
结果集：
Price Category Shortened Title
--------------------- --------------------
Not yet priced Net Etiquette
Not yet priced The Psychology of Co
Very Reasonable Title The Gourmet Microwav
Very Reasonable Title You Can Combat Compu
Very Reasonable Title Life Without Fear
Very Reasonable Title Emotional Security:
Coffee Table Title Is Anger the Enemy?
Coffee Table Title Cooking with Compute
Coffee Table Title Fifty Years in Bucki
Coffee Table Title Sushi, Anyone?

Coffee Table Title Silicon Valley Gastr

Coffee Table Title The Busy Executive's

C. 使用带有 SUBSTRING 和 SELECT 的 CASE 函数
例子，使用 CASE 和 THEN 生成一个有关作者、图书标识号和每个作者所著图书类型的列表。
USE pubs
SELECT SUBSTRING((RTRIM(a.au_fname) + ' '+
RTRIM(a.au_lname) + ' '), 1, 25) AS Name, a.au_id, ta.title_id,
Type =
CASE
WHEN SUBSTRING(ta.title_id, 1, 2) = 'BU' THEN 'Business'
WHEN SUBSTRING(ta.title_id, 1, 2) = 'MC' THEN 'Modern Cooking'
WHEN SUBSTRING(ta.title_id, 1, 2) = 'PC' THEN 'Popular Computing'
WHEN SUBSTRING(ta.title_id, 1, 2) = 'PS' THEN 'Psychology'
WHEN SUBSTRING(ta.title_id, 1, 2) = 'TC' THEN 'Traditional Cooking'
END
FROM titleauthor ta JOIN authors a ON ta.au_id = a.au_id
结果集：
Name au_id title_id Type

CASE 可能是 SQL 中被误用最多的关键字之一。
虽然，可能以前用过这个关键字来创建字段，但是它还具有更多用法。
例如，可以在 WHERE 子句中使用 CASE。
首先，来看下 CASE 的语法。在一般的 SELECT 中，其语法如下：
SELECT <myColumnSpec> =
CASE
WHEN <A> THEN <somethingA>
WHEN <B> THEN <somethingB>
ELSE <somethingE>
END
以上代码，需要用具体的参数代替尖括号中的内容。
例子：
USE pubs
GO
SELECT
Title,
'Price Range' =
CASE
WHEN price IS NULL THEN 'Unpriced'
WHEN price < 10 THEN 'Bargain'
WHEN price BETWEEN 10 and 20 THEN 'Average'
ELSE 'Gift to impress relatives'
END
FROM titles
ORDER BY price
GO
这是 CASE 的典型用法，但是使用 CASE 其实可以做更多的事情。
比方说下面的 GROUP BY 子句中的 CASE：
SELECT 'Number of Titles', Count(*)
FROM titles
GROUP BY
CASE
WHEN price IS NULL THEN 'Unpriced'
WHEN price < 10 THEN 'Bargain'
WHEN price BETWEEN 10 and 20 THEN 'Average'
ELSE 'Gift to impress relatives'
END
GO
甚至还可以组合这些选项，添加一个 ORDER BY 子句，例如：
USE pubs
GO
SELECT
CASE
WHEN price IS NULL THEN 'Unpriced'
WHEN price < 10 THEN 'Bargain'
WHEN price BETWEEN 10 and 20 THEN 'Average'
ELSE 'Gift to impress relatives'
END AS Range,
Title
FROM titles
GROUP BY
CASE
WHEN price IS NULL THEN 'Unpriced'
WHEN price < 10 THEN 'Bargain'
WHEN price BETWEEN 10 and 20 THEN 'Average'
ELSE 'Gift to impress relatives'
END,
Title
ORDER BY
CASE
WHEN price IS NULL THEN 'Unpriced'
WHEN price < 10 THEN 'Bargain'
WHEN price BETWEEN 10 and 20 THEN 'Average'
ELSE 'Gift to impress relatives'
END,
Title
GO
注意，为了在 GROUP BY 块中使用 CASE，查询语句需要在 GROUP BY 块中重复 SELECT 块中的 CASE 块。
除了选择自定义字段之外，在很多情况下 CASE 都非常有用。
稍加深入，还可以得到以前认为不可能得到的分组排序结果集。
使用CASE WHEN进行字符串替换处理
