You probably first need to convert the returned json value to a number, either via: json."integer"( json.filter(value,'r2')) which returns a bigint or json.number( json.filter(value,'r2')) which returns a float See also: https://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/Manuals/SQLreference/Types/JSON On 21-11-2016 18:33, Lynn Carol Johnson wrote: Hello all - I’m having trouble pulling rows based on the value of a json key/value pair.

Not the json key, the json key’s value. I can pull json values based on a non-json field, e.g. Grab the pval where chr>1 as below: sql>select json.filter(value,'r2') as r2Value from testjson where chr=1; +-----------------------+ | r2value | +=======================+ | [0.0995066009518681] | | [0.10462833261259474] | +-----------------------+ 2 tuples (1.179ms) sql> But I want to pull chr/pos where pval < some amount, or df > some number. For example, how would I write the query to select all rows where df > 1? This query should return the last row of the table above. I’ve tried the following: sql>select * from testjson where (json.filter(value,'df') > 1); types json(0,0) and tinyint(8,0) are not equal sql> Thanks for your help - Lynn _______________________________________________ users-list mailing list users-list@monetdb.org<mailto:users-list@monetdb.org>https://www.monetdb.org/mailman/listinfo/users-list
