Explanation:

  • During the first week of November 2023, a transaction occurred on Friday, 2023-11-03, by a Premium member amounting to $1,126. No transactions were made by VIP members on this day, resulting in a value of 0.
  • For the second week of November 2023, there was a transaction on Friday, 2023-11-10, and it was made by a VIP member, amounting to $7,473. Since there were no purchases by Premium members that Friday, the output shows 0 for Premium members.
  • Similarly, during the third week of November 2023, no transactions by Premium or VIP members occurred on Friday, 2023-11-17, which shows 0 for both categories in this week.
  • In the fourth week of November 2023, transactions occurred on Friday, 2023-11-24, involving one Premium member purchase of $5,117 and VIP member purchases totaling $14,933 ($9,692 from one and $5,241 from another).

Note: The output table is ordered by week_of_month and membership in ascending order.

Solutions

Solution 1: Recursion + Join

First, we create a recursive table T that includes a week_of_month column, representing the week of the month. Then we create a table M that includes a membership column, representing the type of membership, with values 'Premium' and 'VIP'.

Next, we create a table P that includes week_of_month, membership, and amount_spend columns, filtering out the amount spent by each member on Fridays of each week of the month. Finally, we join tables T and M, then left join table P, and group by week_of_month and membership columns to calculate the total spending of each type of member each week.
