sql server中变量要先申明后赋值：

局部变量用一个@标识，全局变量用两个@（常用的全局变量一般都是已经定义好的）；

申明局部变量语法：declare @变量名 数据类型；例如：declare @num int；

赋值：有两种方法式（@num为变量名，value为值）

set @num=value;   或   select @num=value;

如果想获取查询语句中的一个字段值可以用select给变量赋值,如下：

select @num=字段名 from 表名 where ……

mysql中变量不用事前申明，在用的时候直接用“@变量名”使用就可以了。

第一种用法：set @num=1; 或set @num:=1; //这里要使用变量来保存数据，直接使用@num变量

第二种用法：select @num:=1; 或 select @num:=字段名 from 表名 where ……

注意上面两种赋值符号，使用set时可以用“=”或“：=”，但是使用select时必须用“：=赋值”

You can store a value in a user-defined variable in one statement and then refer to it later in another statement. This enables you to pass values from one statement to another.

User variables are written as @var_name, where the variable name var_name consists of alphanumeric characters, “.”, “_”, and “$”. A user variable name can contain other characters if you quote it as a string or identifier (for example, @'my-var',@"my-var", or @`my-var`).

User-defined variables are session-specific. A user variable defined by one client cannot be seen or used by other clients. (Exception: A user with access to the Performance Schema user_variables_by_thread table can see all user variables for all sessions.) All variables for a given client session are automatically freed when that client exits.

User variable names are not case sensitive. Names have a maximum length of 64 characters as of MySQL 5.7.5. (Length is not constrained before that.)

One way to set a user-defined variable is by issuing a SET statement:

SET @var_name = expr [, @var_name = expr] ...

For SET, either = or := can be used as the assignment operator.

You can also assign a value to a user variable in statements other than SET. In this case, the assignment operator must be := and not = because the latter is treated as the comparison operator = in non-SET statements:

mysql> SET @t1=1, @t2=2, @t3:=4;

mysql> SELECT @t1, @t2, @t3, @t4 := @t1+@t2+@t3;

+------+------+------+--------------------+

| @t1  | @t2  | @t3  | @t4 := @t1+@t2+@t3 |

+------+------+------+--------------------+

|    1 |    2 |    4 |                  7 |

+------+------+------+--------------------+

User variables can be assigned a value from a limited set of data types: integer, decimal, floating-point, binary or nonbinary string, or NULL value. Assignment of decimal and real values does not preserve the precision or scale of the value. A value of a type other than one of the permissible types is converted to a permissible type. For example, a value having a temporal or spatial data type is converted to a binary string. A value having the JSON data type is converted to a string with a character set of utf8mb4 and a collation of utf8mb4_bin.

If a user variable is assigned a nonbinary (character) string value, it has the same character set and collation as the string. The coercibility of user variables is implicit. (This is the same coercibility as for table column values.)

Bit values assigned to user variables are treated as binary strings. To assign a bit value as a number to a user variable, use CAST() or +0:

mysql> SET @v1 = b'1000001';

mysql> SET @v2 = CAST(b'1000001' AS UNSIGNED), @v3 = b'1000001'+0;

mysql> SELECT @v1, @v2, @v3;

+------+------+------+

| @v1  | @v2  | @v3  |

+------+------+------+

| A    |   65 |   65 |

+------+------+------+

If the value of a user variable is selected in a result set, it is returned to the client as a string.

If you refer to a variable that has not been initialized, it has a value of NULL and a type of string.

User variables may be used in most contexts where expressions are permitted. This does not currently include contexts that explicitly require a literal value, such as in the LIMIT clause of a SELECT statement, or the IGNORE N LINES clause of aLOAD DATA statement.

As a general rule, other than in SET statements, you should never assign a value to a user variable and read the value within the same statement. For example, to increment a variable, this is okay:

SET @a = @a + 1;

For other statements, such as SELECT, you might get the results you expect, but this is not guaranteed. In the following statement, you might think that MySQL will evaluate @a first and then do an assignment second:

SELECT @a, @a:=@a+1, ...;

However, the order of evaluation for expressions involving user variables is undefined.

Another issue with assigning a value to a variable and reading the value within the same non-SET statement is that the default result type of a variable is based on its type at the start of the statement. The following example illustrates this:

mysql> SET @a='test';

mysql> SELECT @a,(@a:=20) FROM tbl_name;

For this SELECT statement, MySQL reports to the client that column one is a string and converts all accesses of @a to strings, even though @a is set to a number for the second row. After the SELECT statement executes, @a is regarded as a number for the next statement.

To avoid problems with this behavior, either do not assign a value to and read the value of the same variable within a single statement, or else set the variable to 0, 0.0, or '' to define its type before you use it.

In a SELECT statement, each select expression is evaluated only when sent to the client. This means that in a HAVING, GROUP BY, or ORDER BY clause, referring to a variable that is assigned a value in the select expression list does not work as expected:

mysql> SELECT (@aa:=id) AS a, (@aa+3) AS b FROM tbl_name HAVING b=5;

The reference to b in the HAVING clause refers to an alias for an expression in the select list that uses @aa. This does not work as expected: @aa contains the value of id from the previous selected row, not from the current row.

User variables are intended to provide data values. They cannot be used directly in an SQL statement as an identifier or as part of an identifier, such as in contexts where a table or database name is expected, or as a reserved word such asSELECT. This is true even if the variable is quoted, as shown in the following example:

mysql> SELECT c1 FROM t;

+----+

| c1 |

+----+

|  0 |

+----+

|  1 |

+----+

2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SET @col = "c1";

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT @col FROM t;

+------+

| @col |

+------+

| c1   |

+------+

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT `@col` FROM t;

ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column '@col' in 'field list'

mysql> SET @col = "`c1`";

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT @col FROM t;

+------+

| @col |

+------+

| `c1` |

+------+

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

An exception to this principle that user variables cannot be used to provide identifiers, is when you are constructing a string for use as a prepared statement to execute later. In this case, user variables can be used to provide any part of the statement. The following example illustrates how this can be done:

mysql> SET @c = "c1";

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> SET @s = CONCAT("SELECT ", @c, " FROM t");

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> PREPARE stmt FROM @s;

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.04 sec)

Statement prepared

mysql> EXECUTE stmt;

+----+

| c1 |

+----+

|  0 |

+----+

|  1 |

+----+

2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt;

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
