Sample Solution:
-- This SQL query calculates the count of non-null 'goal_score' values in the 'match_details' table
-- where certain conditions are met: 'win_lose' is 'W', 'decided_by' is not 'P', and 'goal_score' is 1.
SELECT COUNT(goal_score)
-- COUNT(goal_score) counts the number of non-null 'goal_score' values in the result set.
FROM match_details
-- 'match_details' is the name of the table being queried.
WHERE win_lose='W'
-- The WHERE clause filters rows where the 'win_lose' column has the value 'W'.
AND decided_by<>'P'
-- Further filters rows where the 'decided_by' column is not equal to 'P'.
AND goal_score=1;
-- Further filters rows where the 'goal_score' column has the value 1.
Sample Output:
count
-------
13
(1 row)
