Example 1:

Input: 
Visits
+----------+-------------+
| visit_id | customer_id |
+----------+-------------+
| 1    | 23      |
| 2    | 9       |
| 4    | 30      |
| 5    | 54      |
| 6    | 96      |
| 7    | 54      |
| 8    | 54      |
+----------+-------------+
Transactions
+----------------+----------+--------+
| transaction_id | visit_id | amount |
+----------------+----------+--------+
| 2        | 5    | 310  |
| 3        | 5    | 300  |
| 9        | 5    | 200  |
| 12       | 1    | 910  |
| 13       | 2    | 970  |
+----------------+----------+--------+
Output: 
+-------------+----------------+
| customer_id | count_no_trans |
+-------------+----------------+
| 54      | 2        |
| 30      | 1        |
| 96      | 1        |
+-------------+----------------+
Explanation: 
Customer with id = 23 visited the mall once and made one transaction during the visit with id = 12.
Customer with id = 9 visited the mall once and made one transaction during the visit with id = 13.
Customer with id = 30 visited the mall once and did not make any transactions.
Customer with id = 54 visited the mall three times. During 2 visits they did not make any transactions, and during one visit they made 3 transactions.
Customer with id = 96 visited the mall once and did not make any transactions.
As we can see, users with IDs 30 and 96 visited the mall one time without making any transactions. Also, user 54 visited the mall twice and did not make any transactions.

Solutions

Solution 1: Subquery + Grouping

We can use a subquery to first find all visit_ids that have not made any transactions, and then group by customer_id to count the number of times each customer has not made any transactions.

# Write your MySQL query statement below
SELECT customer_id, COUNT(1) AS count_no_trans
FROM Visits
WHERE visit_id NOT IN (SELECT visit_id FROM Transactions)
GROUP BY 1;

Solution 2: Left Join + Grouping

We can also use a left join to join the Visits table and the Transactions table on visit_id, and then filter out the records where amount is NULL. After that, we can group by customer_id to count the number of times each customer has not made any transactions.

# Write your MySQL query statement below
SELECT customer_id, COUNT(1) AS count_no_trans
FROM
  Visits
  LEFT JOIN Transactions USING (visit_id)
WHERE amount IS NULL
GROUP BY 1;
