Task 139:

Room Types in Every Building

MariaDB

Facilities management plans the timetable and needs a full picture of the rooms. For every building and every room type in the rooms table, count the rooms of that type in the building. A building–type pair without rooms must be shown with 0.
Output columns:
- building
- room_type
- rooms - the number of rooms

Sort the result by building, then by room_type.

Expected result Columns: 3 · Rows: 35

building	room_type	rooms

Sample rows open after wrong checks: 0 of 2

Write your query below and click "Check it!". Tables are described in the right pane.

University Database: table structure and schema overview

University DB is a modern MariaDB 11.7+ sample database for learning SQL — designed as a feature-rich replacement for the classic Sakila database.

It covers all significant MariaDB datatypes including VECTOR(1536), JSON, SET, and FULLTEXT indexes, is fully normalized to 3NF, and ships with enough data for both beginner exercises and complex analytical queries.

The University database contains 16 main tables describing a university's academic structure — departments, faculty, students, courses, enrollments, research projects, and more.
