swap two columns values in sql

There are various methods on net to swap values of two column, tried many of them. This one seems to be working for me:

UPDATE table_name SET A=B, B=@temp WHERE (@temp:=A) ;

Some of the queries that don't work are:

1. DECLARE @temp AS varchar(10)
UPDATE Employee1 SET @temp=LastName, LastName=FirstName, FirstName=@temp

2. UPDATE Employee1 SET LastName=FirstName, FirstName=LastName


NOTE: talking about sql query only, not including SAS etc

How to do mass insert in redis

A basic and fairly easy way to do mass insert in redis : Command to use: echo -e "$(cat redis_mass_insert.txt)" | redis-cli --pipe Content of file "redis_mass_insert.txt": *3\r\n$5\r\nlpush\r\n$5\r\nu:m:1\r\n$5\r\nvalu1\r\n*3\r\n$5\r\nlpush\r\n$5\r\nu:m:1\r\n$7\r\nmyvalue\r\n Result: All data transferred. Waiting for the last reply... ERR unknown command ' *2' ERR unknown command '$4' ERR wrong number of arguments for 'echo' command ERR unknown command '$20' ERR unknown command ' A�j d�Q;yT��าก �h>' NOTE: command line will show error but in actual the data is transferred and you can check it by entering in redis. Here's the snapshot of the whole procedure: To check how the command is responding: use hexdump -C Command: echo -n $'$3\r\nset\r\n$3\r\nkey\r\n$5\r\nvalue\r\n ' | hexdump -C whose output will be something like 00000000 24 33 0d 0a 73 65 74 0d 0a 24 33 0d 0a 6b 65 79 |$3..set.....
