My name is True (when I'm almost channeling Elvis Costello), so that's a bit of luck.

But your name is Stewart, not Alison.

Better get set for the name?

I'm assuming that, since it returns a bool, it will throw an exception if no name is present? Otherwise it would have returned a nullable bool ofcourse.

From the data type, I would assume that this is used in a query of some sort to signify whether to get a Name field from some data source.
Although, from your recent postings, I probably am way off base with that thought.

We are using Kendo UI components for an MVC application. Kendo's CSS has textbox width set as 12.4em. I want it to be 100%. So, in jQuery, I was setting it to 100%. But when the control is rendered, in the source I see it to be 110.4%.
After just looking at the screen for sometime (didn't knew what to do), I asked my colleague for help. And we both were confused. We then created a 100px wide div and added a textbox to it. Then, same jQuery function was called to change the width to 100% instead of default 12.4em. It still showed up as 110.4%.
Time not being on my side, I changed width in jQuery function to 89.6% and then it rendered as 100%.
We are still looking for a good detective to help solve the mysterious 10.4%.

The first thing I'd check would be the box-sizing:
box-sizing - CSS | MDN[^]
Box Sizing | CSS-Tricks[^]
The default is content-box, which means any padding and borders are added to the specified width.
If you change it to border-box, the width includes the padding and borders, which makes it much easier to reason about the layout.
html {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
*, *:before, *:after {
box-sizing: inherit;
}

Haven't used Kendo before but I've had issues with em and Bootstrap before because it's cumulative which is why I always use rem now if I can.

You'd think so. Except in SQL
We had a query:
Select count(*)
From TableOne
which returned, say, 500,000 records.
Next we added
Select count(*)
From TableOne
Left Join TableTwo On TableTwo.TableTwoID = TableOne.TableTwoID
Where TableTwo.TableTwoID is null or TableTwo.StringColumn <> 'value'
We're trying to find the number of records in TableOne which, when joined with TableTwo, either have no corresponding TableTwo row or the corresponding TableTwo row is not 'value'.
TableTwo.StringColumn is nullable.
The result? Adding the join resulted in 25K records. It should have been over 490K records.
The issue?
TableTwo.StringColumn <> 'value'
This comparison returns false if TableTwo.StringColumn is null. So one needs to use
IsNull(TableTwo.StringColumn, '') <> 'value'
to get the correct result.

Yes, and it is pretty correct.
NULL is not defined and can therefore not be compared to a value. Also not for nuallable type in c#.
|
|
|
|

Null most certainly does not equal a valid string value, right?
I never realised SQL could be so Javaesque

...except there's an "or" in there: logically, it shouldn't matter: if it's null, at least one of the conditions is true.
I have a feeling that "null=string" evaluates to null, and then "field is null" evaluates to Boolean, then "boolean or null" evaluates to null, which is why it doesn't work. But that's somewhat abstruse.
Which server is this: is it SQL Server or MySQL... or perhaps something else?
|
|
|
|
|
But the IS NULL check is made on TableTwo.TableTwoID
While string compare is made with TableTwo.StringColumn
So I see no incorrect handling, but of course it is not very intuitiv.

Yeah - you're right. Hadn't had coffee yet. LOL!

Pretty much, but it depends on the operator and the boolean value. If it's possible to short-circuit the operator, it doesn't matter if one condition is Null.
AND | True | False | Null
----------------------------
True | True | False | Null
False | False | False | False
Null | Null | False | Null
OR | True | False | Null
----------------------------
True | True | True | True
False | True | False | Null
Null | True | Null | Null
It's sometimes easier to think of Null as "unknown".

I know: I failed to see first time around that the comparisons were made on separate columns. Coffee. It's a mandatory component first thing in the morning. Of course, not having had any, I failed to realise that, too!

Exactly - in Codd's original work (which defined Relational Database Management Systems), this is referred to as null progagation.
Interesting, in The Relational Model for Database Management Systems V2, he introduced two null values one indicates the value is unknown and inapplicable (like the null behaviour you described), and the other indicating the value is unknown and applicable (which would give the behaviour Chris was expecting).
Sadly, to the best of my knowledge, no-one bothered pursuing any of the good ideas in there.

It's simple three-valued Boolean logic - what's the problem?!
Chris Maunder wrote: IsNull(TableTwo.StringColumn, '') <> 'value'
Except that's not SARGabale.
WHERE
TableTwo.StringColumn Is Null
Or
TableTwo.StringColumn != 'value'
(You can remove TableTwo.TableTwoID Is Null, because if that's true, TableTwo.StringColumn will also be Null.)

Either I've misunderstood your requirement, or that query isn't technically correct.
The query will find the records in TableOne which don't have any corresponding rows in TableTwo, and the records in TableOne which have at least one corresponding record in TableTwo where StringColumn is Null or not equal to 'value'. If there are multiple matching rows in TableTwo, then the rows from TableOne will be repeated.
Based on the description, I'd have thought something like this would be a better fit:
SELECT Count(1)
FROM TableOne
WHERE Not Exists
(
SELECT 1
FROM TableTwo
WHERE TableTwo.TableTwoID = TableOne.TableTwoID
And TableTwo.StringColumn = 'value'
)
That finds all the rows in TableOne which don't have a corresponding row in TableTwo with StringColumn set to 'value'.

I think this version reads cleaner (and without the quirks), but I'd be willing to bet the non-sub select version would run quicker.
