โœ… SQL Interview Challenge! ๐Ÿ“Š๐Ÿง 

๐—œ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ฟ: Find the average salary of employees in each department.

๐— ๐—ฒ: Using GROUP BY and AVG():
SELECT d.dept_name,
AVG(e.salary) AS avg_salary
FROM employees e
INNER JOIN departments d
ON e.dept_id = d.dept_id
GROUP BY d.dept_name;

โœ” Why it works:
โ€“ AVG() computes the mean salary per group, handling decimals nicely.
โ€“ GROUP BY clusters rows by department name for department-level aggregates.
โ€“ INNER JOIN links employee salaries to department names only for matching recordsโ€”add ORDER BY avg_salary DESC for ranked insights!
