# Write your MySQL query statement below
SELECT s2.Name Department,s1.Name Employee,s1.Salary
FROM Employee s1,Department s2
WHERE s1.DepartmentId=s2.Id AND 3>(
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT s3.Salary)
FROM Employee s3
WHERE s1.Salary<s3.Salary AND s1.DepartmentId=s3.DepartmentId
);

说明

  • WHERE后半部分其实是查找比当前人员工资高的人员有一类,如果为2类,则当前人员就是工资第三高的一批人,以此类推。
