For this, let's use Google's libphonenumber, by proxy of pg-libphonenumber.

This currently installs the phone_number type which has comparison operators and equivalence testing and the functions. It stores the number in an international canonical...
The answer is you should be storing a canonical form of that data whenever possible, the problem with that is it may not work everywhere or even be possible within reason in AU.
@MaxVernon no, I'm saying the Australian phone number system requires a special magic sauce over the international canonicalized version or people in Australia may not be able to use it.
In fact here in Australia mobile phone numbers begin with "04" and the zero is important. If you store that as an INT you will lose that digit. Phone numbers should be strings. — RealityGone12 hours ago
That works because the database can move them out of UTC and make them universally useful to everyone (for most purposes). That's the part that is missing for AU phone numbers. We can store the phone numbers in a canonicallized version so everyone else can make sense of them, but they may not be useful to those inside of AU.

> To access numbers in the same area, it is necessary only to dial the eight digits concerned. To access a number in another "Area" it is necessary firstly to dial the "Trunk Access Code" of 0, followed by the area code (2, 3, 7 or 8) and then the specific "Local" number.
that would only seem empirically important if you live in an area where everyone thinks they are the center of the universe, and everything works the same way.
The Australian telephone numbering plan describes the allocation of phone numbers in Australia. It has changed many times, the most recent major reorganisation by the Australian Communications and Media Authority taking place between 1994 and 1998.
== Overview ==
For landline telephony, Australia is now geographically divided into four large areas, most of which cover more than one State and/or Territory. All "Local" telephone numbers within these four areas are of eight digits, consisting (mainly) of a four digit "Exchange" code plus a four digit number. The "National 'Significant' Numbe...
So let's say we have Fosters Beerland, and Outback Steak Place. To make a call from one to the other you would NEED the 0 if they're on different trunks. Yet, for me to call them from Oilville Texas, I would NOT NEED the 0.
ALSO, THE QUESTION IS ONLY TANGENTIALLY ABOUT PHONE NUMBERS. If you have a good way to solve the problem of storing formatting in the data, then you should answer the question.
@EvanCarroll you seem to think Jack and I have no idea about how to use the phone in "foreign" countries.
@EvanCarroll I agree with Max, you don't need to store the zero. "let's say we have Fosters Beerland, and Outback Steak Place. To make a call from one to the other you would NEED the 0 if they're on different trunks" — you could still use the Australian country code from inside Australia and would not need the zero then.
When I lived in Wales, I could literally call my next door neighbor by picking up the phone and dialing "603". If i wanted to talk to someone a mile away, I needed more digits.
sometimes with a leading zero, and no that's not the damn country code.

I want to convert below MSSQL query to Mysql query, especially with ROWNUMBER() and OVER().

@MaxVernon Good thing they didn't have the 50s era murican phone number system in place. My number? It's Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogogoch 31246
@McNets - Just added some more clarification. We only want the select the rows from which a quantity will be selected. If you want to make those two updates to your answer, ill mark it as the answer. – c_Reg_c_Lark Feb 1 at 20:27
Can you see deleted answers with your reputation level?
Whatever storage cost you're going to save is going to be dwarfed but all the times someone screws up reconstituting the phone number with formatting
When I used to send you junk mail, we were a rollodex as a service provider. The databases that stored phones or postal codes as ints were always troublesome
When our clients' customers were only US, all was well, but get this: Canadian zip codes have characters in them
@billinkc lol. But seriously, as you know, it's important to figure that stuff out properly. Under no circumstances shalt thou store dates in varchar columns.
No-one seems to have ever suggested storing phone numbers as dates, for some reason. It's true that you would have limitations with dates sand some numbers are just impossible to be stored that way. However, only think that you would always get them formatted in the output!
Why does Excel hate me? Whenever I paste in a date from SSMS it only shows me the time component. Every time, I have to change the format of those cells to yyy-mm-dd
