Here is a solution based on nested subqueries. First, I added a few rows to catch a few more cases. Transaction 10, for example, should not be cancelled by transaction 12, because transaction 11 comes in between.
Here I have tried in MSSQL. Please check logic and try in mysql. I assume the logic is that make new transaction after first transaction cancel.
In your illustration, id = 7 is made after id=3 canceled.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
