Based on your input, your query result is as follows:

---|---|---|
SQL | hard | 81.7 |
From the examination_info
table, it can be seen that paper 9001 is a high-difficulty SQL paper, and the scores for this paper are [80, 81, 84, 90, 50]. After removing the highest and lowest scores, we have [80, 81, 84], and the average score is 81.6666667, which rounds to 81.7 when keeping one decimal place.
Input Description:
The input data must contain at least 3 valid scores.
Approach 1: To find high-difficulty SQL papers, you need to join the examination_info
