+----------------+---------+ | Column Name | Type | +----------------+---------+ | session_id | int | | book_id | int | | reader_name | varchar | | pages_read | int | | session_rating | int | +----------------+---------+ session_id is the unique ID for this table. Each row represents a reading session where someone read a portion of a book. session_rating is on a scale of 1-5.
Write a solution to find books that have polarized opinions - books that receive both very high ratings and very low ratings from different readers.
at least one rating ≥ 4
and at least one rating ≤ 2
5
reading sessionshighest_rating - lowest_rating
)ratings ≤ 2 or ≥ 4
) divided by total sessionspolarization score ≥ 0.6
(at least 60%
extreme ratings)Return the result table ordered by polarization score in descending order, then by title in descending order.
The result format is in the following example.
