“GROUP BY” in ranges?
SUGGESTED QUERY

SELECT
    CONCAT(A.ndx,' - ',A.ndx+9) "score range",
    IFNULL(B.rowcount ,0) "number of occurrences"
FROM
(
    SELECT 0 ndx UNION SELECT 10 UNION SELECT 20 UNION
    SELECT 30 UNION SELECT 40 UNION SELECT 50 UNION SELECT 60
    UNION SELECT 70 UNION SELECT 80 UNION SELECT 90
) A
LEFT JOIN
(
    SELECT ndx,COUNT(1) rowcount FROM
    (SELECT FLOOR(score/10)*10 ndx FROM yoshi_scores) AA
    GROUP BY ndx
) B USING (ndx);


SAMPLE DATA

use test
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS yoshi_scores;
CREATE TABLE yoshi_scores
(id int not null auto_increment,
score int not null,primary key (id), key (score));
INSERT INTO yoshi_scores (score) VALUES
(97),(74),(22),(98),(65),(62),(47),(64),(82),( 8),(60),(12),
(27),(14),(13),(28),(60),(12),(27),(34),(32),(89),(15),( 2);


Data would look like this

mysql&gt; SELECT * FROM yoshi_scores ORDER BY id;
+----+-------+
| id | score |
+----+-------+
|  1 |    97 |
|  2 |    74 |

Why is the Query designed this way ??? Look at the first subquery

(
    SELECT 0 ndx UNION SELECT 10 UNION SELECT 20 UNION
    SELECT 30 UNION SELECT 40 UNION SELECT 50 UNION SELECT 60
    UNION SELECT 70 UNION SELECT 80 UNION SELECT 90
) A


I performed a LEFT JOIN of this to the counts for a reason. Notice that the dataset has nothing in the 50 - 59 range. Its count would not show up in the second query:

mysql&gt; SELECT ndx,COUNT(1) rowcount FROM
    -&gt; (SELECT FLOOR(score/10)*10 ndx FROM yoshi_scores) AA
    -&gt; GROUP BY ndx;
+------+----------+
| ndx  | rowcount |
+------+----------+
|    0 |        2 |
|   10 |        5 |
|   20 |        4 |
|   30 |        2 |
|   40 |        1 |
|   60 |        5 |
|   70 |        1 |
|   80 |        2 |
|   90 |        2 |

I am sure you wanted the range 50 - 59 to show up, so the query is designd to catch all ranges. Any missing range is essentially defaulted to zero.

GIVE IT A TRY !!!

CAVEAT: Unfortunately, the first subquery requires you to hardcode it. It will be the only hardcoding required to make it work.
