For me, it’s CTE’s. I find it amazing to complete a calculation with clear intermediate steps, and goes a long way towards convincing people to use SQL rather than Excel to perform calculations on large tables of data.

What construct do you like using on a daily basis?

    There was one time a good while back where I used window functions to perform edge detection in a dataset. I’ll see if I can dig up that query later.
