Performing a query on a result from another query?

by

Usually you can plug a Query’s result (which is basically a table) as the FROM clause source
of another query, so something like this will be written:

SELECT COUNT(*), SUM(SUBQUERY.AGE) from
(
  SELECT availables.bookdate AS Date, DATEDIFF(now(),availables.updated_at) as Age
  FROM availables
  INNER JOIN rooms
  ON availables.room_id=rooms.id
  WHERE availables.bookdate BETWEEN '2009-06-25' AND date_add('2009-06-25', INTERVAL 4 DAY) AND rooms.hostel_id = 5094
  GROUP BY availables.bookdate
) AS SUBQUERY
