Efficient coding using Group By Rollup

I have come across this use case recently during answering a question in Salesforce stackexchange.

Use Case

Family records are being captured as follows:


Requirement is to show repetitive summations of Weight and Workout_hours both at GrandParent and Parent level.

Expected result should look like this:

Solutions

I could think of preparing the data using GROUP BY ROLLUP.

SOQL will look like this:


SELECT GrandParent__c, Parent__c, Child__c, SUM(Weight__c), SUM(Workout_Hours__c) ,
GROUPING (GrandParent__c) grpGrantPt, GROUPING(Parent__c) grpPT
FROM Family__c
GROUP BY ROLLUP(GrandParent__c, Parent__c,Child__c)
ORDER BY GrandParent__c, Parent__c, Child__c

Query Result

The above query returns expected result, only thing I need to eliminate first record which is giving total summation. and two columns GROUPING (GrandParent__c) grpGrantPt, GROUPING(Parent__c) grpPT which are not needed to show in visualforce.



Controller
Now it is time to prepare the data so that it can be displayed into visualforce in a most efficient way. For this I have taken a help of Wrapper class (FamilyData)

        lstFamilyRecord = new List<FamilyData>();
         AggregateResult[] lstFamily = [SELECT GrandParent__c, Parent__c, Child__c, SUM(Weight__c) weightTotal, SUM(Workout_Hours__c) whTotal ,

                wrapper.WorkoutHours = familyObj.get('whTotal')!=null? ((Decimal)familyObj.get('whTotal')).intValue() :null;
                lstFamilyRecord.add(wrapper);
            }
            firstRecord = false;
        }

        return null;
    }

    public class FamilyData

        public String Parent {get;set;}
        public String Child {get;set;}

Final Output

Conclusion

Usually, looking at the requirements we think of preparing the data and logic in apex or visualforce in a complex way. But if we can leverage SOQL logic efficiently like this we may end up nice implementation.
