Solution postgres

SELECT 
	EXTRACT(YEAR FROM rental_ts) AS year,
	EXTRACT(MONTH FROM rental_ts) AS mon,
	COUNT(DISTINCT customer_id) AS uu_cnt
FROM rental
GROUP BY year, mon;
    

Explanation

This query is selecting data from a table called "rental" and extracting the year and month from a column called "rental_ts". It is also counting the number of distinct customer IDs and giving that count an alias "uu_cnt". The results are then grouped by year and month.

In summary, the query is counting the number of unique customers who rented something each month and displaying that count by year and month.
