Search a range of cases/records

Greetings:

I have a dataset of two columns:
price amount
99.5   10000
99.7   8000
100    3000
100.1  1000
100.5  500
100.8  1500
105    2000
200    100
etc
I have to write a SQL query on how many price tags are within [price+-1]
such as 98.5 to 100.5, 100+-1,etc for each records.
Here I know the price tags counts are 5 for 99.5-100.5, 5 for
99.7-100.7, 6 for 99-101, etc
How should I do for all of the records?

Thanks in advance.

Wei

Perhaps something like below:

test=*# select s,  sum(case when price.price between s-0.5 and s+0.5 then 1 else 0 end) as "+-1",  sum(case when
price.pricebetween s-1.5 and s+1.5 then 1 else 0 end) as "+-2" 
 
from price, 
generate_series(95, 105) as s 
group by s 
order by s; s  | +-1 | +-2
-----+-----+----- 95 |   0 |   0 96 |   0 |   0 97 |   0 |   0 98 |   0 |   1 99 |   1 |   5100 |   5 |   6101 |   2 |
6102 |   0 |   2103 |   0 |   0104 |   0 |   1105 |   1 |   1
