SOQL: How to find parent records with no associated child?

Is there a way to get a list of Account records (parent) with no child records associated (Opportunity)  via SOQL?

I am trying to avoid doinf this in Apex, like getting the AccountId values from Opportunity and then query accounts where id not in this list.

 

Is it possible to get this list through SQOL?


Here is my query (I need only the accounts that have no associated Opportunity records):

 

SELECT a.Id, a.Name, (Select id from Opportunities) from Account a order by a.Name

 

Thanks,

Rodrigo

There's an example about midway down this blog post. It also might help more in general to understand how relationship queries work on our platform.

Best option would be, create a rollup field on account with Count(Opportunity) function. And then fire a query like
Select Id from Account where Rollup_Field__c = 0
