Hello All,

Hope this post finds you in good health and spirit.

Structured Query Language, abbreviated as SQL, is a domain-specific language used in programming and designed for managing data held in a relational database management system, or for stream processing in a relational data stream management system.

An good developer must be familiar with a few commands in SQL because it is such a strong development tool. The SQL queries listed below are important for coding and optimization. Almost every system that interacts with a SQL database will be affected by each query in the SQL tutorial.

Query for Outputting Sorted Data Using ‘Order By’

This query orders the results with respect to the attribute which is referenced to using “Order By” – so for example, if that attribute is an integer data type, then the result would either be sorted in ascending or descending order; likewise if the data type is a String then the result would be ordered in alphabetical order. The order by clause is used to sort the data from the table. The order by clause should always be used in the last of the SQL query.

SELECT EMP_ID, LAST_NAME FROM EMPLOYEE
WHERE CITY = 'Seattle' ORDER BY EMP_ID;

The ordering of the result can also be set manually, using “asc ” for ascending and “desc” for descending. Ascending (ASC) is the default condition for the ORDER BY clause. In other words, if users don’t specify ASC or DESC after the column name, then the result will be ordered in ascending order only.

SELECT EMP_ID, LAST_NAME FROM EMPLOYEE_TBL
WHERE CITY = 'INDIANAPOLIS' ORDER BY EMP_ID asc;

So, that’s all in this blog. I will meet you soon with next stuff .Have a nice day !!!
