我感兴趣的是从数据库表中选择第n行的一些(理想的)数据库不可知的方法。看看如何使用以下数据库的本机功能来实现这一点也很有趣:
SQL Server MySQL PostgreSQL SQLite 甲骨文
我目前正在SQL Server 2005中做以下事情，但我有兴趣看到其他更不可知论的方法:
WITH Ordered AS (
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY OrderID) AS RowNumber, OrderID, OrderDate
FROM Orders)
SELECT *
FROM Ordered
WHERE RowNumber = 1000000
以上SQL: Firoz Ansari的Weblog的功劳

SQL 2005及以上版本内置了这个特性。使用ROW_NUMBER()函数。它非常适合浏览<< Prev和Next >>样式的网页:
语法:
SELECT
*
FROM
(
SELECT
ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY MyColumnToOrderBy) AS RowNum,
*
FROM
Table_1
) sub
WHERE
RowNum = 23

下面是我最近为Oracle编写的一个sproc的通用版本，它允许动态分页/排序——HTH
-- p_LowerBound = first row # in the returned set; if second page of 10 rows,
-- this would be 11 (-1 for unbounded/not set)
-- p_UpperBound = last row # in the returned set; if second page of 10 rows,
-- this would be 20 (-1 for unbounded/not set)
OPEN o_Cursor FOR
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
Column1,
Column2
rownum AS rn
FROM
(
SELECT
tbl.Column1,
tbl.column2
FROM MyTable tbl
WHERE
tbl.Column1 = p_PKParam OR
tbl.Column1 = -1
ORDER BY
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'A', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 1, Column1, 'X'),'X'),
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'D', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 1, Column1, 'X'),'X') DESC,
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'A', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 2, Column2, sysdate),sysdate),
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'D', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 2, Column2, sysdate),sysdate) DESC
))
WHERE
(rn >= p_lowerBound OR p_lowerBound = -1) AND
(rn <= p_upperBound OR p_upperBound = -1);
SQL SERVER
从顶部选择第n条记录
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
ID, NAME, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ID) AS ROW
FROM TABLE
) AS TMP
WHERE ROW = n
从底部选择第n条记录
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
ID, NAME, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ID DESC) AS ROW
FROM TABLE
) AS TMP
WHERE ROW = n
没有什么花哨的，没有特殊的功能，以防你像我一样使用Caché……
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM (
SELECT TOP n * FROM <table>
ORDER BY ID Desc
)
ORDER BY ID ASC
假设您有一个可以信任的ID列或日期戳列。
难以置信，你能找到一个SQL引擎执行这个…
WITH sentence AS
(SELECT
stuff,
row = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Id)
FROM
SentenceType
)
SELECT
sen.stuff
FROM sentence sen
WHERE sen.row = (ABS(CHECKSUM(NEWID())) % 100) + 1
select * from
(select * from ordered order by order_id limit 100) x order by
x.order_id desc limit 1;
首先按升序选择前100行，然后按降序选择最后一行并限制为1行。然而，这是一个非常昂贵的语句，因为它访问了两次数据。
