I'm reading through some old code at work, and have noticed that there are s开发者_StackOverfloweveral views with an order by 1 clause. What does this accomplish?
Example:
Create view v_payment_summary AS
SELECT A.PAYMENT_DATE,
(SELECT SUM(paymentamount)
FROM payment B
WHERE PAYMENT_DATE = B.PAYMENT_DATE
and SOME CONDITION) AS SUM_X,
(SELECT SUM(paymentamount)
FROM payment B
WHERE PAYMENT_DATE = B.PAYMENT_DATE
and SOME OTHER CONDITION) AS SUM_Y
FROM payment A
ORDER BY 1;
This:
ORDER BY 1
...is known as an "Ordinal" - the number stands for the column based on the number of columns defined in the SELECT clause. In the query you provided, it means:
ORDER BY A.PAYMENT_DATE
It's not a recommended practice, because:
- It's not obvious/explicit
- If the column order changes, the query is still valid so you risk ordering by something you didn't intend
This is useful when you use set based operators e.g. union
select cola
from tablea
union
select colb
from tableb
order by 1;
it simply means sorting the view or table by 1st column of query's result.
I believe in Oracle it means order by column #1
This will sort your results by the first column returned. In the example it will sort by payment_date.
As mentioned in other answers ORDER BY 1 orders by the first column.
I came across another example of where you might use it though. We have certain queries which need to be ordered select the same column. You would get a SQL error if ordering by Name in the below.
SELECT Name, Name FROM Segment ORDER BY 1
ORDER BY 1 means order by 1st column of the result set
SELECT case when b.salary is null then a.employee_id else b.employee_id end employee_id FROM Employees a FULL JOIN Salaries b on b. employee_id = a.employee_id WHERE b.salary is null or a.employee_id is null order by 1
it simply means sorting the view or table by 1st column of the query's result. above this query, the 'employee_id' column is the first column but this column is selected from two tables that's why to use this type of sorting.
An example here from a sample test WAMP server database:-

And when it is given additional order by PRIVILEGE_TYPE or can be given order by 3 . Notice the 3rd column (PRIVILEGE_TYPE) getting sorted alphabetically.

DEFINITIVELY, a long answer and alot of scrolling.
Also I struggled hard to pass the output of the queries to a text file.
Here is how to do that without using the annoying into outfile thing-
tee E:/sqllogfile.txt;
And when you are done, stop the logging-
tee off;
Hope it adds more clarity.
