Hi,
just as I thought I had postgres mastered :) the ordering of strings is
causing me some confusion.
Can someone explain how the database orders strings in the ORDER BY command.
My example:
My database is encoding is UTF-8, and default language is english,
If I have a text column in a table with the following rows:
'a'
'A'
'~'
Then in UTF-8, I would expect the order to give me
'A'
'a'
'~'
But instead I get:
'~'
'a'
'A'
Is there anywhere in the documentation I can get a more detailed
explanation of this?
Thanks.
