GROUP BY, ORDER & LIMIT ?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 







Suppose table X has two columns: class (TEXT) and size (INT).  I want a listing showing the (up to) 5 largest values of "size" for each value of "class" (for some values of "class" the total number of available records may be less than 5).

What would be the simplest way to achieve such a listing?  It seems like something one could do with GROUP BY, ORDER, and LIMIT, but I can't figure out the right syntax for this query.

Thanks!
