I want to get the only 2 rows(limit or random) if the column "b" have
the same value. so, the result of the above is
a | b ---+---
X | A
X | A
D | B
H | B
P | C

how to do that, thanks all!



I don't understand what you want based on your description and your example results. What do you mean by "if the column `b' have the same value" ?


By the way, when you're posting this kind of question it's really helpful to send SQL code to set up your test environment. For example, if you had sent:


CREATE TABLE ab (a text, b text);

INSERT INTO ab (a,b) VALUES ('X','A'),('X','B'),('Y','A'),('D','B'),('H','B'),('E','B'),('D','B'),('P','C');



... then it would've saved the hassle of assembling a test table.
