difference between group clause and order clause



difference between group clause and order clause..

Answer / sathy

group by clause is used to group the column values using
corresponding column values
group by cannot use where condition, instead of where it can
use having which has same function as where

order by is used to order the records in order ie.,
ascending or descending.
order by can use where, but not having having is only for
group by.

SET is the ANSI standard for variable assignment, SELECT is not. SET can only assign one variable at a time, SELECT can make multiple assignments at once. If assigning from a query, SET can only assign a scalar value. If the query returns multiple values/rows then SET will raise an error. SELECT will assign one of the values to the variable and hide the fact that multiple values were returned (so you'd likely never know why something was going wrong elsewhere - have fun troubleshooting that one) When assigning from a query if there is no value returned then SET will assign NULL, where SELECT will not make the assignment at all (so the variable will not be changed from it's previous value) As far as speed differences - there are no direct differences between SET and SELECT. However SELECT's ability to make multiple assignments in one shot does give it a slight speed advantage over SET.
