How do you retrieve the last N records from a table?

Answer Posted / jyoti

We can retrieve last N records using Order by clause in the
query.

The ORDER BY clause using DESC
then give limits 0,N
for ex: SELECT * from table_name OREDER BY id DESC limit 0,10

It will return you last 10 records of the table.
