在ORACLE中实现SELECT TOP N的方法
1.在ORACLE中实现SELECT TOP N

由于ORACLE不支持SELECT TOP语句，所以在ORACLE中经常是用ORDER BY跟ROWNUM的组合来实现SELECT TOP N的查询。

简单地说，实现方法如下所示：

SELECT　列名１．．．列名ｎ　FROM

(SELECT　列名１．．．列名ｎ　FROM 表名 ORDER BY 列名１．．．列名ｎ)

WHERE ROWNUM <= N（抽出记录数）

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC

下面举个例子简单说明一下。

顾客表customer(id,name)有如下数据：

ID NAME

01 first

02 Second

03 third

04 forth

05 fifth

06 sixth

07 seventh

08 eighth

09 ninth

10 tenth

11 last

则按NAME的字母顺抽出前三个顾客的SQL语句如下所示：

SELECT * FROM

(SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER ORDER BY NAME)

WHERE ROWNUM <= 3

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC

输出结果为：

ID NAME

08 eighth

05 fifth

01 first

2.在TOP N纪录中抽出第M（M <= N）条记录

在得到了TOP N的数据之后，为了抽出这N条记录中的第M条记录，我们可以考虑从ROWNUM着手。我们知道，ROWNUM是记录表中数据编号的一个隐藏子段，所以可以在得到TOP N条记录的时候同时抽出记录的ROWNUM，然后再从这N条记录中抽取记录编号为M的记录，即使我们希望得到的结果。

从上面的分析可以很容易得到下面的SQL语句。

SELECT 列名１．．．列名ｎ FROM

(

SELECT ROWNUM RECNO, 列名１．．．列名ｎFROM

(SELECT 列名１．．．列名ｎ FROM 表名 ORDER BY 列名１．．．列名ｎ)

WHERE ROWNUM <= N（抽出记录数）

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC

)

WHERE RECNO = M（M <= N）

同样以上表的数据为基础，那么得到以NAME的字母顺排序的第二个顾客的信息的SQL语句应该这样写：

SELECT ID, NAME FROM

(

SELECT ROWNUM RECNO, ID, NAME FROM

(SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER ORDER BY NAME)

WHERE ROWNUM <= 3

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC )

WHERE RECNO = 2

结果则为：

ID NAME

05 fifth

3.抽出按某种方式排序的记录集中的第N条记录

在2的说明中，当M = N的时候，即为我们的标题讲的结果。实际上，2的做法在里面N>M的部分的数据是基本上不会用到的，我们仅仅是为了说明方便而采用。

如上所述，则SQL语句应为：

SELECT 列名１．．．列名ｎ FROM

(

SELECT ROWNUM RECNO, 列名１．．．列名ｎFROM

(SELECT 列名１．．．列名ｎ FROM 表名 ORDER BY 列名１．．．列名ｎ)

WHERE ROWNUM <= N（抽出记录数）

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC

)

WHERE RECNO = N

那么，2中的例子的SQL语句则为：

SELECT ID, NAME FROM

(

SELECT ROWNUM RECNO, ID, NAME FROM

(SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER ORDER BY NAME)

WHERE ROWNUM <= 2

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC

)

WHERE RECNO = 2

结果为：

ID NAME

05 fifth

4.抽出按某种方式排序的记录集中的第M条记录开始的X条记录

3里所讲得仅仅是抽取一条记录的情况，当我们需要抽取多条记录的时候，此时在2中的N的取值应该是在N >= (M + X - 1)这个范围内，当让最经济的取值就是取等好的时候了的时候了。当然最后的抽取条件也不是RECNO = N了，应该是RECNO BETWEEN M AND (M + X - 1)了，所以随之而来的SQL语句则为：

SELECT 列名１．．．列名ｎ FROM

(

SELECT ROWNUM RECNO, 列名１．．．列名ｎFROM

(

SELECT 列名１．．．列名ｎ FROM 表名 ORDER BY 列名１．．．列名ｎ)

WHERE ROWNUM <= N （N >= (M + X - 1)）

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC

)

WHERE RECNO BETWEEN M AND (M + X - 1)

同样以上面的数据为例，则抽取NAME的字母顺的第2条记录开始的3条记录的SQL语句为：

SELECT ID, NAME FROM

(

SELECT ROWNUM RECNO, ID, NAME FROM

(SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER ORDER BY NAME)

WHERE ROWNUM <= (2 + 3 - 1)

ORDER BY ROWNUM ASC

)

WHERE RECNO BETWEEN 2 AND (2 + 3 - 1)

注意:

sql各子句的执行顺序：

1. FROM
2. WHERE
3. GROUP BY
4. HAVING
5. SELECT
6. ORDER BY
