Limit Record For Free

The SQL LIMIT statement restricts how many rows a query returns. A LIMIT statement appears at the end of a query, after any ORDER BY statements. You can start a LIMIT statement at a particular row using the offset argument.

The LIMIT clause is used to set an upper limit on the number of tuples returned by SQL. It is important to note that this clause is not supported by all SQL versions. The LIMIT clause can also be specified using the SQL 2008 OFFSET/FETCH FIRST clauses. The limit/offset expressions must be a non-negative integer.

In this syntax, the LIMIT n-1, 1 clause returns 1 row that starts at the row n. For example, the following query returns the employee information who has the second-highest income: SELECT emp_name, city, income FROM employees. ORDER BY income.

The LIMIT clause can restrict the result set of the query to some maximum number of rows. If this clause specifies a value smaller than the number of qualifying rows, the query returns only a subset of the rows that satisfy the selection criteria.

The limit keyword is used to limit the number of rows returned in a query result. SELECT {fieldname(s) } FROM tableName(s) is the SELECT statement containing the fields that we would like to return in our query. WHERE condition is optional but when supplied, can be used to specify a filter on the result set.

LIMIT is used to restrict the result set to a fixed number of rows. Naturally if the complete result set has less rows than the fix number we put in the LIMIT, the database returns fewer records than the limit number.
