How to Select Top 100 rows in Oracle?

Question

My requirement is to get each client\'s latest order, and then get top 100 records.

I wrote one query as below to get latest orders for each client. Internal query works

Answer 1

Try this:

   SELECT *
FROM (SELECT * FROM (
    SELECT 
      id, 
      client_id, 
      create_time,
      ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY client_id ORDER BY create_time DESC) rn 
    FROM order
  ) 
  WHERE rn=1
  ORDER BY create_time desc) alias_name
WHERE rownum <= 100
ORDER BY rownum;

Or TOP:

SELECT TOP 2 * FROM Customers; //But not supported in Oracle

NOTE: I suppose that your internal query is fine. Please share your output of this.
