MySQL - Select most recent date out of a set of several possible timestamps?
问题 I would like to know if this is possible using a mysql query: I have a table called updates. In the updates table I have 2 columns, id and timestamp . I have 5 rows each with the same id but with different date timestamps. An example of this timestamp would be the value: 2012-08-04 23:14:09 . I would like to select only the most recent timestamp value out of the 5 results. This could also be explained by saying that I would like to select the value that is closest to the current date and time
