18. Quiz: ORDER BY

Practice

Let's get some practice using ORDER BY:

  1. Write a query to return the 10 earliest orders in the orders table. Include the id, occurred_at, and total_amt_usd.

  2. Write a query to return the top 5 orders in terms of largest total_amt_usd. Include the id, account_id, and total_amt_usd.

  3. Write a query to return the lowest 20 orders in terms of smallest total_amt_usd. Include the id, account_id, and total_amt_usd.

Remember, just because a query successfully runs, does not mean you have the correct results. To see if your query worked like you wanted it to, you need to examine your output to see if it satisfies the problem or the question. You can also compare your query and results with the solution on the following page (concept).

Workspace
