Syntax

1
2
3
SELECT attr_expr_list FROM table_reference
  SORT BY col_name
  [ASC | DESC] [,col_name [ASC | DESC],...];

Keyword

ASC/DESC: ASC sorts from the lowest value to the highest value. DESC sorts from the highest value to the lowest value. ASC is the default sort order.
SORT BY: Used together with GROUP BY to perform local sorting of a single column or multiple columns for PARTITION.

  SORT BY score;
