【SQL】含有NULL值的排序

查询结果中有NULL值，当进行升序排序时，NULL值默认为“最大值”，排在最后面。要想改变NULL值的显示顺序，只需要在SQL语句后面加上NULLS FIRST（排在前面），NULLS LAST（排在后面）。

例如：

1）升序排列，NUll值排在前面

SQL> SELECT DISTINCT department_id FROM employees ORDER BY 1 NULLS FIRST;

 

DEPARTMENT_ID

-------------

 

           10

           20

           30

           40

           50

           60

           70

           80

           90

          100

          110

 

12 rows selected.

2）降序排列，NULL值排在后面

SQL> SELECT DISTINCT department_id FROM employees ORDER BY 1 DESC NULLS LAST;

 

DEPARTMENT_ID

-------------

          110

          100

           90

           80

           70

           60

           50

           40

           30

           20

           10

 

 

12 rows selected.
