mysql 选取第一个结果,如何从mysql结果中选择第一个和最后一个数据行？

SELECT * from User returns 75 users. Is it possible to select 1st user, and 75th user without doing while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) ?? and how?

UPDATE

Just to be more clear: I need to have SELECT * as I need the first and 75th user before I do while mysql_fetch_assoc so ASC, DESC, LIMIT answers not required.

解决方案SELECT * from User LIMIT 1

UNION

SELECT * from User LIMIT 74,1

Edit

@Kay: PHP can't change the internal order of the resultset after it's created.

If the query always returns 75 rows then the only way to access the 1st and the 75th before anything else would be to use mysql_data_seek which moves the internal result pointer:

$result = mysql_query('SELECT * from User');

mysql_data_seek($result, 1);

$row1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);

mysql_data_seek($result, 75);

$row75 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);

Note that if the above is followed by a while, the pointer must be reset to a suitable position.
