row_number() OVER (PARTITION BY COL1 ORDER BY COL2) 表示根据COL1分组，在分组内部根据 COL2排序，而此函数计算的值就表示每组内部排序后的顺序编号（组内连续的唯一的).
与rownum的区别在于：使用rownum进行排序的时候是先对结果集加入伪列rownum然后再进行排序，而此函数在包含排序从句后是先排序再计算行号码．
row_number()和rownum差不多，功能更强一点（可以在各个分组内从1开时排序）．
rank()是跳跃排序，有两个第二名时接下来就是第四名（同样是在各个分组内）．
dense_rank()l是连续排序，有两个第二名时仍然跟着第三名。相比之下row_number是没有重复值的 ．
lag（arg1,arg2,arg3):
arg1是从其他行返回的表达式 arg2是希望检索的当前行分区的偏移量。是一个正的偏移量，时一个往回检索以前的行的数目。 arg3是在arg2表示的数目超出了分组的范围时返回的值。看几个SQL语句:
语句一:
select row_number() over(order by sale/cnt desc) as sort, sale/cnt
from ( select -60 as sale,3 as cnt from dual union select 24 as sale,6 as cnt from dual union select 50 as sale,5 as cnt from dual union select -20 as sale,2 as cnt from dual union select 40 as sale,8 as cnt from dual);执行结果:
SORT SALE/CNT
---------- ---------- 1 10 2 5 3 4 4 -10 5 -20语句二:查询员工的工资,按部门排序
select ename,sal,row_number() over (partition by deptno order by sal desc) as sal_order from scott.emp;
执行结果:
ENAME SAL SAL_ORDER
-------------------- ---------- ---------- KING 5000 1 CLARK 2450 2 MILLER 1300 3 SCOTT 3000 1 FORD 3000 2 JONES 2975 3 ADAMS 1100 4 SMITH 800 5 BLAKE 2850 1 ALLEN 1600 2 TURNER 1500 3 WARD 1250 4 MARTIN 1250 5 JAMES 950 6已选择14行。
语句三:查询每个部门的最高工资
select deptno,ename,sal from
(select deptno,ename,sal,row_number() over (partition by deptno order by sal desc) as sal_order from scott.emp) where sal_order <2;执行结果:
DEPTNO ENAME SAL
---------- -------------------- ---------- 10 KING 5000 20 SCOTT 3000 30 BLAKE 2850已选择3行。
语句四：
select deptno,sal,rank() over (partition by deptno order by sal) as rank_order from scott.emp order by deptno;
执行结果:
DEPTNO SAL RANK_ORDER
---------- ---------- ---------- 10 1300 1 10 2450 2 10 5000 3 20 800 1 20 1100 2 20 2975 3 20 3000 4 20 3000 4 30 950 1 30 1250 2 30 1250 2 30 1500 4 30 1600 5 30 2850 6已选择14行。
语句五：
select deptno,sal,dense_rank() over(partition by deptno order by sal) as dense_rank_order from scott.emp order by deptn;
执行结果：
DEPTNO SAL DENSE_RANK_ORDER
---------- ---------- ---------------- 10 1300 1 10 2450 2 10 5000 3 20 800 1 20 1100 2 20 2975 3 20 3000 4 20 3000 4 30 950 1 30 1250 2 30 1250 2 30 1500 3 30 1600 4 30 2850 5已选择14行。
语句六：
select deptno,ename,sal,lag(ename,1,null) over(partition by deptno order by ename) as lag_ from scott.emp order by deptno;
执行结果：
DEPTNO ENAME SAL LAG_
---------- -------------------- ---------- -------------------- 10 CLARK 2450 10 KING 5000 CLARK 10 MILLER 1300 KING 20 ADAMS 1100 20 FORD 3000 ADAMS 20 JONES 2975 FORD 20 SCOTT 3000 JONES 20 SMITH 800 SCOTT 30 ALLEN 1600 30 BLAKE 2850 ALLEN 30 JAMES 950 BLAKE 30 MARTIN 1250 JAMES 30 TURNER 1500 MARTIN 30 WARD 1250 TURNER已选择14行。
