Description
The LIMIT
clause is used to constrain the number of rows returned by
the SELECT statement. In general, this clause
is used in conjunction with ORDER BY to
ensure that the results are deterministic.
Syntax
LIMIT { ALL | integer_expression }
Parameters
-
ALL
If specified, the query returns all the rows. In other words, no limit is applied if this option is specified.
-
integer_expression
Specifies a foldable expression that returns an integer.
Examples
CREATE TABLE person (name STRING, age INT);
INSERT INTO person VALUES
('Zen Hui', 25),
('Anil B', 18),
('Shone S', 16),
('Mike A', 25),
('John A', 18),
('Jack N', 16);
-- Select the first two rows.
SELECT name, age FROM person ORDER BY name LIMIT 2;
+------+---+
| name|age|
+------+---+
|Anil B| 18|
|Jack N| 16|
+------+---+
-- Specifying ALL option on LIMIT returns all the rows.
SELECT name, age FROM person ORDER BY name LIMIT ALL;
+-------+---+
| name|age|
+-------+---+
| Anil B| 18|
| Jack N| 16|
| John A| 18|
| Mike A| 25|
|Shone S| 16|
|Zen Hui| 25|
+-------+---+
-- A function expression as an input to LIMIT.
SELECT name, age FROM person ORDER BY name LIMIT length('SPARK');
+-------+---+
| name|age|
+-------+---+
| Anil B| 18|
| Jack N| 16|
| John A| 18|
| Mike A| 25|
|Shone S| 16|
+-------+---+
-- A non-foldable expression as an input to LIMIT is not allowed.
SELECT name, age FROM person ORDER BY name LIMIT length(name);
