Description

The TABLESAMPLE statement is used to sample the table. It supports the following sampling methods:

  • TABLESAMPLE(x ROWS): Sample the table down to the given number of rows.
  • TABLESAMPLE(x PERCENT): Sample the table down to the given percentage. Note that percentages are defined as a number between 0 and 100.
  • TABLESAMPLE(BUCKET x OUT OF y): Sample the table down to a x out of y fraction.

Note: TABLESAMPLE returns the approximate number of rows or fraction requested.

Syntax

TABLESAMPLE ({ integer_expression | decimal_expression } PERCENT)
    | TABLESAMPLE ( integer_expression ROWS )
    | TABLESAMPLE ( BUCKET integer_expression OUT OF integer_expression )
