Answer / ravikumar.s

select * from (select * from tblname order by datecolumn
asc) where rownum<=10;

There is no keyword in oracle like limit, only we can fetch
through rownum

in mysql only this limit is available
ex: select col from tbl limit 20;

in sql server we use Top keyword instead of limit;

Answer / sonu

Answer of Ravikumar.s is almost write but there is slightly
mistake, he should write 'desc' keyword instead of 'asc'
because question for latest records not for the oldest
records. So, the correct answer is

select * from (select * from tablename order by datecolumn
desc) where rownum<=10;


One keyword makes the statement and result write or wrong
so, use these carefully.
