what is the use of rank function?

Answer Posted / soujanya

RANK calculates the rank of a value in a group of values.
Rows with equal values for the ranking criteria receive the
same rank. Oracle then adds the number of tied rows to the
tied rank to calculate the next rank. Therefore, the ranks
may not be consecutive numbers.

eg: SELECT RANK(15500, .05) WITHIN GROUP
(ORDER BY salary, commission_pct) "Rank"
FROM employees;
