Blog - https://knowledge360blog.blogspot.com... Notes - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GtJh... Description In this PostgreSQL tutorial, we explore a simple yet powerful SQL trick: sorting query results using column positions, such as ORDER BY 1, ORDER BY 2, and so on. This syntax allows you to sort results by referring to the position of a column in the SELECT list—not its actual name. It’s especially handy in scenarios like: Using GROUP BY with aggregate functions Sorting when using expressions or functions Making your queries more concise You’ll learn: How ORDER BY 1, ORDER BY 2 work When and why to use positional sorting Practical examples using a GROUP BY and aggregate query Caveats: readability concerns and overuse in complex queries 📌 Example: SELECT department, COUNT(*) FROM employees GROUP BY department ORDER BY 2 DESC; This sorts the output by the second column (COUNT(*)) in descending order. 💡 This is a neat tool for developers who want cleaner, shorter SQL—but it’s also important to know when not to use it. #PostgreSQL #SQL #OrderBy #ColumnPosition #OrderBy1 #PostgreSQLTutorial #LearnSQL #SQLTips #DataEngineering #BackendDevelopment #PostgreSQLExamples #GroupBy #SQLBestPractices PostgreSQL PostgreSQL Tutorial PostgreSQL Course PostgreSQL Beginner to Advanced PostgreSQL Full Course PostgreSQL Playlist Learn PostgreSQL PostgreSQL for Beginners PostgreSQL Zero to Hero PostgreSQL Training PostgreSQL Complete Guide PostgreSQL Full Tutorial Database Tutorial SQL Tutorial PostgreSQL Explained PostgreSQL Step by Step
