In SQL server I can say:
Select top 50 percent
How can I say bottom 50 percent?
EDIT – for the sake of an interesting question, if we assume he has a table with a primary key but wants the bottom 50% ordered in ascending primary key order. What would be the most efficient way of achieving that?
why not just change the sort order and keep TOP. Wouldn’t that accomplish the same thing?
