Select statement in SQLite recognizing row number

For example, SELECT * FROM table WHERE [row] BETWEEN x AND y

How can this be done? I’ve done some reading but haven’t found anything specifically correct.

Imagine a list where you want results paged by an X amount of results, so for page 10 you would need results from rows 10 * X to 10 * X + X. Rather than display ALL results in one go

For mysql you have limit, you can fire query as :

SELECT * FROM table limit 100` -- get 1st 100 records
SELECT * FROM table limit 100, 200` -- get 200 records beginning with row 101

For Oracle you can use rownum

See mysql select syntax and usage for limit here.

For SQLite, you have limit, offset. I haven’t used SQLite but I checked it on SQLite Documentation. Check example for SQLite here.
