The <code>LIMIT<\/code> clause is an extension of the <code>SELECT<\/code> statement that has the following syntax:<\/p>\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\" aria-describedby=\"shcb-language-1\" data-shcb-language-name=\"SQL (Structured Query Language)\" data-shcb-language-slug=\"sql\"><span><code class=\"hljs language-sql\"><span class=\"hljs-keyword\">SELECT<\/span> select_list\n<span class=\"hljs-keyword\">FROM<\/span> table_name\n<span class=\"hljs-keyword\">ORDER<\/span> <span class=\"hljs-keyword\">BY<\/span> sort_expression\n<span class=\"hljs-keyword\">LIMIT<\/span> n &#91;<span class=\"hljs-keyword\">OFFSET<\/span> m];\n<\/code><\/span><small class=\"shcb-language\" id=\"shcb-language-1\"><span class=\"shcb-language__label\">Code language:<\/span> <span class=\"shcb-language__name\">SQL (Structured Query Language)<\/span> <span class=\"shcb-language__paren\">(<\/span><span class=\"shcb-language__slug\">sql<\/span><span class=\"shcb-language__paren\">)<\/span><\/small><\/pre>\n\n\n<p>In this syntax:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><code>n<\/code> is the number of rows to be returned.<\/li><li><code>m<\/code> is the number of rows to skip before returning the <code>n<\/code> rows.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Another shorter version of <code>LIMIT<\/code> clause is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\" aria-describedby=\"shcb-language-2\" data-shcb-language-name=\"SQL (Structured Query Language)\" data-shcb-language-slug=\"sql\"><span><code class=\"hljs language-sql\">LIMIT m, n;\n<\/code><\/span><small class=\"shcb-language\" id=\"shcb-language-2\"><span class=\"shcb-language__label\">Code language:<\/span> <span class=\"shcb-language__name\">SQL (Structured Query Language)<\/span> <span class=\"shcb-language__paren\">(<\/span><span class=\"shcb-language__slug\">sql<\/span><span class=\"shcb-language__paren\">)<\/span><\/small><\/pre>\n\n\n<p>This syntax means skipping m rows and returning the next <code>n<\/code> rows from the result set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A table may store rows in an unspecified order.
