MySQL ORDER BY

The MySQL ORDER BY Keyword

The ORDER BY keyword is used to sort the result-set in ascending or descending order.

The ORDER BY keyword sorts the records in ascending order by default. To sort the records in descending order, use the DESC keyword.

Syntax:

SELECT column1, column2, ...
FROM table_name
ORDER BY column1, column2, ... ASC|DESC;
