Previous Page: sort the data in the reverse order, select only the first {rows} rows, where the {unique_key} is less than {first_val} (the value of the {unique_key} of the first row in the current page), and sort the result in the correct order; Read and send to display all the rows read from the database
An ORDER BY clause in SQL specifies that a SQL SELECT statement returns a result set with the rows being sorted by the values of one or more columns.

A database object is a structure for storing, managing and presenting application- or user-specific data in a database.Depending on the database management system (DBMS), many different types of database objects can exist.
creates two different and incompatible types. The SQL distinct types use name equivalence not structural equivalence like typedefs in C. It's still possible to perform compatible operations on (columns or data) of distinct types by using an explicit type CAST. Few SQL systems support these. IBM Db2 is one those supporting them. [6]
SQL-92 was the third revision of the SQL database query language.Unlike SQL-89, it was a major revision of the standard. Aside from a few minor incompatibilities, the SQL-89 standard is forward-compatible with SQL-92.
