    Queries using order by keyword:

    The ORDER BY keyword is used to sort the result-set in ascending or descending order. The ORDER BY statement in sql is used to sort the fetched data in either ascending or descending according to one or more columns.
    • By default ORDER BY sorts the data in ascending order.
    • The keyword DESC to sort the data in descending order and the keyword ASC to sort in ascending order.
    ORDER BY Syntax:
    SELECT column1, column2, ... FROM table_name ORDER BY column1, column2, ... ASC|DESC;

    Example:
    1. Select * from student order by age;
    The above statement gives a result set ordering the records in ascending order on field age.
    2. Select * from student order by age desc;
    The above statement gives a result set ordering the records in descending order on field age.
    3. SELECT * FROM Student ORDER BY Age ASC , ROLL_NO DESC;
