row with minimum value of a column

Question

Having this selection:

id IDSLOT  N_UM
------------------------
1  1  6
2  6  2
3  2  1
4  4  1
5  5  1
6  8  1
7  3  1
8  7  1
9  9  1
10  10  0

I would like to get the row (only one) which has the minimun value of N_UM, in this case the row with id=10 (10 0).

Answer 1

I'd try this:

SELECT TOP 1 *
FROM TABLE1
ORDER BY N_UM

(using SQL Server)

Answer 2

Try this -

 select top 1 * from table where N_UM = (select min(N_UM) from table);

Answer 3

select id,IDSLOT,N_UM from table where N_UM = (select min(N_UM) from table));

Answer 4

Here is one approach

Create table #t (
id int,
IDSLOT int,
N_UM int
)
insert into #t ( id, idslot, n_um )
VALUES (1, 1, 6),
 (2,6,2),
 (3,2,1),
 (4,4,1),
 (5,5,1),
 (6,8,1),
 (7,3,1),
 (8,7,1),
 (9,9,1),
 (10, 10, 0)

 select Top 1 *
 from #t
 Where N_UM = ( select MIN(n_um) from #t )

Answer 5

select * from TABLE_NAME order by COLUMN_NAME limit 1
