In SQL<\/a>, the ROW_NUMBER() function is used to assign a unique number to each row in the result set. The specific usage is as follows:<\/p>\n

SELECT<\/span> \r\n    ROW_NUMBER<\/span>() OVER<\/span> (ORDER<\/span> BY<\/span> column_name) AS<\/span> row_num,\r\n    column1, \r\n    column2, \r\n    ...\r\nFROM<\/span> \r\n    table_name;\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
In the example above, the ROW_NUMBER() function will sort the result set based on the column specified in the ORDER BY clause and assign a unique number to each row. This number will be returned as a new column named row_num.<\/p>\n
