Answer by Mehul Akabari for How do I limit the number of rows returned by an Oracle query after ordering?

select * FROM (SELECT    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY sal desc),* AS ROWID,  FROM EMP ) EMP  where ROWID=5

greater then values find out

select * FROM (SELECT        ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY sal desc),* AS ROWID,      FROM EMP ) EMP  where ROWID>5

less then values find out

select * FROM (SELECT        ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY sal desc),* AS ROWID,      FROM EMP ) EMP  where ROWID=5
