Paginate SQL Query Results for Web Displays
Efficiently retrieve subsets of data for pagination in web applications, improving performance and user experience when displaying large datasets to users.
SELECT id, name, created_at
FROM products
ORDER BY created_at DESC
LIMIT 10 OFFSET 20;
How it works: This query demonstrates how to paginate results using `LIMIT` and `OFFSET`. `LIMIT 10` retrieves a maximum of 10 rows, while `OFFSET 20` skips the first 20 rows, effectively fetching the 3rd page of results (assuming 10 items per page). This pattern is fundamental for displaying large lists of data in a manageable way on web pages, preventing overwhelming data loads.
