How to select a random row from a Pervasive PSQL table

Question

在Pervasive PSQL中 （具体来说），使用sql select语句，如何从没有数字ID的表中选择随机行？

Answer 1

This seems to work for me using PSQL v11.30.

create table chartest (f1 char (10), f2 char(10), f3 char(10));
insert into chartest values ('a','a','a');
insert into chartest values ('b','b','b');
insert into chartest values ('c','c','c');
insert into chartest values ('d','d','d');
insert into chartest values ('e','e','e');
insert into chartest values ('f','f','f');
select top 1 * from chartest order by newid()

Which I ran several times and got:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
f1           f2           f3        
==========   ==========   ==========
e            e            e         
1 row was affected.
