If you want the unique rows, use distinct. If you want the highest score per person, you'll have to use group by with an aggregate function ;)
SELECT name, max(score) FROM table GROUP BY name ORDER BY score DESC LIMIT 0,3

lets say I have this data
id name score 1 dude1 9.1 2 dude2 9.5 3 dudette1 9.0 4 dude1 9.3 5 dudette1 8.5
And I want to select highest 3 scores:
SELECT score FROM table ORDER BY score DESC LIMIT 0,3
result will be
9.5 9.3 9.1
but how can I select both the name and the score and I only want one score per person
I can do: SELECT DISTINCT name FROM table ORDER BY score DESC LIMIT 0,3 this will give me the correct names in the correct order, but I want their score also
is this possible in one query ?
thanksuwel !
