Mysql的两种“排名第几且有可能为空的记录”写法（力扣176）

编写一个 SQL 查询，获取 Employee 表中第二高的薪水（Salary） 。

+----+--------+
| Id | Salary |
+----+--------+
| 1  | 100    |
| 2  | 200    |
| 3  | 300    |
+----+--------+

例如上述 Employee 表，SQL查询应该返回 200 作为第二高的薪水。如果不存在第二高的薪水，那么查询应返回 null。

+---------------------+
| SecondHighestSalary |
+---------------------+
| 200                 |
+---------------------+

答案1：使用临时表

SELECT
    (SELECT DISTINCT
            Salary
        FROM
            Employee
        ORDER BY Salary DESC
        LIMIT 1 OFFSET 1) AS SecondHighestSalary
;

答案2：使用IFNULL

select ifnull((select distinct salary from employee order by salary desc limit 1,1),null) as SecondHighestSalary ;
