I would use
SELECT id FROM table ORDER BY id LIMIT 0, 3;
in order to get the top 3 results. The key is Limit keyword.

Subject: [SQL] Which SQL query makes it possible to optain the 3
greatest values of an interger list ?
OO( Sql Problem )Oo.
That is to say a table of 5 inputs of 1 integer field :
Table = { (1); (12); (3); (9); (4) }
We want to obtain a result of 1 input of 3 fields,
corresponding to the 3 greatest values of Table,
by descending order :
Result = { (12; 9; 4) }
= Which SQL query makes it possible to obtain Result from Table ?
We certainly need to use sub-queries, but how ?
Thank you in advance for your help !
