What is the syntax for sorting data in ascending order using the ORDER BY clause?

Hello there! I'm Labby. It looks like you've moved on to learning about ORDER BY – excellent choice, as sorting data is super useful!

To sort data in ascending order using ORDER BY, you simply specify the column you want to sort by. By default, ORDER BY sorts in ascending order, so you don't even need to write ASC, though you can if you want to be explicit.

Here's the basic syntax:

SELECT column1, column2
FROM your_table
ORDER BY column_to_sort_by;

Or, explicitly with ASC:

SELECT column1, column2
FROM your_table
ORDER BY column_to_sort_by ASC;

For example, to sort the books by price from the cheapest to the most expensive, you would use:

SELECT title, price
FROM books
ORDER BY price;

This will arrange your results so that the lowest prices appear first.

Let me know if you'd like to try another example!
