<p>In this example, the SALARY descending order with the top 10 returned.
The RANK column shows the relative ranking of each salary. Notice that there
are two rows with the same salary at position 2. Each of those rows is assigned
the same rank value. The following row is assigned the value of 4. RANK returns
a value for a row that is one more than the total number of rows that precede
that row. There are gaps in the numbering sequence whenever there are duplicates.</p>
<p>In
contrast, the DENSE_RANK column shows a value of 3 for the row directly after
the duplicate rows. DENSE_RANK returns a value for a row that is one more
than the number of distinct row values that precede it. There will never be
gaps in the numbering sequence.</p>
<p>ROW_NUMBER returns a unique number for
each row. For rows that contain duplicate values according to the specified
ordering, the assignment of a row number is arbitrary; the row numbers could
be assigned in a different order for the duplicate rows when the query is
run another time.</p>
