LIMIT Clause
Use the LIMIT clause to limit the number of rows that a query returns.
[ LIMIT { count | ALL } ]
LIMIT ALL
means return all rows. LIMIT 0
means return no rows. Use an ORDER BY clause if you want a query to consistently return the same subset of rows.
For example:
premdb=# select * from match order by matchday limit 0;
seasonid | matchday | htid | atid | ftscore | htscore
----------+----------+------+------+---------+---------
(0 rows)
premdb=# select * from match order by matchday limit 3;
seasonid | matchday | htid | atid | ftscore | htscore
----------+---------------------+------+------+---------+---------
