As I know, from the relational database theory, a select
statement without an order by
clause should be considered has not particular order. But actually in SQL Server and Oracle (I've tested on those 2 platforms), if I query from a table without an order by
clause multiple times, I always get the results in the same order. Does this behavior can be relied on? Anyone can help to explain a little?
Thanks!
