SELECT nickname, score
FROM Scores
WHERE score=(
SELECT MAX (score) AS best
FROM Scores )
GROUP BY nickname, score
ORDER BY score DESC

Answer 1

Danielle Strahan it is

SELECT nickname, max(score) as best
FROM scores
GROUP By nickname
ORDER By best DESC

You went a tad bit off course with adding the WHERE score=()

Then the GROUP By you added score and the ORDER By is by best not score in DESC ( descending order )

Answer 7

El objetivo de tu consulta parece ser obtener los apodos y las puntuaciones más altas de la tabla "Scores". Sin embargo, el uso de `GROUP BY` no es necesario aquí si solo quieres obtener las puntuaciones máximas. Además, la cláusula `WHERE` puede simplificarse. Intenta con esta versión:

```sql
SELECT nickname, score
FROM Scores
WHERE score = (SELECT MAX(score) FROM Scores)
ORDER BY nickname;
```

Esta consulta selecciona los apodos y las puntuaciones de la tabla "Scores" donde la puntuación es igual a la máxima puntuación encontrada en la misma tabla. Luego, ordena los resultados por el apodo.
