Assume that you have a list of numeric values mixed with numeric
values appended with characters – like 2a, 12, 5b, 5a, 10, 11, 1, 4b.
Sorting on a list like this would usually end up so:
mysql> SELECT version-> FROM version_sorting-> ORDER BY version;+---------++---------+ | version || 11 || 1 | | 10 | | 12 || 5b || 2a | | 4b | | 5a | +---------+8 rows in set (0.03 sec)
To sort the list based on the numeric values, simply do this:
mysql> SELECT version-> FROM version_sorting-> ORDER BY CAST(version AS UNSIGNED), version;+---------+ | version | +---------+ | 1 || 10 || 2a | | 4b | | 5a | | 5b | | 11 |8 rows in set, 4 warnings (0.00 sec)| 12 | +---------+
