--索引与排序 

drop table t purge;

create table t as select * from dba_objects ;

set autotrace traceonly

--oracle还算智能，不会傻到这里都去排序，做了查询转换，忽略了这个排序

select count(*) from t order by object_id;

 ---以下语句说明排序

set autotrace traceonly

set linesize 1000

drop table t purge;

create table t as select * from dba_objects;

--以下语句没有索引又有order by ，必然产生排序

select * from t where object_id>2 order by object_id;

---新增索引后，Oracle就有可能利用索引本身就有序的特点，利用索引来避免排序，如下：

create index idx_t_object_id on t(object_id);

set autotrace traceonly

select * from t where object_id>2 order by object_id;
