so if i have a list of records...
id name other
1 water H2O
2 water aqua
3 water liquid
so i want to select other where name = 'water'
but i want to only return 1 result, and for that result to be a random
value. is there a way to sort by rand() ?
Yes.
Funnily enough:
select * from table order by rand();
If you only want one result:
select * from table order by rand() limit 1;
