Welcome to the forum. Please read our OraFAQ Forum Guide and How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read

I assume that this is a college homework assignment? You need to provide the CREATE TABLE statement and a few INSERT statements (or if you are using oine of the standard demo schemas, say so), the SQL you have tried so far, and the result you want. No-one will give you the full answer (I hope) but they will help.

Going by the information so far, it looks to me as just a simple SELECT with an ORDER BY clause.

SELECT * FROM emp WHERE sal BETWEEN <lower bound> AND <upper bound> ORDER BY sal;

The WHERE clause is to filter the rows, put required lower bound and upper bound to filter the rows based on salary. Order by is to sort the output, by default in ascending order.

Just in case, if you have started learning Oracle SQL, then spend good time reading the Database SQL Language Reference.

Thank you all for your responses.
Here is my expected output. First salary range 3001 - 5000, then 1000 - 3000, then 5001 - 10000.

empid name salary
1 david 3500
2 donald 4500
3 den 2000
4 steven 2200
5 Alexander 9000

something like this,

select t.*,
case
when salary between 3000 and 5000 then 1
when salary between 1000 and 3000 then 2
when salary between 5000 and 10000 then 3
else 99
end range
from employees t
order by range, 1, 2;

You are not beginner anymore after your first post and first feedback.
