We welcome edits that make the post easier to understand and more valuable for readers. Because community members review edits, please try to make the post substantially better than how you found it, for example, by fixing grammar or adding additional resources and hyperlinks.

Thank you, this works! Any ideas what was wrong with my example and why did it not work? Could ROW_NUMBER() have been used instead?

@Javatar, Yes, You can use ROW_NUMBER() too to get this, but it is quite inefficient in ORACLE. Refer the below link to know the difference b/w ROWNUM and ROW_NUMBER. explainextended.com/2009/05/06/oracle-row_number-vs-rownum
