In MariaDB, ROWNUM() is a built-in function that returns the current number of accepted rows in the current context. Its main purpose is to emulate the ROWNUM pseudo column in Oracle.
ROWNUM() can be used in a way that has a similar effect to the LIMIT clause – to limit the number of results returned by a query.
When in Oracle mode, it can be called as ROWNUM (i.e. without the parentheses).
The ROWNUM() function is supported from MariaDB 10.6.1.
In MariaDB, VERSION() is a built-in function that returns the MariaDB server version.
