10,030 Pointsquotes vs no-quotes with AS in SQL
SELECT SUM(cost) AS 'total_spent', user_id FROM orders GROUP BY user_id
ORDER BY 'total_spent' DESC;
is different than
SELECT SUM(cost) AS total_spent, user_id FROM orders GROUP BY user_id
ORDER BY total_spent DESC;
Why does it matter if the alias is a string?
