I am using a query as below with not operator in where and limit. I am not able get correct sequencing of data (Without limit clause it is different and with limit ordering of data is something different).
SELECT DISTINCT(id) FROM `table` WHERE (1 AND id_type!=1) ORDER BY id desc LIMIT 2
Table Structure with sample data:
id id_type
1 1
2 1
3 2
4 3
5 3
6 3
Any Suggestions ?
Expected Output :
6
5
But When I remove the limit ordering is not same :
5
6
4
3
2
Note: This is just an sample data structure. Original table is contains much fields and different columns.

Maybe there is no problem at all. See this.
MariaDB [fbb]> SELECT * FROM `test`;
+----+---------+
| id | id_type |
+----+---------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 |
| 3 | 2 |
| 4 | 3 |
| 5 | 3 |
| 6 | 3 |
+----+---------+
6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
MariaDB [fbb]> SELECT DISTINCT(id) FROM `test` WHERE (1 AND id_type!=1) ORDER BY id desc LIMIT 2;
+----+
| id |
+----+
| 6 |
| 5 |
+----+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
