        Question:  I'm trying to retrieve some info from an Oracle database. I've got a table named Scoring with two fields - Name and Score. What I want to get is the highest score from the table and the name of the player.


    SELECT Name, Score
    FROM Scoring
    WHERE Score = (select Max(Score) from Scoring);
