**SQL Code Description**
==========================
### Query Overview
The provided SQL code is used to retrieve distinct rows from a table named `DataSheet`.
### SQL Syntax Explanation
```sql
SELECT
DISTINCTROW
[column_list]
FROM
[table_name];
```
### Breakdown of the SQL Code
* **`SELECT`**: This keyword is used to select data from a database.
* **`DISTINCTROW`**: This clause is used in combination with `SELECT`. It ensures that only unique rows are returned. The exact behavior may vary depending on the database management system being used (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL).
* **`DataSheet.*`**: This refers to all columns (`\*`) from the `DataSheet` table.
* **`FROM DataSheet`**: This specifies that data should be retrieved from the `DataSheet` table.
### Output
The output of this SQL query will contain a list of unique rows from the `DataSheet` table. Each row will include all columns from the table.
**Example Use Case**
This query can be used in various scenarios, such as:
* Removing duplicate records from a table
* Generating a list of unique values for a column
* Identifying distinct data points in a dataset
Note that the behavior of `DISTINCTROW` may vary depending on the specific database management system being used. Some databases may use `DISTINCT ON` instead, which allows selecting distinct rows based on one or more specified columns.
