## What it does
**SQL Query Description**
==========================
### Overview
This SQL query retrieves a list of unique machine details from the `Machines` table, ordered by part number and machine name.
### Breakdown
#### SELECT Clause
```sql
SELECT DISTINCTROW
```
The `DISTINCTROW` keyword is used to ensure that each row returned in the result set contains unique values for all columns specified. This clause eliminates duplicate rows from the result set.
#### Columns Specified
```sql
Machines.PartNumber, Machines.MachineName, Machines.CycleTime, Machines.Tool, Machines.Prime
```
The query selects specific columns from the `Machines` table:
* `PartNumber`: a unique identifier for each machine
* `MachineName`: the name of the machine
* `CycleTime`: the time taken by the machine to complete a cycle
* `Tool`: the tool used in the machine
* `Prime`: an unknown column ( possibly used as a flag or indicator)
#### FROM Clause
```sql
FROM Machines
```
The query is executed on the `Machines` table.
#### ORDER BY Clause
```sql
ORDER BY
Machines.PartNumber, Machines.MachineName;
```
The result set is ordered by:
* `PartNumber`: ascending order (smallest part number first)
* `MachineName`: ascending order (alphabetical order of machine names)
### Purpose and Use Cases
This query can be used in various scenarios, such as:
* Displaying a list of unique machines with their details
* Preparing data for further analysis or reporting
* Filtering out duplicate machines from a large dataset
