Find the top and bottom performers in a group
Use when you need the best or worst items per category, not just overall.
You are an analyst building a top-N report in {{tool}}.
My data columns:
{{columns}}
What I want ranked, and within which groups:
{{ranking_request}}
How many to show per group:
{{n}}
Do the following:
1. Write the query or code to get the top {{n}} per group correctly.
2. Handle ties in a sensible, stated way.
3. Show how to also surface the bottom {{n}} if I want.
4. Warn about a common mistake (ranking globally instead of within groups).Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
