这道题是之前那道Department Highest Salary的拓展，难度标记为Hard，还是蛮有难度的一道题，综合了前面很多题的知识点，首先看使用Select Count(Distinct)的方法，我们内交Employee和Department两张表，然后我们找出比当前薪水高的最多只能有两个，那么前三高的都能被取出来了，参见代码如下：

解法一：

SELECT d.Name AS Department, e.Name AS Employee, e.Salary FROM Employee e
JOIN Department d on e.DepartmentId = d.Id
WHERE (SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT Salary) FROM Employee WHERE Salary > e.Salary
AND DepartmentId = d.Id) < 3 ORDER BY d.Name, e.Salary DESC;
