The example below queries test scores for players in various grade levels. Unlike a regular MIN() aggregation, the window function highlights how each player individually compares to the lowest game score for their level.

SELECT
	nickname,
	level,
	current_score,
	MIN(current_score) OVER (PARTITION BY level) AS lowest_score
FROM
	players;

Returns:

nickname	level	current_score	lowest_score
