Solution

The functions that are similar are RANK and DENSE_RANK.

Here's why:

a. DENSE_RANK and NTILE are not similar. DENSE_RANK provides the rank of a row in an ordered group of rows, but unlike RANK, it does not skip any ranks if there is a tie. NTILE, on the other hand, divides an ordered partition into a specified number of groups and assigns each row to a group.

b. RANK and NTILE are not similar. RANK provides the rank of a row in an ordered group of rows, with the same rank for rows with equal values. NTILE, as mentioned above, divides an ordered partition into a specified number of groups.

c. NTILE and ROW_NUMBER are not similar. While NTILE divides an ordered partition into a specified number of groups, ROW_NUMBER simply returns the sequential number of a row within a partition of a result set, starting at 1 for the first row in each partition.

d. RANK and DENSE_RANK are similar. Both provide the rank of a row in an ordered group of rows. The only difference is that DENSE_RANK does not skip any ranks if there is a tie, while RANK does.
