It's lists all odd numbered records first then all the even numbered ones.

1. Dates on or before the date parameter come first;
2. Dates on or before the parameter are sorted in descending order, so the latest comes first;
3. Dates after the parameter are sorted in ascending order, so the earliest comes first;

bool b1= true;
bool b2= false;
bool res= b1 == b2;
