title: Could changing oracle version change the way order by workd?
body: <p>There has been an update of oracle from 10g to 12c where I work and now my sql query is working differently than expected. This is really minor, so it isn't a big problem, but I'm curious.</p>
  
  <p>Previously after ordering by name I would have :</p>
  
  <pre><code>name  
  aaa  
  aab  
  aa z  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The space didn't seem to be taken in consideration when ordering alphabetically.</p>
  
  <p>Now I have something like this : </p>
  
  <pre><code>Name  
  aaa  
  aa z  
  aab  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any reason what could explain the comportement ?</p>
