This approach uses the SQL query constructs to fetch the nth highest salary directly from the database. We will utilize ORDER BY, DISTINCT, LIMIT, and OFFSET to achieve this.
Steps:
SELECT DISTINCT.ORDER BY salary DESC.LIMIT and OFFSET to skip the first n-1 results and take the nth result if it exists.1/* Placeholder function for SQL query in C# */

In this approach, we will use the DENSE_RANK() window function available in SQL to assign ranks to salaries based on their value.
Steps:
DENSE_RANK by partitioning properly.n.
This JavaScript function generates a SQL query string using the DENSE_RANK function. It must be executed using Node.js libraries or other environments that support SQL execution.
