The ( ) keyword is used after the ORDER BY clause to order dates from the most recent to the furthest back in time.

When ordering dates you can explicitly state whether the order is in Ascending or Descending order with 2 keywords,
ASC
or DESC
So the answer you should give to the quiz is DESC.

SELECT username, points
FROM users
ORDER BY username (Keyword)
Hope that helps.
