检索每一个组中的最后一条记录-MySQL - Retrieving the last record in each group - MySQL

问题：

There is a table messages that contains data as shown below: 有一个表messages ，其中包含数据，以下所示：

Id   Name   Other_Columns
-------------------------
1    A       A_data_1
2    A       A_data_2
3    A       A_data_3
4    B       B_data_1
5    B       B_data_2
6    C       C_data_1

If I run a query select * from messages group by name , I will get the result as: 若是运行查询，请select * from messages group by name ，结果将是：

1    A       A_data_1
4    B       B_data_1
6    C       C_data_1

What query will return the following result? 什么查询将返回如下结果？

3    A       A_data_3
5    B       B_data_2
6    C       C_data_1

That is, the last record in each group should be returned. 即，应返回每一个组中的最后一条记录。

At present, this is the query that I use: 目前，这是我使用的查询：

SELECT
  *
FROM (SELECT
  *
FROM messages
ORDER BY id DESC) AS x
GROUP BY name

But this looks highly inefficient. 但这看起来效率很低。 Any other ways to achieve the same result? 还有其余方法能够达到相同的结果吗？
