Diff between Top 1 1 and Select 1 in SQL Select Query

SELECT TOP 1 Means Selecting the very 1st record in the result set

SELECT 1 Means return 1 as the result set

SELECT TOP 1 1 FROM [SomeTable] WHERE <SomeCondition> Means if the condition is true and any rows are returned from the select, only return top 1 row and only return integer 1 for the row (no data just the integer 1 is returned).
