T SQL Join Types

This document describes different types of SQL joins that can be used to combine data from multiple tables. It defines inner, left outer, right outer, full outer, semi, anti-semi, and cross joins. Examples are provided for each join type using the Table1 and Table2 tables to illustrate how the rows from each table are combined or filtered based on the type of join specified. The document also shows how multiple join types can be chained together to combine data from more than two tables.
