SQL - CARTESIAN or CROSS JOINS


Advertisements

 Previous Page Next Page 

The CARTESIAN JOIN or CROSS JOIN returns the Cartesian product of the sets of records from two or more
joined tables. Thus, it equates to an inner join where the join-condition always evaluates to either True or
where the join-condition is absent from the statement.

Syntax
The basic syntax of the CARTESIAN JOIN or the CROSS JOIN is as follows −

SELECT table1.column1, table2.column2...


FROM table1, table2 [, table3 ]

Example
Consider the following two tables.

Table 1 − CUSTOMERS table is as follows.

+----+----------+-----+-----------+----------+
| ID | NAME | AGE | ADDRESS | SALARY |
+----+----------+-----+-----------+----------+
| 1 | Ramesh | 32 | Ahmedabad | 2000.00 |
| 2 | Khilan | 25 | Delhi | 1500.00 |
| 3 | kaushik | 23 | Kota | 2000.00 |
| 4 | Chaitali | 25 | Mumbai | 6500.00 |
| 5 | Hardik | 27 | Bhopal | 8500.00 |
| 6 | Komal | 22 | MP | 4500.00 |
| 7 | Muffy | 24 | Indore | 10000.00 |
+----+----------+-----+-----------+----------+

Table 2: ORDERS Table is as follows −

+-----+---------------------+-------------+--------+
|OID | DATE | CUSTOMER_ID | AMOUNT |
+-----+---------------------+-------------+--------+
| 102 | 2009-10-08 00:00:00 | 3 | 3000 |
| 100 | 2009-10-08 00:00:00 | 3 | 1500 |
| 101 | 2009-11-20 00:00:00 | 2 | 1560 |
| 103 | 2008-05-20 00:00:00 | 4 | 2060 |
+-----+---------------------+-------------+--------+

Now, let us join these two tables using CARTESIAN JOIN as follows −

SQL> SELECT ID, NAME, AMOUNT, DATE


FROM CUSTOMERS, ORDERS;

This would produce the following result −

+----+----------+--------+---------------------+
| ID | NAME | AMOUNT | DATE |
