SQL Joins - Odp

SQL JOINs are used to combine data from two or more tables based on a common field. The main types of joins are inner joins, left joins, right joins, and full joins. Inner joins return rows that match between both tables, left joins return all rows from the left table plus matched rows from the right table, right joins do the opposite, and full joins return all rows and fill in nulls for non-matched data.

SQL JOINS

SQL | Join (Inner, Left, Right and Full Joins)

A SQL Join statement is used to combine data or


rows from two or more tables based on a common
field between them. Different types of Joins are:

INNER JOIN
LEFT JOIN
RIGHT JOIN
FULL JOIN

Consider the two tables below:


The simplest Join is INNER JOIN.
● INNER JOIN: The INNER JOIN keyword
selects all rows from both the tables as long as
the condition satisfies. This keyword will create
the result-set by combining all rows from both
the tables where the condition satisfies i.e value
of the common field will be same.
Syntax:

SELECT table1.column1,table1.column2,table2.column1,....
FROM table1
INNER JOIN table2
ON table1.matching_column = table2.matching_column;

table1: First table.


table2: Second table
matching_column: Column common to both the tables.

Note: We can also write JOIN instead of INNER JOIN. JOIN


is same as INNER JOIN.
● Example Queries(INNER JOIN)
●

● This query will show the names and age of students enrolled
in different courses.
●

SELECT StudentCourse.COURSE_ID, Student.NAME, Student.AGE


FROM Student
INNER JOIN StudentCourse
ON Student.ROLL_NO = StudentCourse.ROLL_NO;
● LEFT JOIN:
● This join returns all the rows of the table on the
left side of the join and matching rows for the
table on the right side of join. The rows for
which there is no matching row on right side,
the result-set will contain null. LEFT JOIN is
also known as LEFT OUTER JOIN.:
SELECT
table1.column1,table1.column2,table2.column1,....
FROM table1
LEFT JOIN table2
ON table1.matching_column = table2.matching_column;
●

● table1: First table.


● table2: Second table
● matching_column: Column common to both the
tables.
● Note: We can also use LEFT OUTER JOIN
instead of LEFT JOIN, both are same.
● Example Queries(LEFT JOIN):
●

SELECT
Student.NAME,StudentCourse.COURSE_ID
FROM Student
LEFT JOIN StudentCourse
ON StudentCourse.ROLL_NO = Student.ROLL_NO;
●
● RIGHT JOIN:
● RIGHT JOIN is similar to LEFT JOIN. This join
returns all the rows of the table on the right side
of the join and matching rows for the table on
the left side of join. The rows for which there is
no matching row on left side, the result-set will
contain null. RIGHT JOIN is also known as
RIGHT OUTER JOIN
Syntax:

SELECT
table1.column1,table1.column2,table2.column1,....
FROM table1
RIGHT JOIN table2
ON table1.matching_column = table2.matching_column;

table1: First table.


table2: Second table
matching_column: Column common to both the tables.
Note: We can also use RIGHT OUTER JOIN
instead of RIGHT JOIN, both are same.
Example Queries(RIGHT JOIN):

SELECT
Student.NAME,StudentCourse.COURSE_ID
FROM Student
RIGHT JOIN StudentCourse
ON StudentCourse.ROLL_NO = Student.ROLL_NO;
● FULL JOIN: FULL JOIN creates the result-set
by combining result of both LEFT JOIN and
RIGHT JOIN. The result-set will contain all the
rows from both the tables. The rows for which
there is no matching, the result-set will contain
NULL values.
Syntax:

SELECT
table1.column1,table1.column2,table2.column1,....
FROM table1
FULL JOIN table2
ON table1.matching_column = table2.matching_column;

table1: First table.


table2: Second table
matching_column: Column common to both the tables.
Example Queries(FULL JOIN):

SELECT
Student.NAME,StudentCourse.COURSE_ID
FROM Student
FULL JOIN StudentCourse
ON StudentCourse.ROLL_NO = Student.ROLL_NO;
● RIGHT OUTER
JOIN
SELECT customers.customer_id,
orders.order_id, orders.order_date
FROM customers
RIGHT OUTER JOIN orders
ON customers.customer_id =
orders.customer_id
ORDER BY customers.customer_id;
● Inner Join Query
SELECT customers.customer_id,
orders.order_id, orders.order_date
FROM customers
INNER JOIN orders
ON customers.customer_id =
orders.customer_id
ORDER BY customers.customer_id;
● FULL OUTER
JOIN
SELECT customers.customer_id,
orders.order_id, orders.order_date
FROM customers
FULL OUTER JOIN orders
ON customers.customer_id =
orders.customer_id
ORDER BY customers.customer_id;
● LEFT OUTER
JOIN
SELECT customers.customer_id,
orders.order_id, orders.order_date
FROM customers
LEFT OUTER JOIN orders
ON customers.customer_id =
orders.customer_id
ORDER BY customers.customer_id;
