Primary Key and Foreign Key

The document describes creating and populating tables for students and teachers in a MySQL database. It defines primary and foreign keys to link the tables, then performs various SELECT queries on the tables using inner joins to retrieve related data between them. Examples demonstrate creating the tables, inserting sample data, and performing joins to view combined results from both tables based on the primary and foreign key relationships.

JOINS
• A join is a query that combines rows from two
or more tables.
• In a join query more than one table is listed in
from clause.
• Eg:- SELECT * FROM STUDENT, TEACHER;
• This query will give us Cartesian product i.e all
possible combinations formed of all rows of
both the tables.
• Join is used to retrieve data from more than
one table.
Cartesian Product/Cross Join
• It returns N1 X N2 rows where N1 is number
of rows of table1 and N2 is number of rows in
table2.

• It returns C1+ C2 columns where C1 is


number of columns of table1 and C2 is
number of columns in table2
