Joins in SQL

Database System
JOINS

 Joins are fundamental operations in relational databases used to combine rows from two or more tables
based on a related column between them.
Types of Joins

 Inner Join
 Left Join (or Left Outer Join)
 Right Join (or Right Outer Join)
 Full Join (or Full Outer Join)
Inner Join

 Inner Join returns rows when there is a match in both tables being joined.
 The resulting table contains only those rows where the join condition is satisfied.
 SELECT columns
FROM table1
INNER JOIN table2
ON table1.column = table2.column;
Example of Inner Join

Employee Table
EmpID Name DeptID
1 Alice 101
2 Bob 102
3 Charlie 101

Department Table
DeptID DeptName
101 IT
102 HR
103 Finance
SELECT Employees.Name, Departments.DeptName
FROM Employees
INNER JOIN Departments ON Employees.DeptID = Departments.DeptID;

Name DeptName
Alice IT
Bob HR
Charlie IT
Left Join

 Left Join returns all rows from the left table and the matched rows from the right table.
 If no match is found, NULL values are returned for the columns of the right table.
SELECT columns
FROM table1
LEFT JOIN table2
ON table1.column = table2.column;
Example of Left Join

SELECT Employees.Name, Departments.DeptName


FROM Employees
LEFT JOIN Departments
ON Employees.DeptID = Departments.DeptID;

Name DeptName
Alice IT
Bob HR
Charlie IT
NULL Finance
