Chapter 06-Displaying Data From multiple Tables - 01
Objectives
After completing this lesson,you should be able to do the following:
- Write SELECT statements to access data from more than one table using equijoins and nonequijoins.
- Join a table to itself by using a self-join
- View data that generally does not meet a join condtions by using outer joins
- Generate a Cartesian product of all rows from two or more tables.
Lesson Agenda
Types of JOINS and its syntax
- Nature join:
- -USING clause
- -ON clause
- Self-join
- Nonequijoins
- OUTER join
- -LEFT OUTER join
- -RIGHT OUTER join
- -FULL OUTER join
- Cartesian product
- -Cross join
Obtaining Data from Multiple Tables
equijoin:两张表基于某个值相等,而连接起来.
Types of Joins
Joins that are complicant with the SQL:1999 standard include the following:
- Natural joins:
- -NATURAL JOIN clause
- -USING clause
- -ON clause
- Outer joins:
- -LEFT OUTER JOIN
- -RIGHT OUTER JOIN
- -FULL OUTER JOIN
- Cross joins
Joining Tables Using SQL:1999 Syntax
Use a join to query data from more than one table:

SELECT table1.column,table2.column FROM table1 [NATURAL JOIN table2] | [JOIN table2 USING (column_name)] | [JOIN table2 ON (table1.column_name = table2.column_name)] | [LEFT|RIGHT|OUTER JOIN table2 ON (table1.column_name = table2.column_name)] | [CROSS JOIN table2];
Joining Tables Using Oracle Syntax
- Use a join to query data from more than one table:
SELECT table1.column_name,table2.column_name FROM table1,table2 WHERE table1.column1 = table2.column2
- Write the join condition in the WHERE clause
- Prefix the column name with the table name when the same column name appears in more than one table.

Qualifying Ambiguous Column Names
- Use table prefixes to qualify column names that are in multiple tables.
- Use table prefixes to improve performance
- Instead of full table name prefixes,use table aliases.
- Table alias gives a table a short name:
- -Keeps SQL code smaller,uses less memory
- Use column aliases to distinguish columns that have identical names,but reside in different tables.
