Additional Database for chapter 9
Do we really need to create two additional Publisher tables (i.e., Publisher2 and Publisher3) ?
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 7
Purpose of Joins
• Joins are used to link tables and reconstruct data in a relational database
• Joins can be created through:– Conditions in a WHERE clause– Use of JOIN keywords in FROM clause
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 8
How many records will be in the Cartesian Join?
Figure 9-1 Results of a Cartesian Product
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 9
Cartesian Joins
• Created by omitting joining condition in the WHERE clause or through CROSS JOIN keywords in the FROM clause
• Results in every possible row combination (m * n)
• They are useful when– performing certain statistical procedures for
data analysis
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 10
Cartesian Join Example:Omitted Condition
Figure 9-3 Producing an unintentional Cartesian join
Q: Why unintentional Cartesian join is produced?
A: Because Oracle didn’t know what data the two tables had in common.
Q: How to solve the problem?
A: Use of Equality Joins (or inner/simple/natural).
-- chapter 9, Figure 9-3; p.288SELECT title, nameFROM books, publisher;
(70 rows produced)
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 11
Cartesian Join Example:CROSS (Cartesian) JOIN Keywords
Figure 9-4 Using the CROSS JOIN keywords
-- chapter 9, Figure 9-2; p.287SELECT isbn, title, location, ' ' CountFROM books, warehousesORDER BY location, title;
-- chapter 9, Figure 9-4; p.289SELECT isbn, title, location, ' ' CountFROM books CROSS JOIN warehousesORDER BY location, title;
(42 rows produced)
-- chapter 9, Figure 9-2b; p.287SELECT count (location)FROM books, warehousesORDER BY location, title;
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 12
Equality Joins
• Link rows through equivalent data that exists in both tables
• Created by:– Creating equivalency condition in the WHERE
clause– Using NATURAL JOIN, JOIN…USING, or
JOIN…ON keywords in the FROM clause
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 13
Joining Multiple Tables
• Join: combine data from multiple database tables using foreign key references
• SELECT field1, field2, ... FROM table1, table2 WHERE table1.joinfield = table2.joinfield AND search_condition(s);• If tables share field names, must prefix field in select
with table name (table1.field1, table2.field1)• Join condition: part of where clause indicating how
tables are related (table1.foreign_key = table2.primary key)
• Search conditions can be added to join condition using AND operator
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 14
Inner Join (cont.)
-- Exatra exampleSELECT s_id, s_last, s_first, student.f_id, f_lastFROM student, facultyWHERE student.f_id = faculty.f_id;
S_ID S_LAST S_FIRST F_ID F_LAST------ -------- -------- ---- --------1 Jones Tammy 1 Cox2 Perez Jorge 1 Cox3 Marsh John 1 Cox4 Smith Mike 2 Blanchard5 Johnson Lisa 4 Sheng6 Nguyen Ni 3 Williams6 rows selected.
Q: why “Brown” is not on the result?
Q: How many rows will be produced if “C-Join” is used?
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 15
Natural Join – Inner Join
• It can be used when the tables have a single commonly named and defined column.
-- Extra ExampleSELECT s_id, s_last, s_first, student.f_id, f_lastFROM student, facultyWHERE student.f_id = faculty.f_id;
-- Use NATURAL JOINSELECT s_id, s_last, s_first, f_id, f_lastFROM student NATURAL JOIN faculty;
S_ID S_LAST S_FIRST F_ID F_LAST------ -------- -------- ---- --------1 Jones Tammy 1 Cox2 Perez Jorge 1 Cox3 Marsh John 1 Cox4 Smith Mike 2 Blanchard5 Johnson Lisa 4 Sheng6 Nguyen Ni 3 Williams6 rows selected.
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 16
Equality Joins (Traditional Method): WHERE Clause Example
Figure 9-6 An equality join
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 17
Qualifying Column Names• Columns in
both tables must be qualified
Figure 9-7 A “column ambiguously defined” error
• Which table is “pubid” from?
• Is it from publisher or books?-- chapter 9, Figure 9-7(b); p.292
SELECT title, books.pubid, nameFROM books, publisherWHERE books.pubid = publisher.pubid;
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 18
WHERE Clause Supports Join and Other Conditions
Figure 9-8 Including search and join conditions in a WHERE clause
-- Use aliases -- chapter 9, Figure 9-9; p.294SELECT b.title, b.pubid, p.nameFROM books b, publisher pWHERE b.pubid = p.pubidAND (b.cost < 15 OR p.pubid = 1)ORDER BY title;
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 19
Using a Query Design Diagram
• Helpful for creating complicated queries• Can use a formula to derive actual query from diagram
Customers• customer#
(j)• lastname (d)• firstname (d)
Orders• order# (j)• customer#
(j)
Orderitems• order# (j)• isbn (j)
Query: Display customers’ lastname, firstname and books’ title they purchased
Books• isbn (j)• title (d)
j: join
s: search
d: display
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 20
Query: Display customers’ lastname, firstname and books’ title they purchased
j: join
s: search
d: display
Customers• customer#
(j)• lastname (d)• firstname (d)
Orders• order# (j)• customer#
(j)
Orderitems• order# (j)• isbn (j)
Books• isbn (j)• title (d)
You can derive your query from the diagram by following these steps:
1. Place the display fields in the SELECT clause
2. List all of the tables in the FROM clause
3. Include the links in join conditions in the WHERE clause
4. Include all of the search fields in the WHERE clause (if needed)
Figure: Join query design diagram
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 21
Query: Display customers’ lastname, firstname and books’ title they purchased
j: join
s: search
d: display
Customers• customer#
(j)• lastname (d)• firstname (d)
Orders• order# (j)• customer#
(j)
Orderitems• order# (j)• isbn (j)
Books• isbn (j)• title (d)
Figure: Join query design diagram
-- chapter 9, Figure 9-10; p.295SELECT c.lastname, c.firstname, b.titleFROM customers c, orders o, orderitems oi, books bWHERE c.customer# = o.customer#AND o.order# = oi.order#AND oi.isbn = b.isbnORDER BY lastname, firstname;
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 22
Joining More Than Two Tables
Figure 9-10 Joining four tables
• Joining four tables requires three join conditions
• Joining N tables requires ___ join conditions
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 23
Query: Display customers’ lastname, firstname and books’ title and only in ‘COMPUTER’ category
j: join
s: search
d: display
Customers• customer# (j)• lastname (d)• firstname (d)
Orders• order# (j)• customer# (j)
Orderitems• order# (j)• isbn (j)
Books• isbn (j)• title (d)• _______

Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 24
Equality Joins: NATURAL JOIN
Figure 9-12 Using the NATURAL JOIN keywords
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 25
No Qualifiers with a NATURAL JOIN
Figure 9-13 Column qualifier error with a NATURAL JOIN
Natural Join keyword (e.g, pubid), we are not required to be specified when the two tables have it in common.
Therefore most developers avoid using a NATURAL JOIN because it can cause unexpected results.
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 26
Equality Joins: JOIN…USING

Query: list all author IDs with books in the ‘Children’ category
Query: list all author IDs with books in the ‘Family Life’ category
SELECT ba.authorid FROM books b JOIN bookauthor ba USING (isbn) WHERE category = 'FAMILY LIFE‘;
SELECT ba.authorid FROM books b JOIN bookauthor ba USING (isbn) WHERE category = 'CHILDREN';
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 29
Query: list all author IDs with books in the ‘Family Life’ or ‘Children’ category
-- chapter 9, Figure 9-28; p. 313(version 1)SELECT ba.authorid FROM books b JOIN bookauthor ba USING (isbn) WHERE category = ‘FAMILY LIFE’
Anything not appropriate in the output?
OR category = ‘CHILDREN’;
How to take care this type of problem in an easy way?
-- chapter 9, Figure 9-28; p. 313(version 2)SELECT _______ (ba.authorid) FROM books b JOIN bookauthor ba USING (isbn) WHERE category = 'FAMILY LIFE' OR category = 'CHILDREN';
What else we can achieve the same goal (and other more complicated situation) ?
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 30
Using Set Operators to Combine Query Results
• Performs set operations on outputs of two unrelated queries
• They all require that both queries– have the same number of display fields in the
SELECT statement, and that– each field in the first query has the same data
type as the corresponding column in the second query.
• <query 1> <SET Operator> <query 2>

Oracle 11g/SQL Set Operator (Table 9-2)
• UNION (see Figure 9-28)– returns all rows from both queries, but ONLY displays
duplicate rows once• UNION ALL (see Figure 9-30)
– returns all (duplicate) rows from both queries, and displays ALL duplicate rows
• INTERSECT (see Figure 9-34)– returns all matching rows that are returned by both queries
• MINUS (see Figure 9-35)– returns all rows returned by the first query minus the
matching rows returned by the second query
i Use to select data from multiple tables not connected with foreign key relationships
i Used to combine the results of two or more SELECT statements

Summary• Data stored in multiple tables regarding a single
entity can be linked together through the use of joins
• A Cartesian join between two tables returns every possible combination of rows from the tables; the resulting number of rows is always m * n
• An equality join is created when the data joining the records from two different tables are an exact match
• A non-equality join establishes a relationship based upon anything other than an equal condition
• Self-joins are used when a table must be joined to itself to retrieve needed data
Dr. Chen, Oracle Database System (Oracle) 50
Summary (continued)
• Inner joins are categorized as being equality, non-equality, or self-joins
• An outer join is created when records need to be included in the results without having corresponding records in the join tables– The record is matched with a NULL record so it will be
included in the output• Set operators such as UNION, UNION ALL,
INTERSECT, and MINUS can be used to combine the results of multiple queries
