CROSS JOIN

Returns all possible combinations of records.


Degree of cross joined table is the sum of degrees of individual table.
SELECT * FROM SENDER,RECEIVER;
Cardinality of cross joined table is the product of cardinalities of individual table.
SELECT * FROM SENDER JOIN RECEIVER;
EQUI JOIN
Combines records from multiple table based on common columns.

SELECT * FROM SENDER,RECEIVER WHERE


SENDER.S_ID = RECEIVER.S_ID;

SELECT * FROM SENDER JOIN RECEIVER ON


SENDER.S_ID = RECEIVER.S_ID;
NATURAL JOIN
Combines records from multiple table based on common
columns eliminating the duplicate columns in the output table.

SELECT S.S_ID,R.R_CITY FROM SENDER S,


RECEIVER R WHERE S.S_ID = R.S_ID;

SELECT S.S_ID,R.R_CITY FROM SENDER S


NATURAL JOIN RECEIVER R;
