SQL uses set operators to combine tables horizontally
SQL uses joins to combine tables vertically
Full joins include all rows from both tables, even if there are no matching rows in either table
To familiarize yourself with the columns in a table, which statement should be used:
DESCRIBE
PROPERTY
CONTENT
FEATURES

SQL subqueries can return calues to be used in an outer query's FROM clause
Which keyword is used to check the SELECT statement syntax?
NOERROR
CHECK
DETERMINE
A type of joins that returns only the matching rows
INNER JOIN
OUTER JOIN
LEFT JOIN
RIGHT JOIN
A subquery can return several rows of data but must only return values from a single column
Given the following SELECT statement, describe the incorrect syntax********************************************************SELECT a,b,c FROM tblx ORDER BY b WHERE tblx.a > 10;
arrangement of clauses
missing comma
missing semi-colon
none of the above
It is created by placing a query expression in a FROM clause where a table name would normally be used
IN LINE VIEW
subquery
virtual table
nested query
Correlated subqueries can be evaluated independently
If a summary function specifies only one column name, the statistic is calculated down the columb (across rows)
In a correlated subquery, the inner query provides information so that the subquery resolves successfully

NOT EXIST
NOT IN
IN
EXIST
When a SELECT list contains both a column created by a summary function and a column that is not summarized, by default, the summarized data is appended to each row of the original data table (remerged) in order to produce the output.
The COALESCE function returns the value of the first missing argument
If the summary function specifies more than one column, the statistic is calculated for the row (using values from the listed columns)
The COUNT function returns the number of columns returned by a query
If you specify the ANY keyword before a subquery, the comparison is true if it is false for any of the values that the subquery returns
Views often save space, because a view is usually quite small compared with the data that it accesses

CREATE TABLE
CREATE QUERY
CREATE VIEW
CREATE POPULATE
The EQUAL operator does not accept any expression that resolves to more than a single value
