    Cross Join

    Uploaded by

    Cross join produces the Cartesian product of the tables involved in the join, returning all possible combinations of rows from the tables. It does not use a join condition, unlike other types of joins. The document provides the syntax for a cross join using the CROSS JOIN keyword or a comma between the table names. It also creates two sample tables, EMP and DEPT, and provides examples of cross join queries on those tables with and without a WHERE clause and using ORDER BY.

    Definition

    Cross Join produces Cartesian product of the tables


    which are participating in the Join queries
    that�s why it�s also known by the name of Cartesian Join.

    Generally we use CROSS JOIN


    when there is no relationship between
    participating tables.

    Syntax

    SELECT column names FROM table1 CROSS JOIN table 2 ;

    Or
    SELECT column names FROM table1, table 2 ;

    Also with cross join we do not have any ON or USING join condition.

    Table 1: EMP this is a very simple table


    which consists of 3 columns
    emp id, emp name and emp salary
    where column emp id is the primary key.

    The query to create this table is

    CREATE TABLE emp


    (
    emp_id NUMBER(2) CONSTRAINT emp_col1_pk PRIMARY KEY,
    emp_name VARCHAR2(20),
    emp_salary NUMBER(5)
    );

    Table 2: The second table is DEPT this table also consists of 3 columns
    dept id, dept name and emp id.
    Column dept id is the primary key here and column emp id is
    the foreign key reference from the emp table.

    The query to create this table is

    CREATE TABLE dept


    (dept_id NUMBER(2) CONSTRAINT emp_col1_pk
    PRIMARY KEY,dept_name VARCHAR2(20),emp_id CONSTRAINT
    dept_col3_fk REFERENCES emp9(emp_id)
    );

    Query 1: CROSS JOIN

    SELECT emp_name, dept_name FROM emp CROSS JOIN dept;


    Since this cross join produces a Cartesian product therefore
    the total number of rows in the result will be equal to total number
    of rows in table 1 multiplied by total number of rows in table 2.
    Query 2: CROSS JOIN with WHERE clause.

    SELECT emp_name,dept_name FROM emp


    CROSS JOIN dept WHERE dept_name = 'IT';
    Query 3 : Cross Join with Order By clause

    SELECT emp_name,dept_name FROM emp CROSS JOIN


    dept WHERE dept_name = 'IT' ORDER BY emp_name;

    SELECT emp_name,dept_name FROM emp CROSS JOIN dept


    WHERE dept_name = 'IT' ORDER BY emp_name DESC;
