Questions and Answers

What is the primary purpose of using a LEFT JOIN in SQL?

To retrieve all records from the right table

To combine records from two tables without any conditions

To retrieve only the unmatched records from the left table

To retrieve all records from the left table and matched records from the right table (correct)

Which of the following SQL statements correctly uses the LEFT JOIN syntax?

SELECT * FROM Table1 LEFT JOIN Table2 ON Table1.id = Table2.id

SELECT A, B FROM Table1, Table2 LEFT JOIN ON Table1.Common_Column = Table2.Common_Column

SELECT Table1.Column(s), Table2.Column(s) FROM Table1 LEFT JOIN Table2 ON Table1.Common_Column = Table2.Common_Column (correct)

SELECT Table1.Column(s), Table2.Column(s) LEFT OUTER JOIN Table1 ON Table2.Common_Column = Table1.Common_Column

When utilizing a LEFT JOIN, which of the following conditions is NOT true?

NULL values may appear in the result set for unmatched records in the right table

The LEFT JOIN can substitute for an INNER JOIN without altering results (correct)

All records from the left table are included in the result set

Records from the right table are included only if there is a match

Study Notes

Week 13 - Handout 1

Declarative knowledge includes Union Clause, Group by Clause, and Having Clause
Functional knowledge involves explaining and creating databases using syntax for Union, Group by and Having Clauses
Intended learning outcomes involve applying and using MySQL syntax for Union, Group by and Having Clauses.
Introduction discusses the Limit Clause, Order By, Like Operator, and filter results
Group By Clause aggregates or combines data rows with the same values
Syntax for Group By Clause: SELECT column1, column2,... FROM tableName WHERE condition GROUP BY columnName;
Group by clause is used with aggregate functions (e.g., COUNT, SUM) to efficiently analyze data
Having Clause filters aggregated data in a group-by query
Syntax for Having Clause: SELECT column1, column2, ... FROM tableName WHERE condition GROUP BY columnName HAVING condition;
The Clause can be used with aggregate functions (e.g., COUNT, SUM)
MySQL Union Operator combines the results of multiple SELECT statements, eliminating duplicates
The result should satisfy all conditions (same column number, data types, and order)

Week 14 - Handout 1

Declarative knowledge includes Database Normalization (1NF, 2NF, and 3NF)
Functional knowledge involves explaining and differentiating 3 basic database normalizations
Intended learning outcomes involve creating tables displaying different database normalizations
Introduction discusses data normalization; techniques to eliminate redundancy and improve data structure
First Normal Form (1NF) establishes rules for database normalization in relational database systems
Rules include: unique columns, single values per cell, and non-divisible attributes
Common problems include rows that are not uniquely identified and cells that have lists of values
Example problems illustrate how to correct instances of non-compliance with 1NF

Week 15 - Handout 1

Declarative Knowledge includes MySQL Joins (Left, Right, and Inner Joins)
Functional Knowledge involves explaining MySQL Joins and creating databases using MySQL join syntax
Intended Learning Outcomes (ILO) involve applying and using MySQL join syntax
Introduction uses SQL joins to merge data from multiple tables; normalization cannot exist without joins
Consider multiple tables and select corresponding rows through matching columns
SQL Join Example illustrates selecting rows using matching columns

Week 16 - Handout 1

Declarative knowledge includes ER diagrams, and the use of Chen notation
Functional knowledge involves explaining the concepts and using Chen notation in ERDs
Intended learning outcomes involve creating an ER diagram using Chen Notation
Introduction describes Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERD) to diagram entities and their relationships
ER diagrams use symbols (rectangles, ovals, diamonds) for entities, attributes, and relationships
Introduction discusses how data normalization requires joining tables with SQL
Entity describes a person, place, object, event, or concept in the database
Example entities include Employee, Store, Machine
Attribute describes a property of an entity
Example attributes include Name, Address, Type
Relationships describe how entities are associated with one another (e.g., "has", "works in", "bought")
