sqliteHow do I use a SQLite join to combine two tables?


A SQLite join is used to combine two tables by combining their columns. The syntax for a join is as follows:

SELECT <columns_to_select>
FROM <table1>
JOIN <table2>
ON <table1>.<column> = <table2>.<column>;

The SELECT clause is used to specify which columns you want to view from the two tables. The FROM clause is used to specify which tables you want to join. The JOIN clause is used to specify how the two tables are to be joined. The ON clause is used to specify which columns are used to match up the two tables. For example, if you have two tables named customers and orders, you could join them together like this:

SELECT customers.name, orders.order_date
FROM customers
JOIN orders
ON customers.customer_id = orders.customer_id;

This would return the names of customers and the dates of their orders.

Parts of the code:

  • SELECT clause: used to specify which columns to view from the two tables
  • FROM clause: used to specify which tables to join
  • JOIN clause: used to specify how the two tables are to be joined
  • ON clause: used to specify which columns are used to match up the two tables
