【问题描述】:
考虑下表:
mysql> select * from phone_numbers;
+-------------+------+-----------+
| number | type | person_id |
+-------------+------+-----------+
| 17182225465 | home | 1 |
| 19172225465 | cell | 1 |
| 12129876543 | home | 2 |
| 13049876543 | cell | 2 |
| 15064223454 | home | 3 |
| 15064223454 | cell | 3 |
| 18724356798 | home | 4 |
| 19174335465 | cell | 5 |
+-------------+------+-----------+
我正在努力寻找那些有家庭电话但没有手机的人。
此查询有效:
mysql> select h.*
-> from phone_numbers h
-> left join phone_numbers c
-> on h.person_id = c.person_id
-> and c.type = 'cell'
-> where h.type = 'home'
-> and c.number is null;
+-------------+------+-----------+
| number | type | person_id |
+-------------+------+-----------+
| 18724356798 | home | 4 |
+-------------+------+-----------+
但这个没有:
mysql> select h.*
-> from phone_numbers h
-> left join phone_numbers c
-> on h.person_id = c.person_id
-> and h.type = 'home'
-> and c.type = 'cell'
-> where c.number is null;
+-------------+------+-----------+
| number | type | person_id |
+-------------+------+-----------+
| 19172225465 | cell | 1 |
| 13049876543 | cell | 2 |
| 15064223454 | cell | 3 |
| 18724356798 | home | 4 |
| 19174335465 | cell | 5 |
+-------------+------+-----------+
两者之间的唯一区别是h.type = 'home' 条件的位置 - 第一个是在where 子句中,第二个是on 子句的一部分。
为什么第二个查询返回的结果与第一个不同?

第二种情况,你真的是在做左连接吗?

差点想把这个仅仅为了艺术和奉献来充分说明情况。
