Difference between join and a subquery?..

Answer / kiran

subquery can be used for simple logical queries , to get
required output/condition

but if you want to compare two or more tables and get output
in the way you want it would be lot difficult to manage all
those with subqueries - so we can use the concept of joins

Answer / neo devan

A query inside a query or next level query is called
subquery, a subquery can return 1 or more values to the
main query.
Ex: select * from emptable where deptno=(select deptno from
saltable where rownum=1);

A Join is used to query two tables, or views.
Ex: select * from emptable inner join saltable on
emptable.deptno=saltable.deptno;
