CREATE TABLE candytest
(kidId char(2),
candycolor varchar(10)
)
GO

INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K1', 'Yellow'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K1', 'Red'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K2', 'Red'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K2', 'Blue'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K3', 'White'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K3', 'Red'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K3', 'Yellow'
Go
--Now to find those kidid's which has both yellow and red
colored candies, we can write query as:

SELECT c1.kidid
FROM candytest AS c1 JOIN candytest AS c2
ON c1.candycolor = 'Red' AND c2.candycolor = 'Yellow'
AND c1.kidid = c2.kidid

Answer / madhavi

Joining the table to itself is self join.
Example:

To find the manager name for each employee in the employee
table:
select e1.empno employee_id,e1.ename employee_name,e2.ename
manager_name,e2.empno employee_num from emp e1,emp e2 where
e1.empno=e2.mgr;

INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K2', 'Blue'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K3', 'White'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K3', 'Red'
INSERT INTO candytest SELECT 'K3', 'Yellow'

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `emp` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(50) collate latin1_general_ci NOT NULL,
`dept_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`mgr_id` int(11) NOT NULL,

SELECT e2.name Employee_name, e1.name Manager_name
FROM emp e1, emp e2
WHERE e2.mgr_id = e1.id

Answer / anuj barthwal

A self join applies on one table only

Example:

emp_id emp_name emp_manager_id

1 Anuj NULL

2 Sunny 1

3 Suraj 1

4 Narban 2


if we want to get the name of the managers

select e1.emp_name 'manager',e2.emp_name 'employee'
from employees e1 join employees e2
on e1.emp_id=e2.emp_manager_id

manager employee

Anuj Sunny

Anuj Suraj

Sunny Narban
