What is the exact difference b/w IN and EXIST in Oracle..?..

Answer / moorthy g

select ename from emp e
where mgr in (select empno from emp whereename = 'KING');

Here's the EXPLAIN PLAN for this query:

OBJECT OPERATION
---------- ----------------------------------------
SELECTSTATEMENT()
NESTEDLOOPS()
EMP TABLEACCESS(FULL)
EMP TABLEACCESS(BY INDEX ROWID)
PK_EMP INDEX(UNIQUESCAN)

This query is virtually equivalent to this:

select e1.ename from emp e1,(select empno from empwhere
ename = 'KING') e2
where e1.mgr = e2.empno;

You can write the same query using EXISTS bymoving the outer
query column to a subquery condition, likethis:

select ename from emp e
where exists (select 0 from emp wheree.mgr = empno and
ename = 'KING');

When you write EXISTS in a where clause, you'retelling the
optimizer that you want the outer query to be runfirst,
using each value to fetch a value from the inner
query(think: EXISTS = outside to inside).

row.-- exist will me faster when you are working with big
tables.
