Is full outer join same as cross join?



Is full outer join same as cross join?..

Answer / Shubham Srivastav

No, a full outer join is not the same as a cross join. A cross join, or cartesian product, returns all possible combinations of rows from two tables without any conditions. In contrast, a full outer join returns all records when there's a match in either left or right table, filling missing values with NULL. Full outer joins can be achieved using the `FULL OUTER JOIN` clause in SQL.
