In the case of where clause it displays single row,or operator can be placed in where clause in oreder to extend rows.
In IN operator at a time we can place empid multiple times but they must be unique.
ex:
(
select * from emp
where empid=123
);
By using OR operator:
(
select * from emp
where empid=123 or empid=234
);
By using IN operator:
(
select * from emp
where empid IN(123)
);
accordidg to the question the output will be same in both thae cases..
