Can you tell about the different types of table joins in SQL?

In SQL, there are several main types of table joins (JOIN) that allow combining data from different tables:

• INNER JOIN — returns only the records that match the condition in both tables.
• LEFT JOIN (LEFT OUTER JOIN) — returns all records from the left table and the matching ones from the right; if there are no matches, NULLs will appear on the right side.
• RIGHT JOIN (RIGHT OUTER JOIN) — the opposite, returns all from the right table and the matching ones from the left.
• FULL JOIN (FULL OUTER JOIN) — returns all records from both tables, with NULLs in places where there are no matches.

Example of INNER JOIN:

SELECT employees.name, departments.name
FROM employees
INNER JOIN departments ON employees.department_id = departments.id;
