A join operation is a Cartesian product which requires that tuples in the List the names of instructors along with the course ID of the courses that
they taught
two relations match (under some condition). It also specifies the
attributes that are present in the result of the join • select name, course_id

courses that they have taken Query example
• Correct version select name, title
select name, title from (student natural join takes) join course using (course_id)
from student natural join takes, course
where takes.course_id = course.course_id;
• Incorrect version
select name, title
from student natural join takes natural join course;
This query omits all (student name, course title) pairs where the
student takes a course in a department other than the student's
own department.
The correct version (above), correctly outputs such pairs.
