Answer
JOIN combines rows from multiple tables based on related columns such as INNER JOIN, LEFT JOIN, RIGHT JOIN, and CROSS JOIN.
Quick Answer
JOIN combines rows from two or more tables based on a related column. INNER JOIN: rows with matching values in both tables. LEFT JOIN: all rows from left table, matched rows from right (NULLs where no match). RIGHT JOIN: reverse. FULL OUTER JOIN: not native in MySQL (use UNION of LEFT + RIGHT JOINs). CROSS JOIN: Cartesian product (every combination of rows).
