Hi,
I will explain EXISTS Operator in Oracle SQL in this post of Oracle SQL Tutorial series.
Read the previous post of this tutorial series before this.
The EXISTS Operator
The EXISTS operator is used to check if existence of any record in a subquery.
The result of this operator is TRUE or FALSE.
The NOT EXISTS Operator
The NOT EXISTS operator is just like EXISTS but it is REVERSE of EXISTS.
The result of this operator is TRUE or FALSE.
The EXISTS Syntax
EXISTS syntax is as follows.
SELECT column1, column2, column3 FROM table_name
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT column_name FROM table_name );
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table_name WHERE EXISTS (SELECT column_name FROM table_name WHERE condition);
The NOT EXISTS Syntax
EXISTS syntax is as follows.
SELECT column1, column2, column3 FROM table_name
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT column_name FROM table_name );
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table_name WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT column_name FROM table_name WHERE condition);
