在对数据库的查询时，我们遇到的大多数场景是在多张表中进行数据的查询，而不是单单使用一张表，这也是我们业务中90%以上的场景，本节将介绍数据库的多表查询技巧。
在进入正题之前，我们要先构建一个测试数据库，创建脚本如下：
DROP database IF EXISTS `scott`;
CREATE database IF NOT EXISTS `scott` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
USE `scott`;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `dept`;
CREATE TABLE `dept` (
`deptno` int(2) unsigned zerofill NOT NULL COMMENT '部门编号',
`dname` varchar(14) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '部门名称',
`loc` varchar(13) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '部门所在地点'
);
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `emp`;
CREATE TABLE `emp` (
`empno` int(6) unsigned zerofill NOT NULL COMMENT '雇员编号',
`ename` varchar(10) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '雇员姓名',
`job` varchar(9) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '雇员职位',
`mgr` int(4) unsigned zerofill DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '雇员领导编号',
`hiredate` datetime DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '雇佣时间',
`sal` decimal(7,2) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '工资月薪',
`comm` decimal(7,2) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '奖金',
`deptno` int(2) unsigned zerofill DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '部门编号'
);
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `salgrade`;
CREATE TABLE `salgrade` (
`grade` int(11) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '等级',
`losal` int(11) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '此等级最低工资',
`hisal` int(11) DEFAULT NULL COMMENT '此等级最高工资'
);
insert into dept (deptno, dname, loc)

insert into dept (deptno, dname, loc)

scott是数据库是一个简单的公司管理系统，有三张表EMP,DEPT,SALGRADE。接下来将使用其进行查询演示。
scott数据库脚本点击我的GitHub进行下载。
基于scott的单表查询
在多表查询之前，我们先进行单表查询操作的演示，顺便熟悉一下scott数据库，对数据库表的查询不是很清楚的同学可以参考：
- 例1：查询工资高于500或岗位为MANAGER的雇员，同时还要满足他们的姓名首字母为大写的J
mysql> select * from emp where (sal>500 or job='MANAGER') and ename like 'J%';
+--------+-------+---------+------+---------------------+---------+------+--------+
| empno | ename | job | mgr | hiredate | sal | comm | deptno |
+--------+-------+---------+------+---------------------+---------+------+--------+
| 007566 | JONES | MANAGER | 7839 | 1981-04-02 00:00:00 | 2975.00 | NULL | 20 |
| 007900 | JAMES | CLERK | 7698 | 1981-12-03 00:00:00 | 950.00 | NULL | 30 |
+--------+-------+---------+------+---------------------+---------+------+--------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)- 例2：按照部门号升序而雇员的工资降序排序
mysql> select * from emp order by deptno, sal desc;
+--------+--------+-----------+------+---------------------+---------+---------+--------+
| empno | ename | job | mgr | hiredate | sal | comm | deptno |
+--------+--------+-----------+------+---------------------+---------+---------+--------+
| 007839 | KING | PRESIDENT | NULL | 1981-11-17 00:00:00 | 5000.00 | NULL | 10 |
| 007782 | CLARK | MANAGER | 7839 | 1981-06-09 00:00:00 | 2450.00 | NULL | 10 |

| 007499 | ALLEN | SALESMAN | 7698 | 1981-02-20 00:00:00 | 1600.00 | 300.00 | 30 |
| 007844 | TURNER | SALESMAN | 7698 | 1981-09-08 00:00:00 | 1500.00 | 0.00 | 30 |

| 007900 | JAMES | CLERK | 7698 | 1981-12-03 00:00:00 | 950.00 | NULL | 30 |
+--------+--------+-----------+------+---------------------+---------+---------+--------+
14 rows in set (0.04 sec)- 例3：显示工资最高的员工的名字和工作岗位
mysql> select ename, job from emp where sal=(select max(sal) from emp);
+-------+-----------+
| ename | job |
+-------+-----------+
| KING | PRESIDENT |
+-------+-----------+
1 row in set (0.06 sec)- 例4：显示工资高于平均工资的员工信息
mysql> select * from emp where sal > (select avg(sal) from emp);
+--------+-------+-----------+------+---------------------+---------+------+--------+
| empno | ename | job | mgr | hiredate | sal | comm | deptno |
+--------+-------+-----------+------+---------------------+---------+------+--------+
| 007566 | JONES | MANAGER | 7839 | 1981-04-02 00:00:00 | 2975.00 | NULL | 20 |
| 007698 | BLAKE | MANAGER | 7839 | 1981-05-01 00:00:00 | 2850.00 | NULL | 30 |
| 007782 | CLARK | MANAGER | 7839 | 1981-06-09 00:00:00 | 2450.00 | NULL | 10 |
| 007788 | SCOTT | ANALYST | 7566 | 1987-04-19 00:00:00 | 3000.00 | NULL | 20 |
| 007839 | KING | PRESIDENT | NULL | 1981-11-17 00:00:00 | 5000.00 | NULL | 10 |
| 007902 | FORD | ANALYST | 7566 | 1981-12-03 00:00:00 | 3000.00 | NULL | 20 |
+--------+-------+-----------+------+---------------------+---------+------+--------+
6 rows in set (0.02 sec)- 例5：显示每个部门的平均工资和最高工资
mysql> select deptno, avg(sal), max(sal) from emp group by deptno;
+--------+-------------+----------+
| deptno | avg(sal) | max(sal) |
+--------+-------------+----------+
| 10 | 2916.666667 | 5000.00 |
| 20 | 2175.000000 | 3000.00 |
| 30 | 1566.666667 | 2850.00 |
+--------+-------------+----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)- 例6：显示平均工资低于2000的部门号和它的平均工资
mysql> select deptno, avg(sal) as avg_sal from emp group by deptno having avg_sal < 2000;
+--------+-------------+
| deptno | avg_sal |
+--------+-------------+
| 30 | 1566.666667 |
+--------+-------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)多表查询
经过上面的查询练习，好像任何查询需求我们都可以通过前面介绍的函数以及子句搭配select进行解决，那么下面这个问题呢：
显示雇员名、雇员工资以及所在部门的名字
因为雇员名ename，工资sal在emp表中，而部门名dname却在dept表中，所以前面的查询技巧好像无从下手了，这是就需要使用多表查询的方式了。
mysql> select * from EMP, DEPT;
其实我们只要使emp表中的deptno = dept表中的deptno字段的记录。
mysql> select ename, sal, dname from emp, dept where emp.deptno=dept.deptno;
+--------+---------+------------+
| ename | sal | dname |
+--------+---------+------------+
| SMITH | 800.00 | RESEARCH |
| ALLEN | 1600.00 | SALES |
| WARD | 1250.00 | SALES |
| JONES | 2975.00 | RESEARCH |
| MARTIN | 1250.00 | SALES |
| BLAKE | 2850.00 | SALES |
| CLARK | 2450.00 | ACCOUNTING |
| SCOTT | 3000.00 | RESEARCH |
| KING | 5000.00 | ACCOUNTING |
| TURNER | 1500.00 | SALES |
| ADAMS | 1100.00 | RESEARCH |
| JAMES | 950.00 | SALES |
| FORD | 3000.00 | RESEARCH |
| MILLER | 1300.00 | ACCOUNTING |
+--------+---------+------------+
14 rows in set (0.00 sec)多表查询本质就是将多个表在where中使用一个条件连接起来，然后在这个连接起来的大表中进行查找，看下面的例子：
- 例1：显示部门号为10的部门名，员工名和工资
mysql> select dname, ename, sal from emp, dept where emp.deptno=dept.deptno and emp.deptno=10;
+------------+--------+---------+
| dname | ename | sal |
+------------+--------+---------+
| ACCOUNTING | CLARK | 2450.00 |
| ACCOUNTING | KING | 5000.00 |
| ACCOUNTING | MILLER | 1300.00 |
+------------+--------+---------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)- 例2：显示各个员工的姓名，工资，及工资级别
mysql> select ename, sal, grade from emp, salgrade where emp.sal between losal and hisal;
+--------+---------+-------+
| ename | sal | grade |
+--------+---------+-------+
| SMITH | 800.00 | 1 |
| ALLEN | 1600.00 | 3 |
| WARD | 1250.00 | 2 |
| JONES | 2975.00 | 4 |
| MARTIN | 1250.00 | 2 |
| BLAKE | 2850.00 | 4 |
| CLARK | 2450.00 | 4 |
| SCOTT | 3000.00 | 4 |
| KING | 5000.00 | 5 |
| TURNER | 1500.00 | 3 |
| ADAMS | 1100.00 | 1 |
| JAMES | 950.00 | 1 |
| FORD | 3000.00 | 4 |
| MILLER | 1300.00 | 2 |
+--------+---------+-------+
14 rows in set (0.04 sec)
