Combine Two Tables

题目

Table:Person

+-------------+---------+
| Column Name | Type    |
+-------------+---------+
| PersonId    | int     |
| FirstName   | varchar |
| LastName    | varchar |
+-------------+---------+
PersonId is the primary key column for this table.

Table:Address

+-------------+---------+
| Column Name | Type    |
+-------------+---------+
| AddressId   | int     |
| PersonId    | int     |
| City        | varchar |
| State       | varchar |
+-------------+---------+
AddressId is the primary key column for this table.

Write a SQL query for a report that provides the following information for each person in the Person table, regardless if there is an address for each of those people:

FirstName, LastName, City, State

SQL Schema:

Create table If Not Exists Person (PersonId int, FirstName varchar(255), LastName varchar(255));
Create table If Not Exists Address (AddressId int, PersonId int, City varchar(255), State varchar(255));
Truncate table Person;
insert into Person (PersonId, LastName, FirstName) values ('1', 'Wang', 'Allen');
Truncate table Address;
insert into Address (AddressId, PersonId, City, State) values ('1', '2', 'New York City', 'New York');

思路分析

这道题是一个很典型的left outer join的题型：

# Write your MySQL query statement below
select FirstName, LastName, City, State
from Person
left join Address
on Person.PersonId = Address.PersonId
