Subquery con EXISTS

Sintassi

SELECT ... WHERE EXISTS <subquery_tabella>

Spiegazione

Le subquery che usano la parola chiave EXISTS restituiscono TRUE se la subquery restituisce almeno una riga. Al contrario, le subquery che usano NOT EXISTS restituiscono TRUE solo se la subquery non restituisce alcuna riga.

Le subquery con EXISTS ignorano le colonne specificate nella parte SELECT della subquery, perché non sono rilevanti. Per esempio,

SELECT col1 FROM t1 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM t2); 

e

SELECT col1 FROM t1 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT col2 FROM t2); 

producono risultati identici.

Esempi

CREATE TABLE sq1 (num TINYINT);

CREATE TABLE sq2 (num2 TINYINT);

INSERT INTO sq1 VALUES(100);

INSERT INTO sq2 VALUES(40),(50),(60);

SELECT * FROM sq1 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sq2 WHERE num2>50);
+------+
| num  |
+------+
|  100 |
+------+

SELECT * FROM sq1 WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sq2 GROUP BY num2 HAVING MIN(num2)=40);
