Set theory is a branch of discrete mathematics that deals with a collection of objects. There is a lot of conceptual overlap between set theory and relational database concepts. It is no wonder that the output of a query is frequently called a resultset.
Primitive set theoretic operations like union, intersection, and difference are increasingly supported in various implementations. We will now explore the theory behind these operations and how to use them in SQL.
Union
The union is an operation that combines elements of two sets. Let’s say we have the following two sets consisting of a bunch of numbers (Listing ...
