Resolved: got output of 43 rows instead of 26
I used this code but it gives 43 rows, what can I do to make it give me 26 rows
SELECT
m.dept_no, m.emp_no, d.dept_name
FROM
departments_dup d
LEFT JOIN
dept_manager_dup m ON m.dept_no = d.dept_no
ORDER BY m.dept_no;
SELECT
m.dept_no, m.emp_no, d.dept_name
FROM
departments_dup d
LEFT JOIN
dept_manager_dup m ON m.dept_no = d.dept_no
ORDER BY m.dept_no;

Hi Nada!
Thanks for reaching out.
When using the LEFT JOIN the order of the tables matters. So, you should exchange the tables like this:
SELECT
m.dept_no, m.emp_no, d.dept_name
FROM
dept_manager_dup m
LEFT JOIN
departments_dup d ON m.dept_no = d.dept_no
ORDER BY m.dept_no;
Hope this helps.
Best,
Tsvetelin
