Chapter 3: Advanced SQL
Overview
You got a taste of SQL in Chapter 1, "Quickstart to MySQL," but there's much more to learn. To begin to appreciate the possibilities and approach MySQL mastery, you need to understand the various logical, arithmetic, comparison, and bit operators available to MySQL. These allow you to build much more complex queries than the simple kind that you learned in the first chapter. Similarly, you'll find the need to run queries that require data from more than one table, called joins. The vagaries of left joins, right joins, outer joins, inner joins, and natural joins can seem confusing. This chapter will introduce all these to you, showing you when and how to use them.

Logical, arithmetic, comparison, and bit operators
