|  5 | SQL Full Outer Join | In SQL the FULL OUTER JOIN combines the results of both left and right outer joins and returns all (matched or unmatched) rows from the tables on both sides of the join clause.                       |
|  3 | SQL Left Join       | The SQL LEFT JOIN, joins two tables and fetches rows based on a condition, which are matching in both the tables, and the unmatched rows will also be available from the table before the JOIN clause. |
