For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
MySQL joins revisited

Sameer writes:

"Nobody can clear JOINS as this manual has done. It is SUPERB.. Thanks. It helped me a lot to understand. I will appreciate if you can make much clear to the INNER AND SELF JOINS."

in his review of a previous "Horse's Mouth" posting I made [here], which gets hundreds of hits every day, mainly search engine arrivals, and a sprinkling of "wow - that page was great" responses with no - as yet - contrary negatives. It's fantastic to get such feedback from time to time and it's all the more special when I think about just how many web pages I visit, and how very rarely I write to the page provider to compliment him.

We provide MySQL training. So, naturally, I should be able to explain things like the different join types very well, shouldn't I? Yes and no - the printed explanation as you see in books and on websites is often different to the more interactive demonstration which we do in class ... that can be even more effective!




Sameer goes on to ask for more information on other subjects such as self joins. With around 8000 pages on our site, there are plenty of answers here but we haven't yet got an indexing and search system that's as effective as we would like. So, Sameer, can I point you to:
• Our forum archive for an answer on SELF JOIN
• A previous blog entry for our MySQL IAQ (infrequently answered questions) page.
