What is Semi Join?

Semi-Join matches the rows of two relations and then show the matching rows of the relation whose name is mentioned to the left side of ⋉ Semi Join operator. I am describing the more details in the below examples. Hopefully, it will help you to understand the semi-join.

Example 1 of Semi Join

ID	Rank	Salary

Table 2: Student

ID	RollNo	Marks
103	2017 – 01	80
