Inner Joins - a perfect match
Let's use the Chinook
database, which consists of tables related to an online store, to understand how inner joins work. The album
table lists albums by multiple artists. The track
table lists individual songs, each with a unique identifier, but also, an album_id
column that links each track to an album.
Let's find the tracks that belong to each album.
