Given the relations R (A, B) and S (B, C) where values are all integers. Examine the undermentioned three relational algebra expressions
a. A, C(R⋈B=1S)
b. A(B = 1R)XC(B = 1S)
c. A, C (ARXB = 1S)
Two of the three expressions are equivalent (i.e., they produce the same answer on all databases), while one of them can produce a different answer
From the given option, we can conclude that query 1 produces the different result.
a) "\\pi_{(A,C)}(\\pi_AR \\times \\sigma_{B=1}S)"
b)
Let R = {(3, 4)} and S = {(1, 2)}
In this case, (a) and (b) produces empty result.
c)
In this, c produces {(3,2)}
