MySQL UNION
Combining result sets.
MySQL UNION Operator
The UNION operator is used to combine the result-set of two or more SELECT statements.
- Every SELECT statement within UNION must have the same number of columns
- The columns must also have similar data types
- The columns in every SELECT statement must also be in the same order
Note: The UNION operator selects only distinct values by default. To allow duplicate values, use UNION ALL.
