Explanation:

  • This MySQL code selects the first name and last name of employees from a table named "employees".
  • It filters the results to only include employees whose manager_id is in the set of employee_ids where the department_id is in the set of department_ids associated with locations in the US.
  • This is achieved by using nested subqueries:
    • The innermost subquery selects location_ids from the "locations" table where the country_id is 'US'.
    • The next subquery selects department_ids from the "departments" table where the location_id is in the set obtained from the inner subquery.
    • The subsequent subquery selects employee_ids from the "employees" table where the department_id is in the set obtained from the previous subquery.
    • Finally, the outermost query selects the first name and last name of employees where the manager_id is in the set obtained from the inner subquery.

MySQL Subquery Syntax:

operand comparison_operator
operand IN (subquery)
operand comparison_operator SOME (subquery)

Where comparison_operator is one of these operators

=  >  <  >=  <=  <>  != 

and IN operator checks whether a value is within a set of values.

For example :

mysql> SELECT 2 IN (0,3,5,7);
        -> 0
mysql> SELECT 'wefwf' IN ('wee','wefwf','weg');
        -> 1

When used with a subquery, the word IN is an alias for = ANY. Thus, these two statements are the same:

SELECT s1 FROM t1 WHERE s1 = ANY (SELECT s1 FROM t2);
SELECT s1 FROM t1 WHERE s1 IN    (SELECT s1 FROM t2);

IN and = ANY are not synonyms when used with an expression list. IN can take an expression list, but = ANY cannot.
