LEFT JOIN 关键字会从左表 (table_name1) 那里返回所有的行，即使在右表 (table_name2) 中没有匹配的行。
LEFT JOIN 关键字语法
sql;">
SELECT column_name(s)
FROM table_name1
LEFT JOIN table_name2
ON table_name1.column_name=table_name2.column_name
注释：在某些数据库中， LEFT JOIN 称为 LEFT OUTER JOIN。
创建两张表并插入一些数据
sql;">
create table class(
class_id int,class_name varchar(20),class_grade char(1)
);
insert into class values (1,'语文','A');
insert into class values (2,'数学','B');
insert into class values (3,'英语','C');
create table score(
class_id int,stu_id varchar(20),score int
);
insert into score values (1,'A001',91);
insert into score values (2,95);
insert into score values (1,'A002',82);
insert into score values (2,87);
insert into score values (3,'B003',65);
查看表中的数据

如果on后面的条件是左表中的列(and leftTable.colName='***'),左表中满足条件的行和右表中的行进行匹配(根据on leftTable.id=rightTable.id)；左表中不满足条件的行，直接输出，其对应的右表中的列都是null。

如果on后面的条件是右表中的列(and rightTable.colName='***'),首先会根据(and rightTable.colName='***')过滤掉右表中不满足条件的行；然后，左表中的行根据(on leftTable.id=rightTable.id)和右表中满足条件的行进行匹配。
select * from class A left join score B on A.class_id=B.class_id and A.class_name='语文' and B.score=90;

/**********************过滤条件在on中时**********************/
总结一下，如果 left join on leftTable.id=rightTable.id 后还有其他条件：
(1)and leftTable.colName='***'，过滤左表，但是左表不满足条件的行直接输出，并将右表对应部分置为null
(2)and rightTable.colName='***'，过滤右表，对左表没有影响
(3)and leftTable.colName='***' and rightTable.colName='***'，就是上面(1)和(2)一起发挥作用
不管on后面有哪些条件，left join都要返回左表中的所有行！

/**********************过滤条件在where中时**********************/
过滤条件写在where中时，先根据where条件对表进行过滤，然后再执行left join
