为什么 select IN 在有 null 时不能正常工作

Why select IN doesnt work properly when there are nulls

为什么这会在 EXASOL DBMS 中返回一条记录

SELECT a, b FROM (SELECT NULL AS a, 'b' AS b) t
WHERE (a, b) NOT IN (SELECT NULL, 'b') 

?

谢谢,拉斐尔。

因为(NULL = NULL) <> True


create table three(
        one integer
        );

INSERT INTO three(one) VALUES(1),(2),(NULL);

SELECT one.one AS one
        , two.one AS two
        , one.one = two.one AS diff
FROM three one
CROSS JOIN three two
        ;

结果:

CREATE TABLE
INSERT 0 3
 one | two | diff 
-----+-----+------
   1 |   1 | t
   1 |   2 | f
   1 |     | 
   2 |   1 | f
   2 |   2 | t
   2 |     | 
     |   1 | 
     |   2 | 
     |     | 
(9 rows)

因此,将任何内容与 NULL 进行比较都会得到 NULL,不是 对或错。

在您的例子中,您比较的是元组,而不是标量。对于元组,情况更糟:如果其中一个元组中的任何一个元素为 NULL,则比较结果既不是 True 也不是 False。
