En d’autres termes, renvoiez les lignes qui sont dans la table CATEGORY\$1STAGE, mais pas dans la table CATEGORY : ``` select * from category_stage except select * from category; catid | catgroup | catname | catdesc -------+----------+---------+---------------------------------- 12 | Concerts | Comedy | All stand up comedy performances (1 row) ``` La requête équivalente suivante utilise le synonyme MINUS. ``` select * from category_stage minus select * from category; catid | catgroup | catname | catdesc -------+----------+---------+---------------------------------- 12 | Concerts | Comedy | All stand up comedy performances (1 row) ``` Si vous inversez l’ordre des expressions SELECT, la requête ne renvoie aucune ligne.
