如何在不重复结果的情况下将两个表连接在一起？

Question

I have two tables in a SQL database in which one references the other. One table is cpddata and the other is subdb. Each entry in cpddata may have between 0 and 50 subdb entries that reference the id from cpddata, for example, if I create an entry in cpddata and it's id number is 30, I have a column in subdb that is named cpdid and each subdb entry that relates to the cpddata entry will be assigned the 30 value.

In the past when I have had to reference one table to another table I have used SQL joins but if I join cpddata and subdb on cpdid then I get a duplicated result output for every subdb that is associated with the cpddata entry.

What I would like to be able to accomplish is to return the single cpddata entry but still have the subdb data attached to the correct cpddata entry and be filterable with AngularJS. Is there a "correct" method to achieving this?

Answer 1

USE DISTINCT

SELECT distinct C.ID, S.ID
FROM cpddata C
INNER JOIN subdb S
  ON C.ID = S.cpdid
