Hi,
I have been making some test with EXISTS and I found I case that I do not understand too well:
CREATE TABLE testing (
number_id serial,
number1 integer,
number2 integer
);
INSERT INTO testing (number1, number2) VALUES (1,1),(1,2),(2,3);
SELECT *
FROM testing
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM testing WHERE testing.number_id = number_id AND number1 = 1);
As far I understand the documentation the select query should return row 1 and 2, but it is returning 1, 2 and 3.
Why is this happening ?
