Can you please let me know the difference in the following two queries in performnace?

1)

select e.* from emp e,dept d
where e.deptno=d.deptno

2)

select e.* from emp e
inner join dept d
on(e.deptno=d.deptno)

None at all. Oracle uses the same underlying methods to join data

1) is Oracle syntax
2) is ANSI/ISO syntax

I believe 1st one is Oracle Syntax and next one is ANSI one? and also the following statement as well

select * from emp e
where exist (select '1' from dept where deptno=e.deptno)


Kindly let me know amongst these three which one is faster and explanation.

None at all (I can keep doing this all day if you like)

Recent releases of Oracle are able to unnest subqueries and execute them as joins. Assuming DEPT.DEPTNO is unique, the semi-join that is executed will be functionally identical to a regular inner-join.
