What is a right outer join?
A right outer join is a method of combining tables. The result includes unmatched rows from only the table that is specified after the RIGHT OUTER JOIN clause.

What is right join in SQL?
RIGHT JOIN: RIGHT JOIN is similar to LEFT JOIN. This join returns all the rows of the table on the right side of the join and matching rows for the table on the left side of join.
