Description
IN is a special predicate to evaluate whether the specified <expression> is equal to one of the values in the <value list> or <nested select>. The <value list> contains a list of comma separated values. The <nested select> is an SQL SELECT clause.
The optional NOT evaluates whether the specified <expression> is not equal to any of the values in the <value list> or <nested select>.
The data type must be the same for the <expression> and all the values in <value list> or returned by the <nested select>.
