FROM clause

Here's a simplified syntax of FROM clause from SQL standard:

FROM table_reference ["," ...]

table_reference:
  table_factor | joined_table

joined_table:
    table_reference CROSS JOIN table_reference
  | table_reference [join_type] JOIN table_reference [join_specification]
  | table_reference NATURAL [join_type] JOIN table_reference

join_type:
    INNER
  | {LEFT | RIGHT | FULL} [OUTER]

join_specification:
    ON expr
  | USING "(" identifier ["," ...] ")"
