Hello. My dilemma is: which of the two is more complex(i mean the time
complexity)

1 single join of n tables having t tuples each amounting to t^n tuples
preceded by one Select * statement; OR

n joins of 2 tables having t tuples each amounting to n*t^2 tuples
n Select * statements

Question :::

Whether the time complexity depends on the no of tuples in the joined
table or the no. of joins and the no. of select statements?

Thanks in advance.
