How to join two literal tables together in T-SQL

In this answer it is shown how a literal table can be created. However, I want to perform a full outer join or inner join on two literal tables, but I cannot figure out the syntax of the literal table after the join.

I have tried several variations on this:

SELECT * FROM 
(VALUES (1), (3), (5), (7), (9) ) AS X(a)
JOIN 
(VALUES (0), (2), (4), (6), (8) ) AS Y(b);

I get the error:

SQL Error (102): Incorrect syntax near ')'.

I have tried removing the outer parentheses around the second literal table:

SQL Error (156): Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'VALUES'.

I tried with and without the AS statements, and also tried removing other parentheses wherever I could think of.

What is the correct syntax to join two literal tables in T-SQL?

>Solution :

Simply add the ON clause, as you figured it out yourself:

SELECT * FROM 
(VALUES (1), (3), (5), (7), (9) ) AS X(a)
full outer JOIN 
(VALUES (0), (2), (4), (6), (8) ) AS Y(b)
on X.a=Y.b;
