full outer join，mysql不支持full outer join，sql应该写成

SELECT 
    s.id AS s_id,
    s.FIRST_NAME AS s_f,
    s.LAST_NAME AS s_l,
    t.FIRST_NAME AS t_f,
    t.LAST_NAME AS t_l,
    t.id AS t_id
FROM
    student AS s
        LEFT JOIN
    teacher AS t ON s.id = t.id 
UNION SELECT 
    s.id AS s_id,
    s.FIRST_NAME AS s_f,
    s.LAST_NAME AS s_l,
    t.FIRST_NAME AS t_f,
    t.LAST_NAME AS t_l,
    t.id AS t_id
FROM
    teacher AS t
        LEFT JOIN
    student AS s ON s.id = t.id
