### Important note!
Using multiple `arrayJoin` with same expression may not produce expected results due optimizations.
For that cases, consider changing array expression that is repeated with extra operations that do not affect join result - e.g. `arrayJoin(arraySort(arr))`, `arrayJoin(arrayConcat(arr, []))`
Example:
```sql
SELECT
arrayJoin(dice) as first_throw,
/* arrayJoin(dice) as second_throw */ -- is technically correct, but will annihilate result set
arrayJoin(arrayConcat(dice, [])) as second_throw -- intentionally changed expression to force re-evaluation
FROM (
SELECT [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] as dice
);
```
Note the [ARRAY JOIN](../statements/select/array-join.md) syntax in the SELECT query, which provides broader possibilities.
`ARRAY JOIN` allows you to convert multiple arrays with the same number of elements at a time.
