**Understanding SQL Query Results in a Relational Database**

In this lesson, we will analyze the result of a SQL query on a table with duplicate tuples. Consider the table \( R(x,y) \) which currently contains the following rows (note that there are duplicates):

\[ (1,2), (1,2), (2,3), (3,4), (3,4), (4,1), (4,1), (4,1), (4,2) \]

We need to compute the result of the following SQL query:

```sql
SELECT R1.x, R2.y, COUNT(*)
FROM R R1, R R2
WHERE R1.y = R2.x
GROUP BY R1.x, R2.y;
```

To determine the result, we will follow these steps:

1. **Join Condition**: Match rows from the table \( R \) as \( R1 \) and \( R2 \) such that \( R1.y = R2.x \).

2. **Group By**: Group the results by \( R1.x \) and \( R2.y \).

3. **Count**: For each group, count the number of matching rows.

Based on the given data and following these steps:

1. Identify all pairs \((R1.x, R2.y)\) such that \(R1.y = R2.x\):
   - \((1, 2)\) matches with \((2,3)\)
   - \((2,3)\) from \((3,4)\)
   - \((3,4)\) from \((4,1)\)
   - \((4,1)\) from \((1,2)\)

2. Apply the `GROUP BY` clause:
   - Group the results by \( (R1.x, R2.y) \)

3. Count the results in each group.

By analyzing this, it becomes clear that the valid options for the count would be multiples of the matching conditions. From those, select an appropriate tuple count resulting in the correct format asked in the query.

**Question:**
Which of the following tuples is in the result?

- \( a. (3,4,6) \)
- \( b. (3,2,6) \)
- \( c. (3,2,2) \)  (Correct Answer)
- \( d. (4
