Sub-Reports Vs Joins

Hi,

Please explain me the differences between Sub-Reports and Joins.

I know these things, let me know if I am correct.

1)Sub-Reports provide the filtering capability for Main reports, whereas, Joins are used to combine columns of 2(or more) tables based on matched column.

2)Sub-Reports, by themselves, are Individual report defintions. Joins are only the options, they can't run on their own.

Please let me know the other differences.
