As i understand this question is not about removing the
constraint in a column. It is about removing the columns
containing default constraint.
If it is about removing the default constraint then given
answer no. 1 is absolutely correct.It's quite a bit similar.
However, if you want to remove column containing default
constraint,first you need to drop the default constraint
then you can remove the column/'s :-
First remove the constraint :
eg :- as answer 1.
step 1:- alter table <table-name> drop constraint
<constraint-name>
step 2: alter table <table-name>
drop column <column-name>

Answer / suraj
-- CONSTRAINTS are used to limit the type of data that
can go in to a table.
-- You can have multiple CONSTRAINTS in any one column
of a table.
-- You don't have to drop CONSTRAINTS in order to be
able to drop the table.
