what is the difference between delete and truncate?

Answer Posted / nithya

The basic difference between delete and truncate is 'high
water mark'. High water mark indicates the max level to
which the data has risen in the table.

Deleting a table removes only the data from it whereas

Truncating a table removes all the data from the table and
resets the relevant pointers including 'high water mark'.
