Answer Posted / nageswarao
truncate is used for deleting all data from table.
it is similar to delete command without condition.
main differences b/w delete & truncate are
1.truncate is faster in execution than delete which will
restructure the complete table without bothering of data.
where as delete checks the data row by row wrotes
information into log and deletes.
2.with truncate we cannot use any conditions
