What is the difference between DROP,DELETE,TRUNCATE table ?
Delete:It's an DML command which is used for deleting
particular table in the database...even though we delete the
data we can regain it by rollback command.
Example:SQL> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM emp;
COUNT(*)
----------
14
SQL> DELESQL> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM emp;
COUNT(*)
----------
14
SQL> DELETE FROM emp WHERE job = 'CLERK';
4 rows deleted.
SQL> COMMIT;
Commit complete.
Truncate:This command is a DDL Command which is used to
delete a table...I Just Conclude it as
Truncate=Delete+Commit...once u applied this on table u
can't get the data back...but the structure will be there..
Example:
SQL> TRUNCATE TABLE emp;
Table truncated.
SQL> SELECT COUNT(*) FROM emp;
COUNT(*)
----------
0
Drop:It is used to destroy entire structure of a
table...once we apply this command on any particular table
we can't get it in anyway...so be cautious while applying
this command.
Example:
SQL> DROP TABLE emp;
Table dropped.
SQL> SELECT * FROM emp;
SELECT * FROM emp
*
