Implementation of ddl commands

DDL (Data Definition Language)

DDL statements are used to alter/modify a database or table structure and schema. These
statements handle the design and storage of database objects.

CREATE – create a new Table, database, schema

ALTER – alter existing table, column description
DROP – delete existing objects from database

Most commonly used datatypes for Table columns

Here we have listed some of the most commonly used datatypes used for columns in
tables.

Datatype Use

INT used for columns which will store integer values.

FLOAT used for columns which will store float values.

DOUBLE used for columns which will store float values.

VARCHAR used for columns which will be used to store characters and integers, basically a
string.

CHAR used for columns which will store char values(single character).

DATE used for columns which will store date values.

 TEXT used for columns which will store text which is generally long in length. For
example, if you create a table for storing profile information of a social networking
website, then for about me section you can have a column of type TEXT.

SQL: create command

create is a DDL SQL command used to create a table or a database in relational database
management system.

Creating a Database
To create a database in RDBMS, create command is used. Following is the syntax

DML commands are not auto-committed. It means changes are not permanent to database,
they can be rolled back.
