Create Table Statement


The CREATE TABLE statement is used to create a new table in a database.

A table must be created before storing any data.

Each table is defined with columns and their data types.

Before creating a table, the database must be selected.

SQL executes table commands only inside the active database.

This ensures tables are created in the correct location.

The CREATE TABLE command defines the table structure.

Column names and data types are written inside parentheses.

Each column is separated by a comma.

Tables can contain multiple columns depending on the requirement.

The structure should be planned before table creation.

A well-designed table makes data management easier.

Once a table is created, it can be used to insert, update, and retrieve data.

CREATE TABLE is one of the most important SQL commands.

Every database system relies on properly designed tables.
