What are the other commands to know the structure of a table using mysql commands except explain command?
Answer / Surjeet Kumar Jha
To know the structure of a table in MySQL, you can use the DESCRIBE or SHOW COLUMNS FROM command instead of the EXPLAIN command. The DESCRIBE command provides a human-readable description of the table's columns, while SHOW COLUMNS FROM displays more detailed information about each column.
