odps-table: Delete table.
$ drop table ${table_name};
try on your machine
The command "drop table ${table_name};" is a SQL command that is used to remove a table from a database.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "drop table" is the syntax used to indicate that you want to drop a table.
- "${table_name}" is a placeholder that represents the name of the table you want to drop. The use of "${}" indicates that the actual table name needs to be provided when executing the command. For example, if you want to drop a table named "customers", the command would be "drop table customers;".
It's important to note that when you drop a table, all the data stored in that table will be permanently deleted. Therefore, you should use this command with caution and make sure that you have a backup of the data if needed.
