Description
DROP TABLE removes tables from the database. Only its owner may destroy a table. A table may be emptied of rows, but not destroyed, by using DELETE.
DROP TABLE always removes any indexes, rules, triggers, and constraints that exist for the target table. However, to drop a table that is referenced by a foreign-key constraint of another table, CASCADE must be specified. (CASCADE will remove the foreign-key constraint, not the other table itself.)
Notes
Refer to CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE for information on how to create or modify tables.
Usage
To destroy two tables, films and distributors:
DROP TABLE films, distributors;
