Which of the following command can be used to modify data in an SQL Table? A. INSERT B. DELETE C. UPDATE D. SELECT Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A, B, C only
SQL commands that change the rows stored in a table belong to the Data Manipulation Language (DML) write operations. Modifying the data of a table means adding, removing or changing its rows.
A. INSERT adds new rows to a table, so it changes the data held in the table.
B. DELETE removes existing rows that satisfy a condition, so it also changes the table's data.
C. UPDATE changes the values of columns in existing rows, the most direct form of modification.
D. SELECT only retrieves rows and returns a result set; it never alters the stored table (it is a query, not a modification).
Hence INSERT, DELETE and UPDATE modify data, and every combination that includes SELECT (or leaves out INSERT or DELETE) is wrong.
A, B, C only option is correct.
