In SQL, you can drop multiple tables with a single query by listing them in the DROP TABLE statement, separated by commas. Here's the syntax:
DROP TABLE table1, table2, table3;
This will drop table1, table2, and table3 in a single query.
Notes:
- Ensure that the tables you are dropping exist in the current database.
- Be cautious, as dropping tables will permanently remove the tables and all their data.
- You may also use
CASCADEif you want to automatically drop objects dependent on the tables, such as foreign key constraints or views. For example:
DROP TABLE table1, table2 CASCADE;
However, be careful when using CASCADE since it will also remove dependent objects.
Example:
DROP TABLE employees, departments, payroll;
This will drop the employees, departments, and payroll tables.
