Can we use "Delete * from table" to delete all data of table?

Instead use the drop table command Syntax drop tablename;

to remove all data of table, you only need to write this DELETE FROM table_name ref: https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_delete.asp

Yes. if you look up the delete statement here https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_delete.asp (or in the individual manuals for specific SQL server flavors), you can see the syntax for DELETE: DELETE FROM table_name WHERE condition; Further down the page, it tells you how to delete all rows. DELETE FROM table_name; or DELETE * FROM table_name; I think this is one of those RTM scenarios, so here are some links to good reference material on SQL: W3 Schools SQL tutorial and reference: https://www.w3schools.com/sql/default.asp MySQL manual: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/

Yes and No. yes you can use delete to eliminate data from a table but if you have an Index and is identity the counter is not restarted. example you have a table and you pk is in 100 if you delete all the data whit the statement delete from tabla and Next you insert a New row the pk contineus whit 101. if you whant yo delete all the data, you need to use Truncate table, this eliminates all the data complety

No, you cannot write that. It is because when the statement DELETE FROM TABLE is written, it takes the table as a whole. Moreover, you need to specify a condition to the statement if you want to delete only some specific data.
