CompTIA DS0-001 Exam - Topic 5 Question 44 Discussion

Posted by Colton on Aug 02, 2025 at 04:18 PM

Which of the following commands is part of DDL?

Suggested Answer: C

The command that is part of DDL is CREATE. CREATE is a SQL command that belongs to the category of DDL, or Data Definition Language. DDL is a subset of SQL commands that are used to define or modify the structure or schema of a database, such as tables, columns, constraints, indexes, views, etc. CREATE is a DDL command that is used to create a new object in a database, such as a table, column, constraint, index, view, etc. For example, the following statement uses the CREATE command to create a new table called employee with four columns:

CREATE TABLE employee (

emp_id INT PRIMARY KEY,

emp_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,

emp_dept VARCHAR(20),

emp_salary DECIMAL(10,2)

);

Copy

The other options are either part of different categories of SQL commands or not SQL commands at all. For example, UPDATE is a SQL command that belongs to the category of DML, or Data Manipulation Language. DML is a subset of SQL commands that are used to manipulate or modify the data or content of a database, such as inserting, updating, deleting, or selecting data. GRANT is a SQL command that belongs to the category of DCL, or Data Control Language. DCL is a subset of SQL commands that are used to control or manage the access or permissions of users or roles on a database, such as granting or revoking privileges or roles. INSERT is a SQL command that belongs to the category of DML, or Data Manipulation Language. INSERT is a DML command that is used to insert new data into a table.Reference:CompTIA DataSys+ Course Outline, Domain 1.0 Database Fundamentals, Objective 1.2 Given a scenario, execute database tasks using scripting and programming languages.

GRANT is also a DDL command, right?

I always get confused between DDL and DML. I think CREATE is definitely DDL, but I'm not sure about the others.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like GRANT might be part of DDL too, but CREATE seems more obvious.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember UPDATE and INSERT are more about data manipulation, not definition.
NO

I think DDL stands for Data Definition Language, so maybe CREATE is the right answer?
CH

I remember learning that DDL commands are used to define the database schema, so CREATE would definitely be part of that. I'm pretty confident the answer is C.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know DDL is for managing the database structure, but I'm not sure which of these specific commands fall under that category. I'll have to guess and hope for the best.

Okay, I've got this. DDL stands for Data Definition Language, so the commands that create, modify, or delete database objects like tables and indexes are the DDL ones. I think the answer is C.

I'm pretty sure CREATE is a DDL command, but I'm not 100% sure about the others. I'll review my notes on SQL command types.

Hmm, this one seems tricky. I'll have to think carefully about the differences between DDL and DML commands.

INSERT is definitely not part of DDL, so it's not the answer.

Haha, D) INSERT? Really? That's a DML command, not DDL. Someone's been skipping their database classes!

Hmm, I'd say B) GRANT is also a DDL command. Gotta love those permissions, am I right?
