SQLite DELETE Query To delete the existing records from a table, the DELETE query is used in SQLite.
Syntax:
DELETE FROM table_name WHERE conditions;
Example 1: TEACHERS Table:
| ID | NAME | SUBJECT |
| 1 | Jim | English |
| 2 | John | Geology |
| 3 | Watson | French |
| 4 | Holmes | Chemistry |
| 5 | Tony | Physics |
Example:
DELETE FROM TEACHERS WHERE ID = 2; |
Explanation: Here we have deleted the row from an already existing table “TEACHERS” where ID is 2. To verify the table data execute the below query. SELECT * FROM TEACHERS;
Output:
| ID | NAME | SUBJECT |
| 1 | Jim | English |
| 3 | Watson | French |
| 4 | Holmes | Chemistry |
| 5 | Tony | Physics |
Example 2:
DELETE FROM TEACHERS; |
Explanation: Here we have deleted all the rows from an already existing table “TEACHERS”, but not the table itself. To verify the table data execute the below query. SELECT * FROM TEACHERS;
