To see an empty table structure in MySQL, you can use the DESCRIBE command. The DESCRIBE command provides information about the structure of a table, including the column names, data types, and any constraints .

However, if the table is empty, the DESCRIBE command will not return any rows. To see an empty table structure, you can use the CREATE TABLE command with the LIKE clause.

Here's an example:


CREATE TABLE new_table LIKE existing_table;

In the example above, we use the CREATE TABLE command to create a new table called new_table, using the LIKE clause to copy the structure of an existing table called existing_table. Since the existing table is empty, the new table will also be empty, but it will have the same structure as the original table.

You can then use the DESCRIBE command to view the structure of the new table:


DESCRIBE new_table;

This will show you the column names, data types, and any constraints for the empty table.
