How can we use MySQL SELECT statement to count number of rows in a table?
We need to use COUNT(*) function with SELECT clause to count the total number of rows in a table.
Example
mysql> Select COUNT(*) from Student; +----------+ | COUNT(*) | +----------+ | 4 | +----------+ 1 row in set (0.06 sec)
The query above counts the total number of rows of ‘Student’ table.
We can also use WHERE clause with COUNT(*) function as follows:
mysql> Select COUNT(*) from Student where Address = 'Delhi'; +----------+ | COUNT(*) | +----------+ | 2 | +----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
