Oracle SQL statement for truncating the table

This will removes all records in the database.

Truncate statement does not need the commit or rollback transaction, once executed, this will remove all the record in a table without chances of getting the previous record

For example:

Table A1 has 1000 records.

In SQL:

SQL> select count(1) as count_rec from A1;

count_rec
--------
1000

SQL> truncate table A1;

After running the statement run again the count statement

SQL> select count(1) as count_rec from A1;

count_rec
--------
0
