sqliteHow do I delete a column in an SQLite database?

To delete a column in an SQLite database, you can use the ALTER TABLE statement. The syntax is as follows:

ALTER TABLE table_name DROP COLUMN column_name;

For example, if you have a table called students and want to delete the age column, you can execute the following statement:

ALTER TABLE students DROP COLUMN age;

This statement will drop the age column from the students table.

The parts of this statement are:

• ALTER TABLE: This statement is used to modify the structure of an existing table.
• table_name: This is the name of the table you want to modify.
• DROP COLUMN: This clause is used to delete a column from the table.
• column_name: This is the name of the column you want to delete.
