Question

Which of the following is not a type of SQL statement?

• A. Data Manipulation Language (DML)
• B. Data Definition Language (DDL)
• C. Data Control Language (DCL)
• D. Data Standard Language (DSL)

Answer 1

The correct option is D Data Standard Language (DSL)

Data standard language is not a type of SQL statement.

Structured query language (SQL) is a standard computer language for relational database management and data manipulation. SQL is used to query, insert, update and modify data. SQL itself is not a programming language, but its standard allows creating procedural extensions for it, which extends it to functionality of a mature programming language.

Data manipulation language (DML), data definition language (DDL), data control language (DCL) are types of SQL statement because these languages are used in SQL.
