I can't believe this hasn't been asked yet, but how do I get the shape of a datatable in a mysql database?
Eg. if I have a data table of 4 rows and two columns, I'd see something to that effect reported out. Perhaps [4,2] or something similar.
For the number of rows, a simple count query will do:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS num_rows FROM yourTable;
For the number of columns, we need to do a bit more work:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS num_columns
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'yourdatabasename'
AND TABLE_NAME = 'yourTable';
You could combine these into a single query if you wanted, or even write a stored procedure. By the way, I can't even think of the last time I needed to know the number of columns in a MySQL table. Most of the time, you would know beforehand which columns you wanted to access, and so you would not need a numerical count. The number of rows is another story, and often you might want to know this.
For MySQL use the following query in your database :
SELECT
table_schema,
table_name,
data_length,
index_length
FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'tableName';
They are stored in the information schema which keeps details of all the tables created.
