Your company is developing a new client tracking system, and you have been given the task of creating a new table within the database to store basic client information such as 'ClientID', 'ClientName', and 'ContactNumber'. Which statement would you use to initially set up this table?
The correct answer is CREATE TABLE, because this SQL statement defines a brand-new table and its columns inside the current database. ALTER TABLE is used only for modifying an existing table definition, such as adding or deleting columns. INSERT INTO adds new rows to an existing table. CREATE DATABASE establishes an entirely new database, not a table within one.
