How to modify data in a table in MySQL?

To modify data in a MySQL table, you can use the UPDATE statement. Here are the general steps for updating data in a table.

1. Specify the table name to be updated using the UPDATE statement.
2. Use the SET clause to specify the columns to be updated and their new values.
3. Specify the rows to be updated using the WHERE clause. If the WHERE clause is not used, all rows will be updated.

For example, here is a simple example of an UPDATE statement. Let’s assume there is a table called “users” with columns for id, name, and email.

UPDATE users
SET name = 'John Doe', email = 'john.doe@example.com'
WHERE id = 1;

This statement will update the name and email of the user with an ID of 1 to ‘John Doe’ and ‘john.doe@example.com’.

Please note that updating data in a table is a critical operation, so make sure to use the WHERE clause carefully to ensure that only the necessary rows are updated.
