To import a CSV file in MySQL command line, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open the command-line tool and log in to the MySQL database.
  2. Switch to mydatabase.
  3. Create a table named “mytable” with three columns: column1 (integer), column2 (string of up to 50 characters), and column3 (date).
  4. Import the data from the ‘data.csv’ file located at ‘/path/to/data.csv’ into the ‘mytable’ table, with fields separated by a comma and lines separated by a new line character, while ignoring the first row.
  5. The file path and name of the CSV file is data.csv.
  6. FIELDS TERMINATED BY ‘,’ means that the fields are separated by commas.
  7. LINES TERMINATED BY ‘\n’ means that each line is separated by a newline character.
  8. “IGNORE 1 ROWS” means to skip the first row in the CSV file (usually the header).

After importing, you can use the SELECT statement to query the imported data. For example, you can use the following command to query the data in the table: SELECT * FROM mytable;
