You can use the SHOW TABLES statement to list all tables in the currently selected MySQL database. For example:
SHOW TABLES;
It will produce an output like the following:
+-------------------+ | Tables_in_db_name | +-------------------+ | user | | orders | +-------------------+
The name of the column in the output produced by the SHOW TABLES statement is always Tables_in_db_name, where db_name is the name of the database.
