DROP deletes a table from the database completely, including the table structure and all the associated constraints, relationships with other tables, and access privileges. TRUNCATE deletes all rows from a table without affecting the table structure and constraints. DROP works slower than TRUNCATE. Both are irreversible DDL (Data Definition Language) commands.
