Answer:
data manipulation language
Explanation:
Data manipulation language (DML) is a family of similar syntactic elements used to select, insert, delete and update data in a database. Performing data read-only queries is sometimes considered a component of the DML.
The best known data manipulation language is the SQL (Structured Query Language) that is used to receive and manipulate data in a relational database. Other forms of DML are those used by IMS / DLI, CODASYL databases, such as IDMS and others.
Data manipulation languages comprise only the SQL statements that allow you to modify data, but not modify the schema or objects of the database. The manipulation using SQL statements of persistent database objects such as tables or stored procedures, is considered Data definition language and not Data manipulation language. In SQL these two categories are similar in their syntax, data types, expressions, etc., but they are different in their general function.
