<database> An SQL Data Definition Language command that adds or removes columns or indexes to/from a table or modifies the table definition in some other way. This differs from the INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE (Data Modification Language) commands in that those change the data stored in the table but not its definition.
MySQL ALTER TABLE command (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/alter-table.html).
