以排序顺序编写一个等同于“ SHOW TABLES”的MySQL查询吗？

使用INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES以排序的顺序显示表。以下语法将按升序给出表的排序列表：

select TABLE_NAME from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
where TABLE_SCHEMA= 'yourDatabaseName' order by TABLE_NAME;

以下是实现与SHOW TABLES等效的查询：

mysql> select TABLE_NAME from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
   -> where TABLE_SCHEMA= 'sample' order by TABLE_NAME;

这将产生以下输出
