The INSERT INTO command in SQL allows you to add new records to a table. It's essential for storing new data in a structured manner.
Syntax
The basic syntax for inserting data into an SQL table is:INSERT INTO [table] (column1, column2, ...) VALUES (value1, value2, ...);
You can omit the columns if you're inserting into all columns of the table.
