What is the difference between delete and delete?

Answer 1

delete is used to destroy a single object. It will call the destructor of the object and free the memory. delete[] is used to free the memory which was allocated using new []. delete [] will call the destructor for each object in array and free the memory. ________________ As far as I can tell, they aren't delete bit different.

Answer 2

Delete: When you use Delete command, it deletes all the data or some specific data from a table. It will not release the memory space used by those data. For that you can rollback the deleted data.

Truncate: When you use Truncate command, it deletes all the data from a table and also releases the memory space occupied by those data. For that you can not rollback the data, when a table is truncated.

*******************

Truncate: Cut off/cut short leaving a remnant.

Delete: Remove completley.

Answer 3

Normally a delete is a piece of text you want to remove permanently. When you cut a piece of text you leave yourself the option of pasting it in another place. So you store it in memory for the time being.

I find cut and paste most useful when I write. I tend to write the conclusion of a paragraph first. Then I write the introduction. Then I write the body. Then I can cut the first sentence and move it to the last sentence in the paragraph. My paragraph then follows a logical progression. Later when the writing gets cold, I come back and do more cutting and pasting and also do some deleting where the logic does not make sense or does not really follow a logical progression. Cut is to cut and paste. Delete carries out the garbage.

Answer 4

Cut is similar to copy, the only differencec being that it deletes your work while it copies. Therefore, you can remove your work from one place to the other with copying and deleting. Deleting itself will remove your work from your document without saving or copying.
