Display specific table names with MySQL LIKE Operator


To display specific table names with LIKE operator, the syntax is as follows −

select table_name as `anyAliasName`
    from information_schema.tables
where table_name like ‘yourValue%';

Let us implement the above syntax to display specific table names with LIKE operator −

mysql> select table_name as `DemoTable1600`
   -> from information_schema.tables
   -> where table_name like 'DemoTable160_%';

This will produce the following output

+---------------+
| DemoTable1600 |
+---------------+
| demotable1600 |
| demotable1601 |
| demotable1602 |
| demotable1603 |
| demotable1604 |
| demotable1605 |
| demotable1606 |
| demotable1607 |
