# null {#null-function}
|
||||
|
||||
Accepts an inserted data of the specified structure and immediately drops it away. The function is used for convenience writing tests and demos.
|
||||
|
||||
**Syntax**
|
||||
|
||||
``` sql
|
||||
null('structure')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Parameter**
|
||||
|
||||
- `structure` — A list of columns and column types. [String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
|
||||
|
||||
**Returned value**
|
||||
|
||||
A table with the specified structure, which is dropped right after the query execution.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example**
|
||||
|
||||
Query with the `null` function:
|
||||
|
||||
``` sql
|
||||
INSERT INTO function null('x UInt64') SELECT * FROM numbers_mt(1000000000);
|
||||
```
|
||||
can replace three queries:
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE t (x UInt64) ENGINE = Null;
|
||||
INSERT INTO t SELECT * FROM numbers_mt(1000000000);
|
||||
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t;
|
||||
```
