# Table Functions
Table function is a method of constructing a table.
You can use table functions in:
* [CREATE TABLE AS <table_function()>](../create.md#create-table-query) query.
It's one of the methods of creating a table.
* [FROM](../select.md#select-from) clause of the `SELECT` query.
The method of creating a temporary table, that is available only in current query. The table is deleted after the query finishes.
