You want to read chapter 2.

Page 85 says the exact line you are looking for. Other places in the chapter helps to break down the attributes. Basically it is:

column_name column_type (column_attributes) (general_attributes)

I am using DuBois' book to do a tutorial and I am trying to create a table. In the book it says to type CREATE TABLE tbl_name ( column specs ) What is the Syntax to make columns? I have looked in the book and can't find where it says the exact syntax. I tried leaving it blank but it says i need at least one column. I also used (15,7) but it did not like that either.
