Answer 1

after the select statement which creates a list of the statements needed to drop all stored procedures and functions. You can avoid the manual work of copy pasting the listed queries as follows:

    CONCAT('DROP ',ROUTINE_TYPE,' `',ROUTINE_SCHEMA,'`.`',ROUTINE_NAME,'`;') as stmt
FROM information_schema.ROUTINES into outfile '/tmp/a.txt';
