In MySQL, how to copy the content of one table to another table within the same database?

Question

I am new to MySQL. I would like to copy the content of one table to another table within the same database. Basically, I would like to insert to a table from another table.

Answer 1

This worked for me,

CREATE TABLE newtable LIKE oldtable;

Replicates newtable with old table

INSERT newtable SELECT * FROM oldtable;

Copies all the row data to new table.

Thank you
