How to generate the “create table” sql statement for an existing table in postgreSQL

Question

I have created a table in postgreSQL. I want to look at the SQL statement used to create the table but cannot figure it out.

How do I get the create table

Answer 1

The easiest method I can think of is to install pgAdmin 3 (found here) and use it to view your database. It will automatically generate a query that will create the table in question.
