Which of the following code blocks will remove the rows where the value in column age is greater than 25 from the existing Delta table my_table and save the updated table?
A . SELECT * FROM my_table WHERE age > 25;
B . UPDATE my_table WHERE age > 25;
C . DELETE FROM my_table WHERE age > 25;
D . UPDATE my_table WHERE age <= 25;
E . DELETE FROM my_table WHERE age <= 25;

Answer: C

Explanation:

: The DELETE command in Delta Lake allows you to remove data that matches a predicate from a Delta table. This command will delete all the rows where the value in the column age is greater than 25 from the existing Delta table my_table and save the updated table. The other options are either incorrect or do not achieve the desired result. Option A will only select the rows that match the predicate, but not delete them. Option B will update the rows that match the predicate, but not delete them. Option D will update the rows that do not match the predicate, but not delete them. Option E will delete the rows that do not match the predicate, which is the opposite of what we want.
