DROP STATISTICS(7)	  PostgreSQL 18.6 Documentation       DROP STATISTICS(7)

NAME
     DROP_STATISTICS - remove extended statistics

SYNOPSIS
     DROP STATISTICS [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION
     DROP  STATISTICS  removes	statistics object(s) from the database. Only the
     statistics object's owner, the schema owner, or a superuser can drop a sta-
     tistics object.

PARAMETERS
     IF EXISTS
	 Do not throw an error if the statistics object does not exist. A notice
	 is issued in this case.

     name
	 The name (optionally schema-qualified)  of  the  statistics  object  to
	 drop.

     CASCADE
     RESTRICT
	 These key words do not have any effect, since there are no dependencies
	 on statistics.

EXAMPLES
     To  destroy two statistics objects in different schemas, without failing if
     they don't exist:

	 DROP STATISTICS IF EXISTS
	     accounting.users_uid_creation,
	     public.grants_user_role;

COMPATIBILITY
     There is no DROP STATISTICS command in the SQL standard.

SEE ALSO
     ALTER STATISTICS (ALTER_STATISTICS(7)), CREATE  STATISTICS  (CREATE_STATIS-
     TICS(7))
