Write a C/C++ program that connects to a MySQL server and checks if the InnoDB plug-in is installed on it. If so, your program should print the total number of disk writes by MySQL..

...i need Explanation for this code....

#include
#include

int main()
{
   MYSQL *conn;
   MYSQL_RES *res;
   MYSQL_ROW ROW;

   char *server = "localhost";
   char *USER = "root";
   char *password = "PASSWORD"; /* SET me first */
   char *database = "mysql";

   conn = mysql_init(NULL);

   /* Connect to database */
   if (!mysql_real_connect(conn, server, user, password, database, 0, NULL, 0))
   {
      fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", mysql_error(conn));
      exit(1);
   }

   /* send SQL query */
   if (mysql_query(conn, "show tables")) {
      fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", mysql_error(conn));
      exit(1);
   }

   res = mysql_use_result(conn);

   /* output table name */
   printf("MySQL Tables in mysql database:\n");
   while ((row = mysql_fetch_row(res)) != NULL)
      printf("%s \n", row[0]);

   /* close connection */
   mysql_free_result(res);
   mysql_close(conn);
}We don't do homework...the EXPLAINATION is in the code.... the /* */ are quotes that say /* Connect to database */ well that code is connecting to database???

you should really look elsewhere for a profession
