## DROP STATISTICS

DROP STATISTICS — remove extended statistics

## Synopsis

    DROP STATISTICS [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...]

## 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 statistics 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.

## 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.
