How can the value of recently generated sequence number be obtained?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
Imagine you have a special number generator in MySQL. Every time you use it, it gives you a new unique number.

The question is: How can you find out the last number generated by this number generator?

Here are the options:

A) LAST_INSERT_ID() - This is the correct answer! This function gives you the last generated sequence number.
B) LATEST_INSERT_ID() - This is not a valid function in MySQL.
C) INITIAL_INSERT_ID() - This is not a valid function in MySQL.
D) INSERT_ID() - This is the same as LAST_INSERT_ID() and will give you the last generated sequence number.
So, LAST_INSERT_ID() and INSERT_ID() are the functions you use to get the most recent number from the MySQL sequence generator.
