This question is about updating data in a MySQL database.When you want to change something in a table, you need to tell MySQL which table and which column you want to update.
Sometimes, you can just use the column name, and MySQL will know which table you mean. This is called an implied table name.
But when you're dealing with just one table, you don't have to use the full name of the table before the column name. It's enough to just write the column name.
So the answer is True.
Let's say you have a table called "students" and you want to update the "age" column. You can write:
```sql UPDATE students SET age = 20 WHERE name = "John"; ```
Here, you don't need to write "students.age", because MySQL knows you're updating the "students" table.
You can directly update the "age" column.
It's like saying "in the students table, change the age to 20 where the name is John."
