3. Write steps to create a database using phpMyAdmin

You should be having XAMPP or WAMP or LAMP installed on your system so that we can open phpMyAdmin and run it on the local server. 

Steps to create a database using phpMyAdmin

Step 1: Start your XAMPP server as shown on the below screen (I'm using XAMPP here)

For starting your server on Xampp, we simply have to start the services in the Xampp console which is shown in the below screenshot. 


Step 2: After starting these services type localhost in your search bar and a page will open. On this page click on the phpMyAdmin option which is shown below screenshot.  

Step 3: Creating a new database

Click on the New option which is shown in the below screen. After that, we have to enter our database name and then click on Create option to create a new database. 

After creating database you can create tables.
