Use SELECT in with count(*) SELECT count(*) from YOUR_TABLE

What's a quick query to determine how many records a given table contains? I don't think that a SELECT query is appropriate, as I don't intend on doing anything with the data selected. Note that I'm interfacing with MySQL via php, if that matters. Thanks.
