Hi,

ANALYZE TABLE checks through and updates the key distribution information of
a table (affects join order).

CHECK TABLE check the table for errors. It also updates key statistics for
MyISAM tables. CHECK TABLE equals myisamchk -m [table] with MyISAM tables.

All of this can be found on the manual, too. And much more, actually.

Best regards,
Iikka

Oh by the way: SQL
