A SELECT SQL query retrieves data from a database in a tabular form. The first row, or header row, has the column names, and all the other rows have the data that was retrieved. In a crosstab, the data is condensed and the names of one or more columns are rotated. You can add row and column totals to a crosstab. For example, a list of salesmen’s monthly sales may include the months into the column headers.

DROP TABLE will fail if the table has other objects that depend on it like views and foreign key definitions.

PostgreSQL does not have a drop all tables command and you have to define your own way of performing this task.
