why comment is considered as ddl statement

SatyapkunalJun 6 2014 — edited Jun 6 2014

Hello All,

During an interview I was asked "why comment is considered as a DDL statement though it does not change structure of an object".

My reply was though it does not directly changes structure of an object [table, column, view etc], however it provides information about it.

Also comment adds data in data dictionary table.

But interviewer was not satisfied with my answer.

I tried searching answer on web, but could not find much details.

Could anybody please suggest something on this.
