what does "source" do?

Recommended Posts

I am reading a book to learn PHP and mysql using Dreamweaver.  There is a step in the introduction to databases where you take a database, mydatabase.SQL and then load mysql and then type " source c:/mysql/data/mydatabase.sql".  After it processes several files, there is a mysql database set up in the data directory.  There are several tables etc.  The book does not describe what is happening with the mysql command "source".
