Snowflake: Create table with comment

You can specify comments for a table, and even the columns in the table:

>>> create table example
(col1 number comment 'a column comment')
comment='a table comment'
;

+-------------------------------------+
| status                              |
|-------------------------------------|
| Table EXAMPLE successfully created. |
+-------------------------------------+

>>> show tables like 'example';
