how to do select into table with clickhouse?

Question

I'm new to Clickhouse but I recall SQL having select into capabilities.

SELECT column1, column2, column3, ...
INTO newtable 
FROM oldtable
WHERE condition;

What is the Clickhouse way to do that ?

Answer 1

create table xxx_new Engine=Log as select 1 a, 2 b

DESCRIBE TABLE xxx_new
