If a table is corrupted, then it's most likely that the problem is in
the indexes and not in the data part. All of the above check types
checks the indexes throughly and should thus find most errors.
If you just want to check a table that you assume is ok, you should use
no check options or the @code{QUICK} option. The later should be used
when you are in a hurry and can take the very small risk that
@code{QUICK} didn't find an error in the data file (In most cases
@strong{MySQL} should find, under normal usage, any error in the data
file. If this happens then the table will be marked as 'corrupted'.
@code{FAST} and @code{CHANGED} are mostly intended to be used from a
script (for example to be executed from cron) if you want to check your
table from time to time. In most cases you @code{FAST} is to be prefered
over @code{CHANGED}. (The only case when it isn't is when you suspect a
bug you have found a bug in the @code{MyISAM} code.).
@code{EXTENDED} is only to be used after you have run a normal check but
still get strange errors from a table when @strong{MySQL} tries to
update a row or find a row by key (this is VERY unlikely to happen if a
normal check has succeeded!).
