Ok, so I listed out all the table using '\l'. 3 were
displayed:

List of databases
Name | Owner
-----------+----------
template0 | postgres
template1 | postgres
test | postgres
(3 rows)

However, when I did

\d test

It came back with the error:

Did not find any relation named "test".

Why? Is the table not really there? If that's the case,
why is it showing up with '\l'?

Also, I was reading through the documentation and I just
want to be clear what a "tuple" is. Is it a row of data or
anything else in the singular that is returned by a query?

thnx,
Chris
