 Before you can do any of these tasks, you need to login with an admin user:
+\\
+    mysql -u root -p --- (the 'root' part assumes root is your mysql username)
+    mysql -u root -pPassword (no space between -p and your password)
+\\
+Once logged in you can do the following:
+\\
+\\
+==== To View Users ====
+    SELECT user, host FROM mysql.user;
+\\
+==== To Create a User ====
+    CREATE USER 'newuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
+    Once created, the user requires permissions
+    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'newuser'@'localhost';
+    If you want to be able to access the server from anywhere, replace localhost with %
+    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'admin'@'%';
+\\
+==== To Create a New User with all Privileges and a Password ====
+    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mydb.* TO 'username'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
+\\
+==== To Delete a User ====
+    DROP USER 'jeffrey'@'localhost';
