csv - Deleting rows from Hive external table -

i have hive external table created list of csv files.

if perform hive delete on table row (or number of rows), corresponding csv record/s deleted well?

as far know can't quite delete row in hive -- hive's not database, it's scripting language map reduce.

insert overwrite table mytable select * mytable  rowid <> 1; 

in case yes, csv updated. see answers question how delete , update record in hive
