What permissions should i have set up for the Database User after i have WordPress set up?

According to codex,

For normal WordPress operations, such as posting blog posts, uploading
media files, posting comments, creating new WordPress users and
installing WordPress plugins, the MySQL database user only needs data
read and data write privileges to the MySQL database; SELECT, INSERT,
UPDATE and DELETE.

Note: Some plugins, themes and major WordPress updates might require
to make database structural changes, such as add new tables or change
the schema. In such case, before installing the plugin or updating a
software, you will need to temporarily allow the database user the
required privileges.
