Is there any limit on the number of tables we can create in single database in MySql?

Somewhere on web I've seen an article saying that there is a restriction on the number of tables we can create in MySQL? or maybe I misunderstood.

I just want to confirm it.

Refer - https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/database-count-limit.html

MySQL has no limit on the number of databases. The underlying file system may have a limit on the number of directories.

MySQL has no limit on the number of tables. The underlying file system may have a limit on the number of files that represent tables. Individual storage engines may impose engine-specific constraints. InnoDB permits up to 4 billion tables.
