Description
PL/SQL is Oracle Corporation’s extension to SQL, designed to enhance functionality within Oracle’s relational database. It adds programming features not available in standard SQL, such as variables, constants, conditional logic, loops, functions, procedures, triggers, and cursors. These capabilities address SQL’s limitations, enabling developers to implement comprehensive programming logic within database operations.
In PL/SQL, program units are the primary components, consisting of source code that is written, compiled, and executed within the Oracle database. Each program is structured as a block, which organizes code into declarations and executable statements. Blocks are defined by keywords such as DECLARE, BEGIN, EXCEPTION, and END, each indicating a specific section for declarations, execution, or error handling. The declaration section is optional and used only when constants or variables must be defined before execution.
