This workbook is not a self-contained teaching tool. In this book I assume that you have read about the PL/SQL features that are the subject of each chapter before you attempt that chapter’s exercises. For PL/SQL background information, see the following books (all published by O’Reilly):
- Oracle PL/SQL Programming
The “bible” of PL/SQL development. Describes all the basic language features, including modular programming.
- Oracle PL/SQL Programming Guide to Oracle8i Features
A companion to Oracle PL/SQL Programming. Describes the new PL/SQL features added in the Oracle8i release.
- Oracle Built-in Packages
Describes all the built-in packages and contains many examples of how to use them most effectively in your PL/SQL programs.
- Advanced Oracle PL/SQL Programming with Packages
Explains how you can write your own packages and dramatically improve your PL/SQL programs by doing so.
In addition, two pocket references (Oracle PL/SQL Language Pocket Reference and Oracle PL/SQL Built-ins Pocket Reference) provide compact summaries of the PL/SQL core language and built-in functions and packages.
