However excellent they are, most computer books are inherently
passive--readers simply take in text without having any opportunity to
react to it. The Oracle PL/SQL Developer's Workbook is a different
kind of animal! It's designed to engage you actively, to get you solving
programming problems immediately, and to help you apply what you've
learned about PL/SQL--and in the process deepen your knowledge of the
language. By tackling the exercises in this workbook, you'll find
yourself moving more rapidly along the learning curve to join the
growing ranks of PL/SQL experts.The Oracle PL/SQL Developer's Workbook
is a companion to Steven Feuerstein's bestselling Oracle PL/SQL
Programming and his other PL/SQL books from O'Reilly. It contains a
carefully constructed set of problems and solutions that will test your
language skills and help you become a better developer--both with PL/SQL

major features of PL/SQL, including those new to Oracle8i (e.g., Java
and web features, autonomous transactions, and bulk binds).You'll find
