oracle proc

Oracle PL/SQL is a procedural language extension of SQL used to create stored procedures, functions, triggers, and other database objects. Here are the basic steps to create a procedure in Oracle PL/SQL:

1. Open the SQL Developer tool or any other Oracle SQL editor.
2. Connect to the database where you want to create the procedure.
3. Open a new SQL worksheet and start writing the PL/SQL code.
4. Declare any necessary variables to use in the procedure.
5. Write the SQL statements that will be executed in the procedure.
6. Use the BEGIN and END keywords to enclose the procedure code block.
7. Use the CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE statement to create the procedure.
8. Test the procedure by executing it with appropriate input parameters.

Here's an example of a simple Oracle PL/SQL procedure:

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE say_hello (name IN VARCHAR2) IS
BEGIN
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Hello ' || name || '!');
END;

This procedure takes a name as input and outputs a greeting message using the DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE statement. To execute this procedure, you can call it like this:

BEGIN
   say_hello('John');
END;

This will output "Hello John!" in the console.
