Teach your students how to use the PL/SQL programming language effectively as you introduce them to one of the most popular and widely used software programs in large companies: Oracle® 11g.

This edition also covers more advanced topics, such as dynamic SQL and compound triggers, as well as important developments in bulk processing, PL/SQL compiler features, and hiding source code. Updates throughout reflect the latest Oracle 11g release, and figures and examples are shown in the user-friendly SQL Developer tool. The book is written from a developer's perspective to focus on the PL/SQL component of Oracle, using numerous real-world examples and a straightforward writing style. This book, and a complete instructor support package, offers the resources you need to help students prepare for the new Oracle certification exam or simply master the PL/SQL programming language with Oracle.
