This course takes a comprehensive look at the Oracle PL/SQL programming language.  We begin with a thorough review of the language syntax and datatype primitives.  We next explore  user-defined datatypes, flow control, scope and error management. 

The majority of the course is devoted to taking that foundational knowledge and applying it to the resolution of very real-world examples. Real-world examples include:

1.  development of a password strength function,
2. parsing XML files,
3. reading an external directory, and
4. generating random number, range-based random number and even weighted random numbers.

Join Dr. Phillips as he transfers his many years of PL/SQL programming skill and knowledge.
