i'm a super beginner in PL/SQL and i need the codes with comments so i can understand it. i searched the forum, and tried dense rank in number 1 but it it is not working. i'm using oracle8.05 for windows NT

1.using emp table. Create a PL/SQL program.
Sample Output:
Enter number: 3
NAME SALARY
FLOYD 6000 --(1st)
JOHN 4000 --(tie for 2nd)
ALI 4000 --(tie for 2nd)
SMITH 2000 --(3rd)

2.

ask for a user input, must accept character,number, or combination

sample input:
input: aBC25sa9a5
output:
char: aBcSaA --(alternate lower-upper)
num: 25+9+5=39

input: abcde
output:
char: AbcdE --(1st and last upper)
num: no_number_found

input: 12345
output:
char: no_char_found
number: 61725 --( times 5 if pure numbers)
Previous Topic: pipelined functions
Next Topic: only 3 quarters prior to given date
