Online Documentation

Online help can be found on the Oracle web-server: 

 https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/19/index.html

The Learn About Oracle Database section will be most interest.

Summary so far

By now you:

  • Will have an Oracle account, ensure you remember your password if you have changed it
  • Have been introduced to the tables and general SQL background
  • Can list what tables you own
  • Can carry out simple queries
  • Know where to find the online help

If you cannot do any of these, please review the SQL Overview again.

For example, ensure you know how to do the following:

  • Show the contents of the EMP table
  • Show the structure of the EMP table

Next Step

This completes Section One. Now return to the Workbook.
