"Language makes it possible for a child to incorporate his parents’ verbal prohibitions,
to make them part of himself....We don’t speak of a conscience yet in the child who is
just acquiring language, but we can see very clearly how language plays an indispensable
role in the formation of conscience.
In fact, the moral achievement of man, the whole complex of factors that go into the
organization of conscience is very largely based upon language." - Selma H. Fraiberg

PL/SQL is a language of difference. It is not intended to be a general purpose language. But
it is more used with SQL, the Query Language. By now you will be knowing that in SQL there is no
way you can run a loop, or to do more complex calculations just by using a SQL Query. So PL/SQL
has been built to bridge this gap.
In this chapter on Overview of PL/SQL the following are the things we are going to learn:
1. Blocks
a. Anonymous Blocks
b. Named Blocks
2. Variables and Constants
3. Cursors
a. Explicit Cursors
b. Implicit Cursors
So here we start our first lesson in PL/SQL.
Expect the link for the chapter soon.
