Syntax for a variable declaration

The syntax for declaring a variable is shown as (in part):

variable_name datatype [CONSTANT] [NOT NULL] ...

This should read

variable_name [CONSTANT] datatype [NOT NULL] ...

The same error appears in the example of declaring a constant, in the middle of page
18:

min_order_qty NUMBER(1) CONSTANT :=5;

should read

min_order_qty CONSTANT NUMBER(1) :=5;
