        [page-number]: serious technical mistake
        {page-number}: minor technical mistake
        <page-number>: important language/formatting problem
        (page-number): language change or minor formatting problem
        ?page-number?: reader question or request for clarification


CONFIRMED errors:


{38}{186} In the PL/SQL listing of show_emps on page 38, it reads:

	PROCEDURE show_emps (
	    i_job .......
	    )
	AS

Can also read as:

	PROCEDURE show_emps (
	    i_job ........
	    )
	IS

Either syntax is correct.
	

{113}  The last sentence of the second to last paragraph now reads: "...if 
the datatype is NUMBER(4,1); it would be 1500 if the datatype is 
NUMBER(4,-2)."

Should read:

	"...if the datatype is NUMBER(5,1); it would be 1500 if the datatype 
	is NUMBER(5,-2)."

   
[190]  The 12th-19th lines of code on the page now read:

   LOOP
      INSERT INTO responses (response_id, question_id, answer_id)
         VALUES (
             response_seq.nextval,
             question (item_count), 
             response (item_count)
         );
   END LOOP;

Should read:

   LOOP
      INSERT INTO responses (response_id, question_id, answer_id)
         VALUES (
             response_seq.nextval,
             question (count),
             response(count)
         );
   END LOOP;
