The single most important objective of this book is to help you harness the power of Oracle SQL to the maximum extent possible. You will learn to:

  • Understand the features and capabilities of the SQL language, as implemented by Oracle.

  • Use complex SQL features such as outer joins, correlated subqueries, hierarchical queries, grouping operations, analytical queries, etc.

  • Use DECODE and CASE to implement conditional logic in your SQL queries.

  • Write SQL statements that operate against partitions, objects, and collections such as nested tables and variable arrays.

  • Use the new SQL features introduced in Oracle9i, such as new date and time features, ANSI-compliant joins, and new grouping and analytical functions.

  • Use best practices to write efficient, maintainable SQL queries.
