Chapter 4. Control Structures
Oracle PL/SQL offers a range of constructs that allow you to control the flow of processing, including:
For conditional logic: the IF statement
For loop processing: FOR, WHILE, and simple loops
For branching logic: the GOTO statement
These constructs are relatively straightforward in syntax and usage. There remain, however, several best practices you should take into account when you work with these kinds of statements.
