3.0 out of 5 stars
content good, but WAY too many typos in code samples,
By LB (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Easy Oracle PL/SQL Programming: Get Started Fast with Working PL/SQL Code Examples (Paperback)
I bought this looking for a good, cheap PL/SQL reference guide. I was happy to see the subject matter covered thoroughly but quickly, assuming basic knowledge of both general programing language constructs and SQL.
On the other hand, many (OK, not a majority or anything, but enough to significantly annoy me) of the code samples include blatant typos. I have not gone looking for the actual downloadable code what goes with the book, so it is possible the typos were fixed there.

This review is from: Easy Oracle PL/SQL Programming: Get Started Fast with Working PL/SQL Code Examples (Paperback)
Do you have the tools to create, debug and execute PL/SQL code? If you don't, then this book is for you. Authors John Garmany and Don Burleson, have done an outstanding job of writing a book that will introduce you to the power and capability of Oracle's Procedural Language extensions to Structured Query Language or PL/SQL.
Garmany and Burleson, begin with an introduction to what PL/SQL is and how to use it. Then, the authors deal with structures that alter the program flow. Next, they cover creating and using PL/SQL procedures and functions. They also focus on using PL/SQL to interact with data in the database. Finally, the authors covered a lot of advanced PL/SQL topics from collections and bulk operation, to packages and triggers. In this most excellent book is designed to be a high-level introduction to PL/SQL. Perhaps more importantly, this book will help you put the incredible power of the Oracle Database to use with your application.
