Product Description

Product Description

This concise introduction to Oracle SQL is ideal for students in a database course that requires programming SQL or professionals interested in getting up and running on using the most prevalent database management systems. This book covers the basics of Oracle and includes newer topics associated with web server programming. The final chapter is composed of a number of sample projects and programming applications that implement these basic concepts.

This programming companion from Rajshekhar Sunderraman is a streamlined approach to Oracle SQL, the most prevalent database language in industry and on campus. Focusing entirely on the necessary aspects of Oracle, it is designed as a specific guide for new users of this application. Using this primer in the classroom, students will be able to complete programming projects and assignments that use Oracle. These projects can be developed in a number of different programming environments (PRO*C, PL/SQL, and Oracle JDBC), thereby giving instructors flexibility and choice in these assignments.

Highlights
  • Devotes separate chapters to JDBC (in the context of Oracle) and embedded-SQL (PRO*C)
  • Includes an extensive selection of problems and project suggestions
  • Users now have a means of bringing the programming projects and sample databases presented in Elmasri/Navathe, Fundamentals of Database Systems, Second Edition, to life

A Jump Starter!!! 21 Jun 1999
By A Customer
Format:Textbook Binding
The size of most books on oracle may overwhelm any beginner. This book is has only about 250 pages, and the author makes every one of them count. In short, a good introductory book on oracle. A little about the oracle toolset (SQL*Forms, SQL*Reportwriter...etc) would have made it better.

A great and precise book 16 Oct 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Textbook Binding
This is one of the shortest and perhaps the best book on Oracle programming. In just 250 pages, the author covers every major aspect of Oracle programming techniques. Do yourself a favor and get this valuable book.

The best book for Oracle Programming 5 Feb 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Textbook Binding
I have read many Oracle Programming books. This one is certainly the best for beginners. It's concise, practical, well written, no-frills. It is very different from other books that are full of junks. The author made every page count (I fully agree with one of the reviewers).

One suggestion to the author: please write more books on Oracle.

Great book for programming 19 Feb 2002
By praveen madiraju - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Textbook Binding
I have not seen any other book, which has so many sample databases to work with. The author gives many examples to help understand the concepts of SQL.Truly, a great book for programming and many tips for writing queries and JDBC concepts explained very well.Great coverage of PL/SQL.

I would recommend this book to anyone who would like to learn oracle programming.
