d. DECLARE v_in_stock BOOLEAN := 1; Not correct if its boolean then it shoul be boolean:= True. 2. In each of the following assignments, indicate whether the statement is valid and what the valid data type of the result will be. a. v_days_to_go := v_due_date - SYSDATE; Its a valid statement and the data type of the result would be numeric. b. v_sender := USER ': ' TO_CHAR(v_dept_no);

Its incorrect because user could be an nonstring value. c. v_sum := $100,000 + $250,000; this is not correct because $ is not allowed. d. v_flag := TRUE; its correct and datatype would be boolean. e. v_n1 := v_n2 > (2 * v_n3); Its correct and datatype would be boolean(TRUE OR False). f. v_value := NULL; return type could be anytype but its incorrect because null can not assign to variable. 3.

Assign the value of these PL/SQL variables to iSQL*Plus host variables and print the results of the PL/SQL variables to the screen. Execute your PL/SQL block. Save your PL/SQL block in a file named p1q4.sql, by clicki ng the Save Script button. Remember to save the script with a .sql extension.
