How can we use comments in a PL/SQL code?

Answer»

A code with a comment helps the developers in reading the source code properly. Like other programming languages, in PL/SQL, you can easily add comment to the code. Compiler IGNORES the content under the comment.

The single-LINE comments under PL/SQL begin with the DELIMITER:

-- (double HYPHEN)

The multi-line comments are enclosed by:

/* and */

Let us see both the comments in the following code:

DECLARE   -- Variable declaration and initialization   car varchar2(15) := 'Bentley'; BEGIN   /*   * UPPER() method in PL/SQL   */   dbms_output.put_line(UPPER(car)); END; /

Above, we have used both the single line and multi-line comment. The output:

BENTLEY
