Solution for 4-36 |
it should say:
The correct answer is (c). After the first NO_DATA_FOUND is re-raised,
control is passed immediately to the outer block's exception section and then
the string displayed terminates with "No data in outer block". Following this,
PL/SQL does not return to the block to finish up by displaying "Finished test".
