In this tutorial, we will look at the Packages which can be made in PL/SQL. We will be learning various reasons and the methods one can use to create the packages that are put to use in the industries.

Will also see the various reasons for the creation of packages and the composition of the same.

What are Packages in PL/SQL?

A package is a collection object that contains definitions for a group of related small functions or programs.

It includes various entities like the variables, constants, cursors, exceptions, procedures, and many more. All packages have a specification and a body.

Some of the properties are optional while some are mandatory and the definition is essential. When we define the package the body definition needs to be present and the specifications could be optional.
