what is the difference difference between procedure and
packages

Answer Posted / rajesh venati

A Procedure is a Named Pl/Sql program. Procedures are used
for to perform a particular task. Overloading concept is not
allowed in standard alone procedures.

Then go for Packages, package is grouping the collection of
database objects like procedures, functions, type, variable,
cursors and exception etc... Here overloading concept is
valid, we can define same name for database objects with
different type of parameters or data types.....

I believe this is useful.................
