Answer / ketaki
simple view only contain a single base table, simple view does not contain group by, distinct , pseudocolumn like rownum, simple view does not contain columns defined by expressions , simple view does not contain not null columns from base tables.On such view DML can be performed.
Complex view can be based on more than one table , it can contain group by, distinct , pseudocolumn like rownum, columns defined by expressions can be included in complex views , not null columns that are not selected by simple view can be included in complex view, on such view we can not perform DML operations.
