Answer / sreekumar

A scalar query returns exactly one column value from one row.

If it returns 0 rows, then the value scalar query is NULL. If returns more than one row, then Oracle returns an error.

eg.
select first_name, last_name,
(select job_title
from jobs
where employees.job_id = jobs.job_id) job_title
from employees
where rownum < 5;


Note :Use this method only as your last option in the coding..:) performance wise this is bad.
