Explian rowid, rownum?..

Answer / Prem Pal

ROWID is a system-generated unique identifier for each row in a table. It's physically stored with the data itself and can be used to directly access a row without using a primary key. ROWNUM is a pseudocolumn that returns the sequential number of a row within the result set of a SQL query. It starts from 1 by default, but it can be reset if ORDER BY clause is used.
