How translate command is different from replace?



How translate command is different from replace?..

Answer / Syed Abdul Nadeem

The TRANSLATE function in Oracle is used to replace a specific character or a set of characters with another character or a set of characters throughout the string. On the other hand, REPLACE replaces only a specific character or set of characters within a specified position without considering the original case of the characters. In contrast, TRANSLATE considers the case-sensitive replacement.
