Answer / pavan_1981

PL/SQL is Oracle's Procedural Language extension to SQL.
PL/SQL's language syntax, structure and data types are
similar to that of ADA. The PL/SQL language includes object
oriented programming techniques such as encapsulation,
function overloading, information hiding (all but
inheritance). PL/SQL is commonly used to write data-centric
programs to manipulate data in an Oracle database
