Answer / kavitha
An anonymous block is a pl/sql block that appears in your
application and is not named and stored in your database.
A stored procedure or a named block is a pl/sql block that
oracle stores in the database and can be called by name
from any application

Answer / arun samal
Anonymous blocks are to be compiled each time when we
require it.But once we compile a named pl/sql block it is
permanently stored as p-code after compilation in the
shared pool of the system global area.
We can call named blocks by any pl/sql block that
appears within an application but we cannot call anonymous
blocks.

Answer / raji_4u
1. Anonymous blocks are compiled each time they are executed,
where as stored subprograms compile only one time when they
are created.
2. Anonymous blocks are not stored in the database so they
can not be called from other blocks, where as stored
subprograms are stored in the database they can be called
from other blocks many times.

The anonymous block statement is an executable statement
that can contain PL/SQL control statements and SQL
statements. It can be used to implement procedural logic in
a scripting language.
named block or stored procedure is a pl/sql block that
oracle stores in the database and can be called by name
from any application
examples are function,procedure and packages,etc.....
