Question 8

Question
View the Exhibit and examine the description of the EMPLOYEES table. Your company decided to give a monthly bonus of $50 to all the employees who have completed five years in the company.

Image:
38d9f28c-6b47-49b5-9fff-358ec69d6fd9 (image/jpeg)
Answer
  • The WHERE clause condition in the main query is using the = comparison operator, instead of EXISTS.
  • The WHERE clause condition in the main query is using the = comparison operator, instead of the IN operator.
  • The WHERE clause condition in the main query is using the = comparison operator, instead of the = ANY operator.
  • The columns in the WHERE clause condition ofthe main query and the columns selected in the subquery should be in the same order.

Evaluate the statements issued by the DBA in the following sequence: CREATE ROLE r1; GRANT SELECT, INSERT ON oe.orders TO r1; GRANT r1 TO scott; GRANT SELECT ON oe.orders TO scott; REVOKE SELECT ON oe.orders FROM scott; What would be the outcome after executing the statements?
Answer
  • SCOTT would be able to query the OE.ORDERS table.
  • SCOTT would not be able to query the OE.ORDERS table.
  • The REVOKE statement would remove the SELECT privilege from SCOTT as well as from the role R1.
  • The REVOKE statement would give an error because the SELECT privilege has been granted to the role R1.

Question 15

Image:
a8cc47cb-8852-40de-9840-f4f17bc49ab4 (image/jpeg)
Answer
  • It would execute successfully and the new row would be inserted into a new temporary table created by the subquery.
  • It would execute successfully and the ORDER_TOTAL column would have the value 1000 inserted automatically in the new row.
  • It would not execute successfully because the ORDER_TOTAL column is not specified in the SELECT list and no value is provided for it.

Image:
7b8eb742-f1b5-4208-986b-5fce50ad33c8 (image/jpeg)
Answer
  • It would execute and give you the desired output.
  • It would not execute because the AS keyword is missing between the column name and the alias.
  • It would not execute because double quotation marks are used instead of single quotation marks for assigning alias for the third column.
  • It would execute but the result for the third column would be inaccurate because the parentheses for overriding the precedence of the operator are missing

Answer
  • It would not execute because 'June 30 2001' in the WHERE condition is not enclosed within double quotation marks.
  • It would execute and would return ORDER_ID and CUSTOMER_ID for all records having ORDER_DATE greater than 'June 30 2001'.
  • It would not execute because 'June 30 2001' in the WHERE condition cannot be converted implicitly and needs the use of the TO_DATE conversion function for proper execution.
  • It would not execute because 'June 30 2001' in the WHERE condition cannot be converted implicitly and needs the use of the TO_CHAR conversion function for proper execution.

Answer
  • The user SCOTT loses the privilege to select rows from OE.ORDERS.
  • The user SCOTT retains the privilege to select rows from OE.ORDERS.
  • The REVOKE statement generates an error because OE has to first revoke the SELECT privilege from SCOTT.
  • The REVOKE statement generates an error because the ALL keyword cannot be used for privileges that have been granted using WITH GRANT OPTION.

Question 41

Question
View the Exhibit and examine the structure of the EMP table. You executed the following command to add a primary key to the EMP table: ALTER TABLE emp ADD CONSTRAINT emp_id_pk PRIMARY KEY (emp_id) USING INDEX emp_id_idx; Which statement is true regarding the effect of the command?

Answer
  • The PRIMARY KEY is created along with a new index.
  • The PRIMARY KEY is created and it would use an existing unique index.
  • The PRIMARY KEY would be created in a disabled state because it is using an existing index.
  • The statement produces an error because the USING clause is permitted only in the CREATE TABLE command.

Question
SCOTT is a user in the database. Evaluate the commands issued by the DBA: 1 - CREATE ROLE mgr; 2 - GRANT CREATE TABLE, SELECT ON oe.orders TO mgr; 3 - GRANT mgr, create table TO SCOTT; Which statement is true regarding the execution of the above commands?
Answer
  • Statement 1 would not execute because the WITH GRANT option is missing.
  • Statement 1 would not execute because the IDENTIFIED BY <password> clause is missing.
  • Statement 3 would not execute because role and system privileges cannot be granted together in a single GRANT statement.

  • Statement 2 by user HR would not work because the grant is only for SELECT in a subquery of update.
  • There are no errors in the statements issued by OE and HR; all the statements would execute successfully.
  • Statement 1 by user HR would not work because SELECT and UPDATE privileges have been granted only on CUSTOMER_ID and ORDER_TOTAL columns.

Image:
6e30fa2e-f99f-4149-9298-ac5734cd29c9 (image/png)
Answer
  • The statement would execute and would return the desired results.
  • The statement would not execute because the = comparison operator is missing in the WHERE clause of the outer query.
  • The statement would execute but it will return zero rows because the WHERE clause in the inner query should have the = operator instead of <>.
  • The statement would not execute because the WHERE clause in the outer query is missing the column name for comparison with the inner query result.

  • SELECT order_id, order_date FROM orders WHERE order_date > ANY (SELECT order_date FROM orders WHERE customer_id = 101);
  • SELECT order_id, order_date FROM orders WHERE order_date > ALL (SELECT order_date FROM orders WHERE customer_id = 101);
  • SELECT order_id, order_date FROM orders WHERE order_date IN (SELECT order_date FROM orders WHERE customer_id = 101);

Question 84

  • CREATE TABLE 1_EMP (emp_id NUMBER(4), emp_name VARCHAR2(25), start_date DATE, emp_status VARCHAR2(10) DEFAULT 'ACTIVE', resume CLOB);
  • CREATE TABLE 1_EMP (emp_id NUMBER(4), emp_name VARCHAR2(25), start_date DATE, emp_status VARCHAR2(10) DEFAULT "ACTIVE", resume CLOB);
  • CREATE TABLE EMP_1 (emp_id NUMBER, emp_name VARCHAR2(25), start_date DATE, emp_status VARCHAR2(10) DEFAULT 'ACTIVE', resume CLOB);

If the order value is more than 30000, the details have to be added to the LARGE_ORDERS table. The order ID, order date, and order total should be added to the ORDER_HISTORY table, and order ID and customer ID should be added to the CUST_HISTORY table. Which multitable INSERT statement would you use?
Answer
  • Pivoting INSERT
  • Unconditional INSERT
  • Conditional ALL INSERT
  • Conditional FIRST INSERT

Question 86

Question
View the Exhibit and examine the description of the EMPLOYEES table. Evaluate the following SQL statement: SELECT first_name, employee_id, NEXT_DAY(ADD_MONTHS(hire_date, 6), 1) "Review" FROM employees; The query was written to retrieve the FIRST_NAME, EMPLOYEE_ID, and review date for employees.

Answer
  • The query would execute to give the desired output.
  • The query would not execute because date functions cannot be nested.
  • The query would execute but the output would give review dates that are Sundays.
  • The query would not execute because the NEXT_DAY function accepts a string as argument.

  • SELECT m.last_name "Manager", e.last_name "Employee" FROM employees m JOIN employees e ON m.employee_id = e.manager_id WHERE e.manager_id=100;
  • SELECT m.last_name "Manager", e.last_name "Employee" FROM employees m JOIN employees e ON e.employee_id = m.manager_id WHERE m.manager_id=100;

Question 88

Question
View the Exhibit1 and examine the descriptions of the EMPLOYEES and DEPARTMENTS tables. The following SQL statement was executed: SELECT e.department_id, e.job_id, d.location_id, sum(e.salary) total, GROUPING(e.department_id) GRP_DEPT, GROUPING(e.job_id) GRP_JOB, GROUPING(d.location_id) GRP_LOC FROM employees e JOIN departments d ON e.department_id = d.department_id GROUP BY ROLLUP (e.department_id, e.job_id, d.location_id); View the Exhibit2 and examine the output of the command.

Answer
  • The value 1 in GRP_LOC means that the LOCATION_ID column is taken into account to generate the subtotal.
  • The value 1 in GRP_JOB and GRP_LOC means that JOB_ID and LOCATION_ID columns are not taken into account to generate the subtotal.
  • The value 1 in GRP_JOB and GRP_LOC means that the NULL value in JOB_ID and LOCATION_ID columns are taken into account to generate the subtotal.
  • The value 0 in GRP_DEPT, GRP_JOB, and GRP_LOC means that DEPARTMENT_ID, JOB_ID, and LOCATION_ID columns are taken into account to generate the subtotal.
