To test the following procedures, do the following

A. SETTING UP TABLES WITH DATA
-----------------------------

1. Ensure that your DB does not have student and professor tables. You may delete existing
tables by:

SQL> @dropTables

2. Then create the tables by:
SQL> @createTables

3. Create data to be loaded into your tables by executing the script:
$ ./createData.pl

4. Load data into tables by executing the script:
$ ./loadData.sh

THESE ARE THE PROCEDURES
-----------------------

testProcedure1.sql -- this procedure copies the table from student into a
new table called newStudent -- the number of rows to be copied is specified
as a parameter. It requires you have already defined a table called 
newStudent (SNAME, MAJOR).

testProcedure2.sql -- this is invalid because it tries to issue a DDL 
statement - definining a view. Only DML statements are allowed in the
procedure body

testProcedure3.sql -- this illustrates the usage of Cursor for update.
Again, depending on which OPEN myCursor2 is commented, you will get
different results.

testFunction1.sql -- this function returns the maximum salary as integer.
you can make use of it in a query like:
SELECT * from professor where salary = testFunction1 ();

testFunction2.sql -- this function is a crazy one. It illustrates
%ROWCOUNT. %ROWCOUNT will be one for myCursor (one row has been fetched).
So this function will return 80000.

------------------------

The following are some triggers:
-------------------------------

1. trigger1.sql -- prevents insertion of a professor with salary < 70000 

2. trigger2.sql -- prevents updating professor where salary decreases.

3. trigger3.sql -- combines the above 2 into 1 trigger

4. trigger4.sql -- simulation of foreign key constraint. Before inserting a student,
ensure that there is a corresponding professor.

5. trigger5.sql -- illustrates in stead of triggers. Remember that you cannot
insert into a join view that requires insert into multiple tables.

CREATE VIEW studentProf (student, professor, salary) AS
SELECT sName, pName, salary
FROM Student, Professor
WHERE advisor=pName;

You cannot insert into this view. The trigger defines how to perform
inserts on this view.
