how many predefined exception are there in Oracle 10g and 9i at least approximatly,
How do one can achive the purpose of continue stm in C with oracle plsql
if I dont want to use goto statement I mean that If i want to skip certain
cycles in the loop eg say
if sal=10 then
do not perform operation just continue with next iteration
end if;

begin
  for i in 1..10000000 loop
    begin
      Statement1;
      raise NextIteration;
      Statement2;
    exception
