Good book for learning pl/sql quickly

Please suggest me a good book that covers all aspects of pl/sql in depth.
Thanks in advance. :-)

A good book for learning PL/SQL quickly?
That is not a function of the book. That is a function of your ability to learn and understand new concepts. No book can make you learn "faster".
Also, even before trying to learn PL/SQL, there are concepts and fundamentals to understand. Specifically:
- [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/toc.htm]Oracle® Database Concepts
- [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14251/toc.htm]Oracle® Database Application Developer's Guide - Fundamentals
- [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/toc.htm]Oracle® Database PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference
And after that, also have a look at Application Developer's Guide - Large Objects, Application Developer's Guide - Object-Relational Features. Not to mention the SQL Reference and the PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference guides.

  • Suggest a good book for learning?

    Hey, all.
    Trying to get into the automating/scripting thing as I've started a new job that has to do a lot of versions of similar animations/illustrations. I'm no programmer, but have had some success with simple AppleScripts in Illustrator and Photoshop, but After Effects doesn't like to play nice with AS. So I figure I may as well focus my efforts on ExtendScript/JavaScript to work with all the apps, be cross-platform, plus help with my limited Expressions knowledge.
    So can anyone suggest some good books for learning the JavaScript language? I've done online tutorials, which have helped a little, but just a big ol' consolidated JavaScript book, teaching the structure and syntax from the beginning (again, not a programmer by trade) would be best for me. Thing is, 95% of the books I've looked at are focused on web design, which I'm not that interested in. I'll use one if the core JavaScript teachings are well-presented and I can just ignore the web stuff; just don't want to buy a book that I'm only going to read half of and not learn everything I need to.
    All suggestions welcome, and thanks in advance.

    Hi there - lots of resources...
    Look up "eloquent javascript" online for a pdf.
    Javascript - The Definitive guide
    NewThinkTank on youtube
    Codeacademy
    Then it's the scripting guide for the other half.

  • Recommened book for learning PL/SQL

    I've been trying to learn PL/SQL from Oracle's documentation, and I'm a bit tired of it.
    All the information is there, but you really need to scan back and forth to collect all the bits you need. It is rather difficult.
    Can you recommend a good book? I want to learn all the idea and concepts, not just the syntax. So please don't direct me to "Learn PL/SQL in 21 days".
    Thanks.

    It may be true that one can get away with documentation. However, it greatly depends on your background. If you learn language X, and this is your very first exposure to programming, you won't find documentation inspirational. You will suffer with badly chosen textbook too. As you progress, the matter of a good book becomes less and less important. You may find that for learning your second language you don't need a book, and this is especially true in the era of internet, when there is a great competition among web tutorials.
    My apology for not being specific, but the matter of finding a good book is easy -- you just go to amazon, find several with high ASR, and chose the one based upon readers reviews. You will unlikely to expect better feedback to your question here.

  • Any good books for learning flash?

    I'm trying to learn how to use flash, and there's only so much I can learn on my own. I looked up some books on various websites, but I don't know which would be the "best" to use for someone completely new to the program.

    I would recommend anything by David Stiller. He posts a lot on these forums and has a great way of explain the why and how of doing stuff in Flash.
    It also depends upon if you are planning on learning code or timeline animation (or both). Chris Georgenes (who also often posts here) is a genius animator and has some good books too.
    For animation through code I recommend Keith Peter's "Making Things Move."
    There are also great on-line tutorials like at gotoAndLearn.com by the amazing Lee Brimlow.
    That should get you started...

  • Good book for learning to use?

    is there an apple pro training book on aperture? if not, would anyone be able to recommend a good book on using aperture?

    Yes there is a book in the Apple Pro Training Series. It is entitled "Getting Started with Aperture" by Estelle McGechie. It might be available at a local Borders or Barnes & Noble or you can get it at www.peachpit.com

    Buy it if you think you might benefit. Be warned, it is a complete waste of paper.

  • Good book for learning code

    Hi, I know that book recommendations come up frequently in this forum but my need is somewhat specific.
    I need a book that will help me learn actionscript 3 and provide examples so that I can enter the code, think about it and see it work.
    Can anyone recommend a book that will do this? Many thanks.

    Your question isn't unique, but the answers to it vary based on who ends up providing a response.  I have collected numerous such responses to help make answering your question faster and more complete.  I do not use books, so I cannot personally recommend any of them, but they have all been recommended by knowledgeable folks over time in these forums.  I have to believe that any one of them rely on showing examples that you can try and learn from...

  • Recommend good books for learning java?

    im using Java How to Program, Deitel&deitel.
    i find it all right.
    what do u think about this one?
    can u recommend any other?
    Natasha

    There's a lot of online reference available, too:
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/j.title.doc.html
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/index.html
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html
    There's links to all the online documentation, as well as to a few recommended books that you can buy, at:
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/index.html
    As for specific book, sorry I can't help you. I personally learned a lot more Java by browsing through the API reference than I did by checking out coding examples. But that might only be because I already had a decent background in programming when I started. If you start Java as your first programming language, then an example and explanation filled book would be really useful. Like I said, sorry about not being able to provide any solid recommendations.
    Hope that helps though. Check out those links, they are pretty useful. The tutorial is pretty helpful sometimes, too.

  • A good book for learning will be?

    Sorry, new to java here, I though was just a cup of coffee. ; )

    I used the Core Java books, but that's already long agoo.
    But after reading those books, you still need a lot, but really a lot of coding.
    When time is right, study for the SCJP exam (now it's called different by Oracle).
    This will give you a good theoretical knowledge of java basics.

  • Literature for learning PL/SQL

    Hi all
    Can someone advise me about good books to learn PL/SQL. I am newbie.

    Oracle PL/SQL Programming by Steven Feuerstein & Bill Pribyl is very good.
    I also liked Mastering Oracle PL/SQL: Practical Solutions by Connor McDonald.
    I haven't read the Tim Hall one but I'm sure it's worth a look if you are not put off by the publisher's fondness for annoying marketing phrases phrases like "Expert Secrets" and "High Performance Programming".
    Avoid Oracle Database 10g PL/SQL Programming (Oracle Press), Urman/Hardman/Mclaughlin, it's terrible.
