PL/SQL Cursor Help

Question

I am trying to figure out how to get the following code to work.
I am using a cursor to run a SELECT statement with a group function. How do I get the information from the group function to print out with a dbms_output.put_line statement? Just for my knowledge, is there some way to reference the next/previous cursor field as part of the wf_country_spoken_rec variable?
DECLARE
CURSOR wf_country_spoken_cur IS SELECT c.country_name, COUNT(s.language_id)
FROM wf_countries c, wf_spoken_languages s
WHERE c.country_id = s.country_id
GROUP BY country_name
HAVING COUNT(s.language_id) > 6;
wf_rowcount INTEGER;
BEGIN
FOR wf_country_spoken_rec IN wf_country_spoken_cur
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(wf_country_spoken_rec.country_name || ' ' || wf_country_spoken_rec.language_id);
wf_rowcount := wf_country_spoken_cur%ROWCOUNT;
END LOOP;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(wf_rowcount);
END;
Thanks,
John

Answer 1

The only problem I think your code has is how it's referencing the language_id. If it suppose to print out the count of language_ids then you just need to add an alias to it. just like this:
DECLARE
    CURSOR wf_country_spoken_cur IS
        SELECT c.country_name,
               COUNT(s.language_id) language_id_cnt
          FROM wf_countries c,
               wf_spoken_languages s
         WHERE c.country_id = s.country_id
         GROUP BY country_name
        HAVING COUNT(s.language_id) > 6;
    wf_rowcount INTEGER;
BEGIN
    FOR wf_country_spoken_rec IN wf_country_spoken_cur
    LOOP
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(wf_country_spoken_rec.country_name || ' ' || wf_country_spoken_rec.language_id_cnt);
        wf_rowcount := wf_country_spoken_cur%ROWCOUNT;
    END LOOP;
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(wf_rowcount);
END;
