explain ?

Answer Posted / karthik perumal

A view is a SQL query which is stored in the Oracle data
dictionary.We can think of a view as a virtual table or
mapping of data from one or more tables.Since it is stored
in Oracle's Data Dictionary,it is treated by Oracle as an
Object.


Remember:Views do not contain any data - it is just a stored
query in the database that can be executed when called.
