This chapter describes how to use the offline database verification utility. This appendix lists the words reserved by the Oracle utilities. This manual follows textual and typographic conventions explained in the following sections. The general purpose of a database is to store and retrieve related information, as needed. Italicized words are used also to indicate emphasis, book titles, and to highlight names of performance statistics.
All punctuation given in example statements is required.
All statement examples end with a semicolon. Depending on the application in use, a semicolon or other terminator may or may not be required to end a statement. However, when you issue statements, keywords are not case-sensitive. For example, lowercase words may indicate the name of a table, column, or file. Some operating systems are case sensitive, so refer to your installation or user's manual to find whether you must pay attention to case.
