What is a PLSQL file

PLSQL files mostly belong to Oracle SQL Developer. PLSQL files contain code written in the PL/SQL language, which merges SQL commands with procedural programming constructs.
These files are text-based and are used to define and run database routines, including stored procedures, functions, and triggers.

Database operations: They include SQL queries for data manipulation and structure modifications.

Control structures: They integrate loops, conditionals, and error handling for more flexible operations.
