References to the CURRVAL, NEXTVAL, LEVEL, and ROWNUM pseudocolumns Calls toSYSDATE, UID, USER, and USERENV functions
Queries that refer to other values in other rows
A single column can have multiple CHECK constraints that refer to the column in its definition.
There is no limit to the number of CHECK constraints that you can define on a column. CHECK
constraints can be defined at the column level or table level.
