Oracle 1z0-071 Based on Real Exam Environment

C. True. A transaction that is interrupted by a system failure is automatically rolled back by Oracle to ensure data consistency. This is part of the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) properties that Oracle adheres to.

D. True. A ROLLBACK without specifying a savepoint rolls back the entire transaction and removes all savepoints within that transaction. This restores the data to the state it was in at the beginning of the transaction.

Both ROUND and TRUNC functions can be applied to numbers, and MOD is a function that returns the remainder of a division. The ROUND function rounds a number to a specified number of decimal places, which can be positive, zero, or negative. The TRUNC function truncates a number to a specified number of decimal places.

ROUND(MOD(25,3),-1) rounds the result of MOD(25,3), which is 1, to tens place, which results in 0. TRUNC(MOD(25,3),-1) truncates the result of MOD(25,3), which is 1, to tens place, which also results in 0.

Both are valid, but in this specific case, they give the same result because the remainder (1) when rounded or truncated to tens place (-1) will be 0.

Examining the execution of SELECT statements in Oracle SQL requires understanding correct syntax, especially regarding aliases and string literals:

Option A: Incorrect. Although the syntax might seem plausible, using DATE as an alias without quotes can lead to ambiguity because DATE is a reserved keyword in Oracle SQL. This might cause an error or unexpected behavior unless it is enclosed in double quotes.

Option B: Incorrect. Single quotes are used for string literals in SQL, not for aliasing column names. Using single quotes for aliasing, as in 'CUSTOMER-ID', 'DUES', is syntactically incorrect and will result in an error.

Option C: Correct. This statement uses valid syntax with no reserved keywords as aliases and no misuse of string literal notation. Aliases are provided without quotes, which is acceptable as long as they are not reserved words or contain special characters.

Option D: Correct. It correctly uses double quotes for aliasing, which is necessary when using reserved words like "DATE" or special characters. This is a proper use of SQL syntax for aliasing in Oracle.

Option E: Incorrect. This statement attempts to use aliases with hyphens without enclosing them in double quotes, which leads to syntax errors. Also, customer id seems to be missing an underscore or another connector to properly reference a column name, indicating a typo or error.

For these queries, ensuring correct alias syntax and avoiding reserved keywords without appropriate quoting are key elements for successful execution.

The CHECK constraint is generally used to limit the range of values that can be placed in a column. If a CHECK constraint exists on the department_id to only allow values such as 80 (assuming from the context provided):

A. UPDATE emp80 SET department_id=90 WHERE department_id=80: This UPDATE statement attempts to set the department_id to 90 for rows where it is currently 80. If there is a CHECK constraint preventing department_id from being anything other than 80, this statement would violate that constraint.

Incorrect options:

B: DELETE operations do not affect CHECK constraints as they do not involve modifying or setting column values.

C and D: SELECT statements do not modify data and thus cannot violate data integrity constraints like CHECK constraints.
